 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We request partial support for the 19th Chronobiology Gordon Research Conference (GRC) and the accompanying now 2nd Gordon Research Seminar (GRS), which will be held in Girona (Spain) from June 27 to July 3, 2015. Funds received from the NIH will be used to support registration fees for GRC and GRS participants, especially postdoctoral fellows and graduate students. The conference will focus on key research areas in chronobiology - a very interdisciplinary field continuously and increasingly attracting scientists from many diverse research areas including but not limited to neuroscience, behavior (including sleep), metabolism, aging, cancer and immunology. The subtheme of the conference is "Biological rhythms: mechanisms - functions - implications for health" emphasizing not only the integration of diverse research fields and organisms (from bacteria to humans) but also the more and more recognized critical importance of circadian clocks for health and disease. All speakers and discussion leaders work at the forefront of science and have been selected in consultation with renowned figures in our field representing the breadth of chronobiology research, leading to an extremely high-quality program. Special attention has been given (in the speaker selection process) and will be given (in the registration process) to cultural diversity, gender balance as well as to incorporating young upcoming scientists (~35% of invited speakers of the GRC are at the Assistant Professor level). Training will be further integrated in the program by (i) assigning four additional Late-Breaking Topic talk to students and postdoctoral fellows based on submitted abstracts and (ii) reserving four talk slots for young scientists at the student and postdoctoral level selected from the preceding GRS taking place for the second time after being highly successful in 2013.The specific objectives of the 2015 conference are: 1. To provide a forum for free, unhampered discussion of the latest (unpublished) chronobiology research. This conference will feature several new measures towards this objective. 2. To bring together scientists from diverse research levels ranging from those focusing more on molecular aspects of chronobiology over physiological and organismal levels up to translational researchers studying the importance of circadian clocks for health and disease. We expect representatives from industry in attendance, which will help in this process. 3. To identify priority themes for future research (neuroscience (including sleep), aging, metabolism, immunology, pathologies etc.) by openly debating knowledge gaps and especially controversies. 4. To continuously foster interactions between trainees and senior researchers by providing a high-quality and accessible arena for scientists at very different stages of their careers.

 描述（由申请人提供）：我们请求为第 19 届时间生物学戈登研究会议 (GRC) 和随之而来的第二届戈登研究研讨会 (GRS) 提供部分支持，该研讨会将于 2015 年 6 月 27 日至 7 月 3 日在赫罗纳（西班牙）举行从 NIH 获得的资金将用于支持 GRC 和 GRS 参与者的注册费，特别是博士后研究员和研究生。会议将重点关注关键研究。时间生物学领域——一个非常跨学科的领域，不断且越来越多地吸引来自许多不同研究领域的科学家，包括但不限于神经科学、行为（包括睡眠）、新陈代谢、衰老、癌症和免疫学。会议的副主题是“生物节律：机制”。 - 功能 - 对健康的影响”不仅强调不同研究领域和生物体（从细菌到人类）的整合，而且还强调人们越来越认识到生物钟对于健康和疾病的至关重要性。所有演讲者和讨论领导者都在处于科学前沿，并且是在与我们领域代表时间生物学研究广度的知名人士协商后选出的，从而产生了一个极其高质量的节目（在演讲者选择过程中）并将受到特别关注。培训将通过以下方式进一步纳入该计划：(i) 分配。与学生进行的另外四个最新热点话题和博士后研究员根据提交的摘要和（ii）为学生和博士后级别的年轻科学家保留四个演讲空位，这些年轻科学家是在2013年取得巨大成功后第二次举办的GRS中选出的。2015年会议的具体目标是： 1. 为最新（未发表的）时间生物学研究提供一个自由、不受阻碍的讨论的论坛。 2. 汇集不同研究水平的科学家。从更多关注生理和生物层面的时间生物学分子方面的人员到研究生物钟对健康和疾病重要性的转化研究人员，我们期待业界代表出席，这将有助于这一过程 3. 确定优先主题。通过公开辩论知识差距，特别是争议，促进未来的研究（神经科学（包括睡眠）、衰老、新陈代谢、免疫学、病理学等） 4. 通过提供高质量的培训，不断促进学员和高级研究人员之间的互动。为处于职业生涯不同阶段的科学家提供便利的舞台。
