项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY The Wind River Conference on Prokaryotic Biology (WRC) is held each year over four days in the foothills of the Rockies. There are two features of this meeting that are unique, major strengths. First, the WRC is a small meeting that mingles investigators working on a wide variety of microbial questions. Second, interactions between trainees and senior investigators at the WRC take place on a level playing field, a situation one has to experience to appreciate. A critical goal of the WRC is to foster collaborations among and between junior and senior researchers who may only cross paths at a broad meeting such as the WRC. This enables junior scientists to build networks and identify opportunities for postdoctoral research and/or careers in government, industry or science writing, for instance. Our scientific program changes annually based on recent developments in the field, but each year we aim for strong representation in the areas of pathogenesis, physiology, and environmental microbiology. Many of our meeting participants, increasing so in recent years, direct or are supported by NIH-sponsored research programs studying diverse aspects of microbiology. We draw researchers from across the nation, with the aim of stimulating new ideas for collaborations on unexplored areas of scientific research. The active participation of principal investigators, including the keynote speakers, ensures the presence of an expert audience for the presentations given by the students and postdoctoral fellows. 1

项目概要风河原核生物学会议 (WRC) 每年在山麓举行，为期四天落基山脉。这次会议有两个独特的主要优势。首先，WRC是小型会议，汇集了研究各种微生物问题的研究人员。第二， WRC 的学员和高级调查员之间的互动是在公平的竞争环境中进行的，一个人必须经历过的情况才能体会到。世界无线电通信大会的一个重要目标是促进各国之间的合作以及初级和高级研究人员之间的关系，他们可能只在 WRC 等大型会议上交叉。这使得初级科学家能够建立网络并确定博士后研究和/或例如，政府、工业或科学写作领域的职业。我们的科学计划每年都会改变基于该领域的最新发展，但每年我们的目标是在以下领域具有强大的代表性发病机制、生理学和环境微生物学。我们的会议参与者越来越多，近年来，直接或由 NIH 赞助的研究项目支持，研究不同方面的微生物学。我们吸引了来自全国各地的研究人员，旨在激发新的想法在未探索的科学研究领域进行合作。主要研究者的积极参与，包括主讲人，确保有专家听众出席演讲学生和博士后研究员。 1
