项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Frontiers in Reproduction (FIR) is a 6-week long course held every summer at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole MA. FIR is a dynamic and evolving entity offering a series of daily lectures on cutting edge topics, as well as extensive discussions, laboratory research, workshops and informal seminars. Since its inception in 1998 FIR has aimed to train beginning independent scientists, advanced postdoctoral fellows in the basic or clinical sciences, as well as graduate students who are committed to clinical and basic research careers in the reproductive sciences. FIR is directed by a Board of Scientific Counselors composed of scientists who direct basic or translational research programs in different areas of the reproductive sciences. The FIR course itself is divided into three sections and is organized and implemented by one lead director and three section directors. Section 1 covers signal transduction and gene expression in the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. Section 2 covers gametogenesis, fertilization and stem cells. Section 3 covers implantation, development of the reproductive tract and transgenesis. The section directors and the participating faculty and lecturers are selected because of their leadership positions in the Reproductive Sciences. The overall purpose of FIR is to train the next generation of reproductive scientists and to promote collaborations and mentorship among junior and senior reproductive scientists. FIR has now been continuously held for 16 years and all indications are that we have been successful in attaining these goals.

描述（由申请人提供）：繁殖前沿 (FIR) 是一个为期 6 周的课程，每年夏天在马萨诸塞州伍兹霍尔的海洋生物实验室举办。 FIR 是一个充满活力且不断发展的实体，每天提供一系列前沿主题讲座以及广泛的讨论、实验室研究、研讨会和非正式研讨会。自 1998 年成立以来，FIR 旨在培养基础科学或临床科学领域的初级独立科学家、高级博士后研究员以及致力于生殖科学临床和基础研究职业的研究生。 FIR 由科学顾问委员会领导，该委员会由指导生殖科学不同领域的基础或转化研究项目的科学家组成。 FIR课程本身分为三个部分，由一名首席主任和三名部分主任组织和实施。第 1 节介绍下丘脑-垂体-性腺轴中的信号转导和基因表达。第 2 部分介绍配子发生、受精和干细胞。第 3 节介绍了生殖道的植入、发育和转基因。部门主任以及参与的教师和讲师是根据他们在生殖科学领域的领导地位而选出的。 FIR 的总体目的是培训下一代生殖科学家，并促进初级和高级生殖科学家之间的合作和指导。 FIR现已连续举办16年，一切迹象表明我们已经成功实现了这些目标。
