项目摘要

Abstract The main goal of the Physical Virology Gordon Research Conference (GRC) is to facilitate interdisciplinary interactions and collaborations that will advance the fields of virology and nano-medicine by overcoming traditional boundaries between relevant disciplines. Bursts of progress in biomedical research are often the result of bringing conceptual and experimental tools from various disciplines to bear on a problem of common interest, in this case the structure, physical properties, and utility of viruses and virus-like self-assembled systems. While this topic is of interest to physicists, chemists, and biologists alike, scientists from these diverse fields rarely attend the same meeting. Very often, scientists in one discipline are simply unaware of the barriers limiting progress in another. From its inception in 2009, the Physical Virology GRC has been a focal meeting for a growing community of researchers that span these fields, but have common interests in the biology, chemistry, and nanotechnology of viruses and virus-inspired structures. Our goals are as follows. Assemble an outstanding program of leading investigators, students, and postdocs that is internationally and socially diverse in the field of physical virology, under the format of GRC gatherings. NIH support is essential to raising sufficient funds to allow scientists, both junior and senior, from distant locations to attend the conference. The extended free time at the GRC provides a broad opportunity to explore collaboration. For example, mixing researchers with interests in virology and nanotechnology has already opened opportunities to generate new therapeutic approaches and new materials. The GRC format encourages a dialectic approach to scientific talks. The prerequisite for such a dialog is a sustained effort to communicate research across scientific boundaries. A major theme is to introduce students and postdocs to physical virology as an interdisciplinary field, and to the key principal investigators in the field. The Gordon Research seminar preceding the GRC will allow students to freely exchange ideas in a non-intimidating environment. A specific goal of funding for this meeting is to support attendance of students, postdocs, women and under-represented minorities. The GRC schedule has been specifically adapted to include poster talks in every session to encourage active participation of these young scientists.

抽象的物理病毒学戈登研究会议（GRC）的主要目标是促进跨学科研究互动与合作将通过克服以下问题来推进病毒学和纳米医学领域的发展相关学科之间的传统界限。生物医学研究的爆发性进展往往是将不同学科的概念和实验工具用于解决共同问题的结果兴趣，在这种情况下，病毒和类病毒自组装体的结构、物理特性和效用系统。虽然物理学家、化学家和生物学家都对这个话题感兴趣，但来自这些不同领域的科学家领域很少参加同一个会议。很多时候，某一学科的科学家根本没有意识到这些障碍限制另一个方面的进展。自 2009 年成立以来，物理病毒学 GRC 一直是焦点会议对于越来越多跨越这些领域但对生物学有共同兴趣的研究人员来说，病毒和病毒启发结构的化学和纳米技术。我们的目标如下。组建由领先研究人员、学生和博士后组成的杰出项目以 GRC 聚会的形式，在物理病毒学领域具有国际性和社会多样性。 NIH 的支持对于筹集足够的资金至关重要，以便让初级和高级科学家能够从遥远的地方参加会议的地点。 GRC 延长的空闲时间提供了广阔的探索机会合作。例如，将对病毒学和纳米技术感兴趣的研究人员结合在一起已经为产生新的治疗方法和新材料提供了机会。 GRC 格式鼓励以辩证的方式进行科学讨论。这种对话的前提是持续努力跨越科学界限交流研究。一个主要主题是向学生和博士后介绍物理病毒学作为一个跨学科领域，以及该领域的主要首席研究员。 GRC 之前的戈登研究研讨会将使学生能够在非恐吓的环境中自由交流想法。本次会议资助的具体目标是支持学生、博士后、妇女和代表性不足的少数群体的出席。 GRC时间表有经过专门调整，在每场会议中都包括海报演讲，以鼓励这些人积极参与年轻的科学家。 PHS 398/2590（修订版 06/09）页面延续格式页面
