PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The funds requested in this application are for partial support of the 6th Molecular Mechanisms of Axon Degeneration Meeting (Axon 6) to be held at The Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine, in September 2016. The Axon 6 meeting gathers senior scientists, junior faculty, post-doctoral fellows and graduate students for 3 full days of scientific idea exchange. Across ten plenary sessions and two poster sessions ~150 attendees will present work on the basic biological mechanisms underlying axon degeneration and associated disease pathophysiology. The meeting provides an excellent training opportunity for students, fellows and junior investigators to gain expertise, initiate collaborations and share leading-edge research results. The Axon Degeneration meeting is unique because it focuses specifically on the cellular and molecular mechanisms of axon degeneration, potential targets for prevention of degeneration and axon regeneration. Up to ten scholarships and associated travel awards will be given to eligible early-career scientists (junior faculty, post- doctoral fellows and graduate students) who demonstrate need, preference will be given to early career scientists from groups under-represented in the biomedical sciences.

项目摘要/摘要 本应用中要求的资金是为了部分支持轴突的第六个分子机制 堕落会议（AXON 6）将于9月在缅因州巴港的杰克逊实验室举行 2016年。轴突6会议聚集了高级科学家，初级教职员工，博士后研究员和研究生 整整三天的科学思想交流。在十个全体会议和两个海报会议上〜150 与会者将介绍有关轴突变性和相关的基本生物学机制的工作 疾病病理生理学。会议为学生，研究员和 初级研究人员获得专业知识，启动合作并分享领先的研究结果。轴突 变性会议之所以独特，是因为它专门针对的是细胞和分子机制 轴突变性，预防变性和轴突再生的潜在靶标。最多十 奖学金和相关旅行奖将向合格的早期科学家（初级教师，后 博士研究员和研究生）表明需要，偏爱早期职业 来自生物医学科学中代表性不足的群体的科学家。
