PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The funds requested in this application are for partial support of the 6th Molecular Mechanisms of Axon Degeneration Meeting (Axon 6) to be held at The Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine, in September 2016. The Axon 6 meeting gathers senior scientists, junior faculty, post-doctoral fellows and graduate students for 3 full days of scientific idea exchange. Across ten plenary sessions and two poster sessions ~150 attendees will present work on the basic biological mechanisms underlying axon degeneration and associated disease pathophysiology. The meeting provides an excellent training opportunity for students, fellows and junior investigators to gain expertise, initiate collaborations and share leading-edge research results. The Axon Degeneration meeting is unique because it focuses specifically on the cellular and molecular mechanisms of axon degeneration, potential targets for prevention of degeneration and axon regeneration. Up to ten scholarships and associated travel awards will be given to eligible early-career scientists (junior faculty, post- doctoral fellows and graduate students) who demonstrate need, preference will be given to early career scientists from groups under-represented in the biomedical sciences.

项目概要/摘要 本申请要求的资金用于部分支持 Axon 第六分子机制 退化会议（Axon 6）将于 9 月在缅因州巴港的杰克逊实验室举行 2016年，Axon 6会议聚集了资深科学家、初级教师、博士后和研究生 为期 3 天的科学思想交流。十场全体会议和两次海报会议 ~150 与会者将介绍轴突变性及其相关的基本生物机制的工作 疾病病理生理学。此次会议为学生、研究员和同行提供了绝佳的培训机会 初级研究人员获得专业知识、发起合作并分享前沿研究成果。轴突 变性会议是独一无二的，因为它专门关注变性的细胞和分子机制 轴突变性，预防变性和轴突再生的潜在目标。最多十个 奖学金和相关的旅行奖励将颁发给符合资格的早期职业科学家（初级教师、后期科学家） 博士研究生和研究生）如果有需要，将优先考虑早期职业 来自生物医学领域代表性不足的群体的科学家。
