This is an application for partial support of the 10th biennial FASEB Science Research Conference on Ion Channel Regulation that will be held from June 27 to July 2 2021 at the Oak Island Resort & Conference Center in Nova Scotia, Canada. The objectives of this conference are to: stimulate discourse, seed new ideas, and facilitate collaboration in ways that will accelerate new discoveries about ion channels at the basic and translational levels, and to provide a forum for trainees to participate in scientific sessions and in career development activities. Regulation of ion channel function is essential for myriad physiological functions including neuronal signaling, pain transduction, and the beating of the heart. Accounting for ~2% of human genes, ion channels are subject to numerous disease-causing mutations, leading to over 55 inherited disorders termed “channelopathies”, including epilepsy, migraine, several neurological disorders, blindness, deafness, diabetes, hypertension, several different cardiac arrhythmias, asthma, irritable bowel syndrome, skin diseases and cancer. Importantly, considering the central involvement of ion channels, these diseases share a great deal in common in terms of disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic development with ion channels being the target of numerous drugs. Thus, the topic of our conference is both timely and highly relevant for a broad population of scientists, clinicians, and the general public and will benefit greatly from the ion channel community coming together. The meeting will be co-chaired by Isabelle Deschênes from The Ohio State University and Gea-Ny Tseng from Virginia Commonwealth University, both recognized leaders in ion channel biology with expertise between the two of them covering all aspects of ion channel research going from structure-function, transcriptional regulation, trafficking, regulation and channelopathies. The Program consists of nine scientific sessions, two keynote addresses, and two breakout sessions focused on interactions with experts from academia, NIH and industry and a career development session. Most scientific sessions are organized around general themes rather than ion channel subtype and organs, to foster crosstalk between fields typically kept separate in traditional conferences. There will be 32 session speakers giving full talks, including at least 18 women (56% of speakers) and 9 session chairs (4 of whom are women, 44%). Most of the invited speakers (90%) have not presented at this conference during the prior two meetings. Of the 32 session speakers, we currently have 9 early career stage investigators (28%) and 9 members of under-represented minorities in science (28%). We will also have 8 additional short talks which will be selected from the abstracts submitted and dedicated to junior investigators which will therefore encompass 36% of our speakers, giving them the opportunity to get broad exposure. We have placed emphasis on comprehensive scientific themes shared across ion channel types seeking to catalyze on the knowledge from each to benefit the broader field and will allow us to build multidisciplinary networks across the different ion channels.

这是对第十届双年度 FASEB 离子科学研究会议部分支持的申请 航道监管将于 2021 年 6 月 27 日至 7 月 2 日在橡树岛度假村及会议中心举行 在加拿大新斯科舍省举行的本次会议的目标是：激发讨论、传播新思想并 促进合作，加速离子通道的基础和新发现 翻译水平，并为学员提供参加科学会议和职业生涯的论坛 离子通道功能的调节对于多种生理功能至关重要，包括 神经信号传导、疼痛传导和心脏跳动约占人类基因的 2%。 通道会发生多种致病突变，导致超过 55 种遗传性疾病，称为 “通道病”，包括癫痫、偏头痛、几种神经系统疾病、失明、耳聋、糖尿病、 高血压、几种不同的心律失常、哮喘、肠易激综合症、皮肤病和癌症。 重要的是，考虑到离子通道的中心参与，这些疾病有很多共同点 就疾病机制和以离子通道为目标的潜在治疗发展而言 因此，我们会议的主题对于广大人民来说既及时又高度相关。 科学家、大众和公众将从离子通道社区的到来中受益匪浅 会议将由俄亥俄州立大学的 Isabelle Deschê​​nes 和 Gea-Ny 共同主持。 来自弗吉尼亚联邦大学的 Tseng，两人都是离子通道生物学领域公认的具有专业知识的领导者 两者之间涵盖了离子通道研究从结构到功能的各个方面， 该计划包括九项科学内容。 会议、两场主题演讲和两场分组会议，重点关注与来自各领域专家的互动 学术界、NIH 和工业界以及职业发展会议大多数科学会议都是围绕这一主题组织的。 一般主题而不是离子通道亚型和器官，以促进通常保留的场之间的串扰 传统会议将有 32 位会议发言人进行完整演讲，其中至少 18 位。 女性（占演讲者的 56%）和 9 名会议主席（其中 4 名女性，占 44%）。 在 32 名会议发言人中，我们 (90%) 没有在前两次会议上发言。 目前有 9 名早期职业阶段调查员 (28%) 和 9 名代表性不足的少数族裔成员 科学（28%）。我们还将有 8 个额外的简短演讲，这些演讲将从提交的摘要中选出。 专门针对初级研究人员，因此将涵盖我们演讲者的 36%，为他们提供 我们重点关注跨领域共享的综合科学主题。 离子通道类型寻求催化各自的知识以造福于更广泛的领域，并使我们能够 跨不同离子通道建立多学科网络。
