项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Congress of the International Society for Biomedical Research on Alcoholism (ISBRA) provides a critical venue for alcohol researchers from around the world to provide updates on scientific findings, exchange ideas, discuss and debate issues in the field, and to interact and form scientific collaborations. As the premier international scientific meeting devoted to alcohol research, this Congress brings together a range of basic and clinical scientists that study the biomedical, psychosocial, and clinical aspects of alcohol use, abuse and addiction. This scientific exchange is invaluable for both established and developing research programs around the world. Alcohol is currently the 3rd highest risk factor for disease burden globally, affecting not only the drinker, but their families and communities as well. Given the immense public health cost of alcohol use and abuse, cooperation and scientific exchange among international researchers is critical for informing public policy as well as addressing important research questions. The ISBRA Congress has been held biennially since 1982, shortly after ISBRA was founded. Meetings have been held around the world, in Asia, Europe, Australia, and North America. This application requests funding for support of the 2014 and 2016 ISBRA Congresses. The 17th Congress will be held on June 21- 25, 2014 as a joint meeting with the Research Society on Alcoholism (RSA) in Seattle, Washington, USA. This will be the sixth time that ISBRA has met in North America and the fourth joint meeting between ISBRA and RSA. The 18th Congress will be held in the fall of 2016 at a European destination to be determined by the ISBRA Board. This application would provide partial travel support for scientists to attend these important Congresses, scientists who might otherwise not be able to attend. Funds would be directed primarily to individuals outside the U.S. for the 2014 meeting and to U.S. scientists for the 2016 meeting. Funding support is prioritized to ensure that junior investigators can attend the meeting, to foster the cadre of youn scientists that will develop into the leaders of the field. Furthermore, funds are allocated to ensure the on the contribution from women and underrepresented populations. Funds are requested to offset travel, registration fees as permitted and partial living expenses. The application also requests partial publication costs for the Congress abstract book, program, and published proceedings. Publication of scientific abstracts and summaries allows the content of the Congresses to be communicated to the larger research community and public.

描述（由申请人提供）：国际酒精中毒生物医学研究学会 (ISBRA) 大会为来自世界各地的酒精研究人员提供了一个重要的场所，以提供最新的科学发现、交流思想、讨论和辩论该领域的问题，并进行互动和形成科学合作。作为致力于酒精研究的首要国际科学会议，本届大会汇集了一系列研究酒精使用、滥用和成瘾的生物医学、心理社会和临床方面的基础和临床科学家。这种科学交流对于世界各地已建立和正在发展的研究项目来说都是无价的。酒精目前是全球疾病负担的第三大风险因素，不仅影响饮酒者，还影响他们的家人以及社区。鉴于饮酒和滥用造成的巨大公共卫生成本，国际研究人员之间的合作和科学交流对于告知公共政策以及解决重要的研究问题至关重要。自 1982 年 ISBRA 成立后不久，ISBRA 大会每两年举行一次。会议已在世界各地举行，包括亚洲、欧洲、澳大利亚和北美。本申请请求资金支持 2014 年和 2016 年 ISBRA 大会。第十七届大会将于2014年6月21日至25日在美国华盛顿州西雅图与酒精中毒研究会（RSA）联合举行。这将是ISBRA第六次在北美举行会议，也是ISBRA和RSA的第四次联席会议。第 18 届大会将于 2016 年秋季在 ISBRA 董事会确定的欧洲地点举行。该应用程序将为参加这些重要大会的科学家提供部分旅行支持，否则这些科学家可能无法参加。资金将主要用于参加 2014 年会议的美国境外个人和参加 2016 年会议的美国科学家。优先资助青年科研人员参加会议，培养青年科学家骨干队伍，成为该领域的领军人物。此外，还分配资金以确保妇女和代表性不足的人群做出贡献。需要资金来抵消差旅费、允许的注册费和部分生活费用。该申请还要求支付国会摘要书、议程和出版会议记录的部分出版费用。科学摘要和摘要的出版使大会的内容能够传达给更大的研究界和公众。
