DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application requests support for the Eighth to Tenth Annual Meetings of the Organization April 24-26, 2014 on the Twin Cities Campus of the University of Minnesota, with the 2015 for the Study of Sex Differences (OSSD). The Eighth Annual Meeting of the OSSD will be held meeting sponsored by Stanford University (and held in San Francisco, CA) and the 2016 meeting sponsored by the University of Pennsylvania. The mission of the OSSD is to enhance knowledge of the biological basis of sex/gender differences in health and disease by facilitating interdisciplinary communication and collaboration among scientists and clinicians from diverse scientific and professional backgrounds. The primary goal of the OSSD annual meeting is to provide a forum for scientists to explore aspects of sex differences research at the genetic, molecular, cellular, organ, and systems levels in humans and model systems. The annual meeting consists of three independent symposia (one focused on New Investigators), ten parallel session symposia, and two poster sessions (highlighting the work of new investigators and trainees). Preliminary symposium topics for the 2014 meeting include: treatment of disorders of sexual development and gender dysphoria; sex differences in epigenetic mechanisms; sex differences in addiction; sex differences in response to neonatal hypoxic insult; report from the NIH SCOR programs; sex differences in drug and device development; sex, hypertension and the immune system; sex differences in the research pipeline; sex specific risk for cardiovascular disease; sex and gender differences in eating disorders. The OSSD Program Committee selects symposia topics from among proposals submitted by the membership. Proposals were selected on the basis of scientific merit, relevance to the goals of the OSSD, a balance of basic and clinical speakers, and rotation of topics of interest across annual meetings. The size and format of this meeting (150-200 participants) provides an excellent opportunity for networking opportunities and interactive discussions. Funds are requested to support registration fees for invited speakers (established, junior and trainee), travel expenses for junior investigators and trainees, and expenses related to the OSSD Annual Meeting Program Book and necessary audio-visual equipment rentals and associated technical support. The annual meeting program, including speaker and poster abstracts will be freely available on the OSSD website. We will partner with the University of Minnesota and the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN to organize this event and will request support from the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, local businesses, and private donors and foundations to help cover non-NIH costs.

说明（由申请人提供）：本申请请求支持 2014 年 4 月 24 日至 26 日在明尼苏达大学双城校区举行的该组织第八届至第十届年会，以及 2015 年性别差异研究 (OSSD) 。 OSSD第八届年会将由斯坦福大学主办（并在加利福尼亚州旧金山举行），2016年会议将由宾夕法尼亚大学主办。 OSSD 的使命是通过促进来自不同科学和专业背景的科学家和临床医生之间的跨学科交流与合作，增强对健康和疾病中性别差异的生物学基础的了解。 OSSD年会的主要目标是为科学家提供一个论坛，探讨人类和模型系统的遗传、分子、细胞、器官和系统水平上的性别差异研究。年会由三场独立研讨会（一场专注于新研究者）、十场平行会议研讨会和两场海报会议（重点关注新研究者和实习生的工作）组成。 2014年会议的初步研讨会主题包括：性发育障碍和性别不安的治疗；表观遗传机制的性别差异；成瘾的性别差异；对新生儿缺氧损伤反应的性别差异； NIH SCOR 项目的报告；药物和器械开发中的性别差异；性、高血压和免疫系统；研究渠道中的性别差异；心血管疾病的性别特定风险；饮食失调的性别和性别差异。 OSSD 计划委员会从会员提交的提案中选择研讨会主题。提案的选择基于科学价值、与 OSSD 目标的相关性、基础和临床演讲者的平衡以及年度会议中感兴趣主题的轮换。本次会议的规模和形式（150-200 名参与者）为交流机会和互动讨论提供了绝佳的机会。请求资金用于支持受邀演讲者（已确定的、初级的和实习生）的注册费、初级研究员和实习生的差旅费、与 OSSD 年会计划书相关的费用以及必要的视听设备租赁和相关技术支持。年会议程，包括演讲者和海报摘要将在 OSSD 网站上免费提供。我们将与明尼苏达大学和明尼苏达州罗彻斯特的梅奥诊所合作组织此次活动，并将请求制药和生物技术行业、当地企业以及私人捐助者和基金会的支持，以帮助支付非 NIH 费用。
