项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This R13 application requests support for the Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Alcohol and the Nervous System that will take place in February 2016 and 2018 at the historic Hotel Galvez in Galveston, TX. The inaugural GRC on this topic took place in 2014 and was considered a tremendous success by all attendees. This application seeks to build on the success of the first meeting by bringing together young and established alcohol researchers, as well as preeminent scientists from related fields, to discuss the latest groundbreaking developments in neuroscience research on alcohol-related health issues. The central goal will be to foster deep and open discussion of research developments, build new scientific collaborations, and propel the next generation of scientific advances in alcohol neuroscience research. The following four specific aims will ensure that we accomplish this goal: 1) To provide an international forum that promotes open discussion of cutting edge research at the forefront of alcohol effects on the nervous system and related neuroscience areas. 2) To introduce breakthrough neuroscience techniques that facilitate the understanding of brain mechanisms driving alcohol drinking and abuse, as well as mechanisms involved in fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. 3) To promote interaction between young and senior investigators and the exchange of ideas that will shape the future directions of the alcohol neuroscience community. 4) To foster the development of the next generation of alcohol researchers by encouraging the participation of students and postdoctoral fellows, both in alcohol and related research fields. The "Alcohol and the Nervous System" GRC will focus on presentations and discussions at the forefront of our field. The scope of the research presented will be restricted to basic and clinical studies involving alcohol and the nervous system as well as groundbreaking new neuroscience techniques that can be brought to bear on the greatest challenges facing our field. Talks will address questions centered on the neural substrates that contribute to alcohol-related health disorders across the entire lifespan. The unique GRC format is ideal for breaking down barriers to progress and includes formal talks interspersed with ample discussion time, poster sessions, and informal discussion periods designed to stimulate communication, planning, and collaboration. To foster the growth of the next generation of alcohol researchers, we will put concerted efforts into encouraging and supporting participation of students, postdoctoral fellows and young investigators. Thus, this R13 will foster communication of frontier alcohol research, opportunities for cutting edge scientific collaboration, and entry of new and younger investigators into the alcohol research field. We envision the GRC on "Alcohol and the Nervous System" will significantly advance our current understanding of the neurobiology of alcohol addiction and stimulate the development of effective therapeutic approaches for the treatment of alcohol use disorders.

描述（由申请提供）：此R13申请要求对戈登研究会议（GRC）关于酒精和神经系统的支持，将于2016年2月和2018年在德克萨斯州加尔维斯顿的历史悠久的酒店加尔维斯举行。关于该主题的首届GRC发生在2014年，所有与会者都被认为是巨大的成功。该申请旨在以第一次会议的成功为基础，通过将年轻和成熟的酒精研究人员以及来自相关领域的杰出科学家汇集在一起，讨论与酒精有关的健康问题的神经科学研究的最新开创性发展。中心目标是促进对研究发展，建立新的科学合作的深入而开放的讨论，并推动酒精神经科学研究中的下一代科学进步。以下四个具体目标将确保我们实现了这一目标：1）提供一个国际论坛，该论坛促进对酒精对神经系统和相关神经科学领域的尖端研究的开放讨论。 2）引入突破性的神经科学技术，以促进对驾驶饮酒和滥用饮酒和滥用的大脑机制的理解以及涉及胎儿酒精谱系障碍的机制。 3）促进年轻和高级研究人员之间的互动以及将塑造酒精神经科学社区未来方向的思想交流。 4）通过鼓励学生和博士后研究员的参与，包括酒精和相关研究领域，以促进下一代酒精研究人员的发展。 “酒精与神经系统” GRC将重点关注我们领域最前沿的演示和讨论。提出的研究范围将仅限于涉及酒精和神经系统的基础和临床研究，以及开创性的新神经科学技术，这些技术可以承受我们领域面临的最大挑战。谈判将解决以神经疗法为中心的问题，这些神经过程会导致整个生命中与酒精有关的健康障碍。独特的GRC格式是打破进步障碍的理想选择，并包括散布着充足的讨论时间，海报会议以及旨在刺激沟通，计划和协作的非正式讨论期的正式演讲。为了促进下一代酒精研究人员的成长，我们将努力鼓励和支持学生，博士后研究员和年轻调查人员的参与。这是R13将促进边境酒精研究，最先进的科学合作的机会以及新的和年轻的研究人员进入酒精研究领域的机会。我们设想“酒精和神经系统”的GRC将大大提高我们目前对酒精成瘾神经生物学的理解，并刺激有效治疗酒精使用障碍的有效治疗方法的发展。
