Project Summary / Abstract The mission of the International Photodynamic Association (IPA) is to promote basic, translational, and clinical research in photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photodiagnosis (PD), modalities which involve treatment and diagnosis of human disease using light-activated molecules called photosensitizers. The IPA is hosting the 17th Biennial World Congress to be held in handicap accessible Boston Marriot Cambridge Hotel in Cambridge, MA from June 28-July 4, 2019. The conference will be chaired by Dr. Tayyaba Hasan, Professor at Harvard Medical School, who has extensive experience chairing and organizing scientific conferences. A summary of the Conference plan is presented here. Highlights of the plan are: 1.) It is hoped that the Conference will open with lectures from 2 Nobel Laureates to inspire the young and established scientists. 2.) PDT School to provide an overview of the field to a broad audience. 3.) A clinical workshop to highlight recent FDA and other worldwide approvals regarding relevant drugs and devices, and to identify a way forward for Image Guided Resection and Image-Guided PDT. (No human subjects). 4.) A workshop/brainstorming session with clinicians, basic scientists, engineers, NIH personnel, industry and venture capital representatives to carve a “Roadmap for Impact” where PDT & PD may occupy a unique niche. 5.) Events to assist early career scientists, young investigators, women, and minorities from groups that have been traditionally underrepresented in science to network to help sustain interest in PDT & PD. As with past meetings, this conference will bring together students, postdoctoral fellows, independent researchers, representatives from industry, and clinicians practicing and researching PDT & PD to exchange information, share cutting-edge discoveries and challenges encountered, and encourage collaboration in order to effectively translate PDT & PD based technologies into the clinic. To this end, a number of leading researchers in the field have committed their support for the conference and agreed to present their work and offer their perspective on the field in the form of invited lectures. Students, researchers, and industry reps will be invited to submit abstracts for either oral or poster presentations, which will be then be selected by the conference Program Committee. A series of workshops and discussion sessions will be held to facilitate interaction among attendees from basic, translational, clinical, and industrial research backgrounds. The majority of funds requested in this application would go towards providing financial assistance for registration and travel for individuals from groups that have been traditionally underrepresented in science. As this Congress will be held in the USA for the first time in a decade, we expect significant excitement among the community, especially for researchers and companies based in the US, and anticipate 400-600 attendees. The impact on public health will be derived from the “Roadmap for Impact” for applications of Optical Imaging and PDT in medicine that underlies the ethos of the conference.

项目摘要 /摘要 国际光动力协会（IPA）的使命是促进基本，翻译和临床 光动力疗法（PDT）和光诊断（PD）的研究，涉及治疗和 使用称为光敏剂的光激活分子对人类疾病的诊断。 IPA主持17号 两年一的世界大会将在马萨诸塞州剑桥市的障碍赛访问的波士顿马里奥剑桥酒店举行 从2019年6月28日至7月4日。会议将由哈佛大学教授Tayyaba Hasan博士主持 医学院，拥有主持和组织科学会议的丰富经验。摘要 会议计划在这里介绍。该计划的亮点是：1。）希望会议将开放 带有来自2个诺贝尔奖获得者的演讲，以激发年轻和成熟的科学家。 2.）PDT学校 向广泛的受众提供该领域的概述。 3.）一个临床研讨会，以突出最近的FDA和其他 全球批准有关相关药物和设备的批准，并确定图像指导的前进道路 切除和图像引导的PDT。 （没有人类主题）。 4.）与 临床医生，基础科学家，工程师，NIH人员，工业和风险投资，代表一个 PDT＆PD可能占据独特的利基市场的“撞击路线图”。 5.）事件有助于早期职业 传统上的科学家，年轻的调查员，妇女和少数群体 在科学领域的代表性不足，可以帮助维持对PDT＆PD的兴趣。 与过去的会议一样，这次会议将召集学生，博士后研究员，独立 研究人员，代表行业和临床医生实践和研究PDT＆PD进行交换 信息，共享尖端的发现和遇到的挑战，并鼓励合作 有效地将基于PDT和PD的技术转化为诊所。为此，许多领先 该领域的研究人员已向会议提供了支持，并同意介绍他们的工作， 以受邀的讲座的形式提供他们对该领域的看法。学生，研究人员和行业代表将 被邀请提交口头或海报演示的摘要，然后由 会议计划委员会。将举行一系列研讨会和讨论会议，以促进 来自基础，翻译，临床和工业研究背景的与会者之间的互动。这 本申请中要求的大多数资金将用于提供经济援助进行注册 和从传统上在科学领域代表性不足的团体的个人旅行。这样 国会将在十年来首次在美国举行，我们预计 社区，尤其是针对美国的研究人员和公司，并预计有400-600名与会者。 对公共卫生的影响将源自光学成像和应用的“影响路线图”和 PDT在医学上是会议精神的基础。
