项目摘要

Abstract This proposal is to provide support for junior investigators, post-doctoral fellows, and students to attend the Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Neurotrophic Mechanisms in Health and Disease. The meeting will be held in Salve Regina University, Newport RI from June 2-7, 2019. Neurotrophic factors, broadly defined as factors that have critical roles in circuit connectivity, synaptic plasticity, and behavior, are essential for the development, maintenance, and functions of the nervous system. Importantly, several treatments that exploit knowledge of neurotrophin biology are now in human clinical trials for chronic pain, Alzheimer’s disease, and cancer. Thus, diverse communities of basic researchers and clinicians address problems rooted in neurotrophin biology. The 2019 Neurotrophic Mechanisms in Health and Disease GRC is unique in bringing together a multi- disciplinary group of researchers in areas spanning fundamental problems in molecular and cellular neuroscience to translating neurotrophin biology into therapies. This meeting will provide a unique venue to integrate basic research on neurotrophic factor biology with clinical needs and industry interest, with the ultimate goal of accelerating the development and adoption of new treatments for human neurological conditions, psychiatric diseases, and some forms of cancers. The conference will bring together speakers, many new to the meeting, who will speak to the intersection of neurotrophin biology with circuit formation, learning and memory, depression, chronic pain, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and chronic inflammation. Additional topics and late- breaking developments will be incorporated via talks selected from abstracts, specifically encouraging participation of junior researchers. Several new features distinguish the 2019 GRC Neurotrophic Factor conference from earlier meetings. These include an emphasis on the intersection of neurotrophin biology with systems approaches and therapeutic avenues, recruitment of a cohort of junior investigators new to our meeting who will speak to emerging areas and will provide fresh perspectives, introduction of a faculty mentoring system for junior trainees, and offering family friendly policies such as on-site child-care and subsidies to offset costs of childcare/accommodation.

抽象的该提案旨在为初级研究员、博士后研究员和学生参加提供支持戈登健康与疾病神经营养机制研究会议 (GRC) 会议将举行。于 2019 年 6 月 2 日至 7 日在罗德岛州纽波特 Salve Regina 大学举行。神经营养因子，广义定义为在电路连接、突触可塑性和行为中起关键作用的因素对于重要的是，有几种利用神经系统的治疗方法。神经营养蛋白生物学知识目前正在针对慢性疼痛、阿尔茨海默病和因此，不同的基础研究人员和倡导者群体致力于解决根源于神经营养蛋白的问题。生物学。 2019 年健康与疾病中的神经营养机制 GRC 的独特之处在于汇集了多种涵盖分子和细胞基本问题领域的学科研究人员小组神经科学将神经营养蛋白生物学转化为治疗方法。将神经营养因子生物学的基础研究与临床需求和行业兴趣相结合，最终实现加速开发和采用人类神经疾病新疗法的目标，会议将汇集精神疾病和某些形式的癌症的演讲者，其中许多是新来的。会议，谁将谈论神经营养蛋白生物学与电路形成、学习和记忆的交叉点，抑郁症、慢性疼痛、癌症、阿尔茨海默病和慢性炎症。突破性进展将通过从摘要中选出的演讲纳入其中，特别是鼓励初级研究人员的参与。 2019 年 GRC 神经营养因子会议与之前的会议有几个新特点。其中包括强调神经营养蛋白生物学与系统方法和治疗的交叉点途径，招募一批新加入我们会议的初级调查员，他们将在新兴领域发表演讲并将提供新的视角，为初级学员引入教师指导制度，并提供家庭友好型政策，例如现场儿童保育和抵消儿童保育/住宿费用的补贴。
