DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): On behalf of the American Summer Neuropeptide Conference request is being made from the National Institute on Aging to partially sponsor the symposium titled "Alzheimer's Disease" to be held as part of NEUROPEPTIDES 2003, the 3rd Joint Meeting of the American Summer Neuropeptide Conference and the European Neuropeptide Club. This joint international meeting will be held in Montauk, New York, USA from June 8-12, 2003. The goal of the symposium is to bring together leaders in the field of peptides and aging disorders to discuss their latest findings on the roles of neuropeptides in Alzheimer's disease. This symposium will provide important, state-of-the-art research on the pathophysiology and biochemical basis of AIzheimer's disease in the context of neuropeptides. Topics will range from basic molecular mechanisms to potential neuroprotective and therapeutic applications of neuropeptides in neurodegenerative disorders, with an emphasis on Alzheimer's disease. Specifically, we are requesting funds to help defray meeting expenses of several invited speakers in this symposium and of several graduate student and postdoctoral trainees who will participate in the conference and interact with established leaders in fields related to the mission of the National Institute on Aging. The total amount requested is $11,650. The American Summer Neuropeptide Conference, now in its thirteenth year, and its counterpart the European Neuropeptide Club. The conferences highlight major new advances in neuropeptide research and attract a good mixture of senior and junior participants from academia and industry from throughout the world. Active participation by graduate and postdoctoral trainees, as well as by women and minority scientists, is strongly encouraged. The format of the present joint conference involves morning, afternoon and evening symposia, poster sessions Club, also in its thirteenth year, have become the premier international meetings for neuropeptide research, an award ceremony and conference banquet, and special lectures by distinguished international scientists. This format, coupled with the informal setting, provides an ideal forum for the dissemination and exchange of current information and the development of new collaborations among the participants.

说明（由申请人提供）：代表美国夏季神经肽会议请求国家老龄化研究所部分赞助题为“阿尔茨海默病”的研讨会，该研讨会将作为 2003 年神经肽大会第三届联席会议的一部分举行美国夏季神经肽会议和欧洲神经肽俱乐部。这次联合国际会议将于2003年6月8日至12日在美国纽约蒙托克举行。研讨会的目标是汇集肽和衰老疾病领域的领导者，讨论他们关于神经肽作用的最新发现在阿尔茨海默病中。本次研讨会将为神经肽背景下的阿尔茨海默氏病的病理生理学和生化基础提供重要的、最先进的研究。主题范围从基本分子机制到神经肽在神经退行性疾病中的潜在神经保护和治疗应用，重点是阿尔茨海默病。具体来说，我们请求资金来帮助支付本次研讨会的几位受邀演讲者以及几位研究生和博士后学员的会议费用，他们将参加会议并与国家老龄化研究所使命相关领域的知名领导人进行互动。请求的总金额为 11,650 美元。 美国夏季神经肽会议及其对应的欧洲神经肽俱乐部现已进入第十三个年头。这些会议重点介绍了神经肽研究的重大新进展，并吸引了来自世界各地学术界和工业界的高级和初级参与者。强烈鼓励研究生和博士后学员以及女性和少数族裔科学家积极参与。本届联席会议的形式包括上午、下午和晚上的专题讨论会、墙报会议、俱乐部，这也是神经肽研究领域首屈一指的国际会议、颁奖典礼和会议宴会以及国际杰出科学家的专题讲座，这也是神经肽研究的顶级国际会议。这种形式与非正式的环境相结合，为传播和交流当前信息以及在参与者之间发展新的合作提供了一个理想的论坛。
