项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal requests funding to facilitate the attendance and active participation of young and junior scientists from developing countries at The 6th World Workshop on Oral Health and Disease in AIDS to be held in Beijing, China April 21-25, 2009. This is the second time the Workshop will be held in Asia. It is particularly appropriate at this time with Southeast Asia being in a growing center of the AIDS pandemic. We are applying for funds to support a number of individual travel grants to partially cover registration, which includes accommodation and meals ($1000), and partial travel expenses for coach round-trip plus local transportation (up to $1000) for each of the young or junior scientists selected. Because of the extreme limitation on funds for such scientists from developing countries to attend meetings of this caliber, the request is intended in large part to support foreign participants. The International Workshops have proved to be invaluable in that they enable clinicians and scientists working in the field to exchange ideas and information at personal level. SE Asian communities will benefit enormously from the latest information on diagnosis and treatment brought fresh to our researchers, university lecturers, clinicians and students. The workshop will make it possible to consider specific Asian problems, to discuss the steps being taken to address these problems and to offer alternative approaches. The findings will be published as a special supplement to a recognized journal and will include a set of recommendations for oral HIV research and guidelines for care. Of particular importance is that the Workshop has been designed and will be conducted so as to ensure that we address the key challenges that lie ahead of this field. Workshop leadership and participants will define the obstacles that impede progress in specific areas of oral HIV/AIDS and cognate science and will prepare a set of specific recommendations and directions for future research. This Agenda for the Future of the Field has been a crucial and consistent product of the previous five World Workshops. Each has informed current and aspiring investigators as well as funding agencies such as the NIDCR. Public Health Relevance: It is anticipated that those receiving support from this proposed conference grant will take the knowledge acquired at the Workshop back and apply it in their own programs, thus contributing to HIV/AIDS research, care and education in their own countries; particularly in those where such improvements are most sorely needed. The AIDS epidemic has developed into a time bomb that will have dramatic effects on China and South East Asian populations as well as the economies of these countries.

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案要求提供资金，以促进来自发展中国家的年轻和初级科学家出席和积极参与将于 4 月 21 日至 25 日在中国北京举行的第六届口腔健康与艾滋病疾病世界研讨会。 2009年。这是该研讨会第二次在亚洲举行。在东南亚日益成为艾滋病流行中心的情况下，这一举措尤为合适。我们正在申请资金来支持一些个人旅行补助金，以部分支付注册费用，其中包括住宿和膳食（1000 美元），以及每位青少年或青少年的部分往返长途旅行加上当地交通费用（最高 1000 美元）。选定的青年科学家。由于来自发展中国家的科学家参加这种级别的会议的资金极其有限，这一请求在很大程度上是为了支持外国参与者。事实证明，国际研讨会的价值是无价的，因为它们使该领域的临床医生和科学家能够在个人层面上交流想法和信息。东南亚社区将从我们的研究人员、大学讲师、临床医生和学生带来的最新诊断和治疗信息中受益匪浅。该研讨会将使人们有可能考虑具体的亚洲问题，讨论解决这些问题所采取的步骤并提供替代方法。研究结果将作为公认期刊的特别增刊发表，并将包括一系列口腔艾滋病毒研究建议和护理指南。特别重要的是，研讨会的设计和举办是为了确保我们解决该领域面临的关键挑战。研讨会领导层和参与者将确定阻碍口腔艾滋病毒/艾滋病和相关科学特定领域取得进展的障碍，并为未来的研究准备一套具体建议和方向。该领域的未来议程是前五届世界研讨会的重要且一致的成果。每个人都已通知当前和有抱负的调查人员以及 NIDCR 等资助机构。公共卫生相关性：预计那些接受拟议会议赠款支持的人将收回在讲习班上获得的知识并将其应用到自己的计划中，从而为自己国家的艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究、护理和教育做出贡献；特别是在那些最迫切需要此类改进的地方。艾滋病疫情已发展成为一颗定时炸弹，将对中国和东南亚人民以及这些国家的经济产生巨大影响。
