PROJECT SUMMARY Reproductive health underpins overall health and thus research in reproductive science and medicine is essential. This requires a steady pipeline of trained scientists and clinicians, which can be challenging given the relatively small size of the field. Professional opportunities outside the laboratory and classroom are essential to providing our trainees with important scientific, leadership, and career development experiences. Since 2008, Northwestern and other institutions in Illinois, including the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign (UIUC), have hosted a biannual meeting on a rotating basis entitled the Illinois Symposium for Reproductive Science (ISRS). Given the strengths of our collective focus on reproductive science, our extensive trainee community, as well as our established institutional infrastructures, our goal is to now expand this event to include five states and 16 institutions across the Upper Midwest region. This application seeks funds to support the Upper Midwest Summit for Reproductive Science. This conference will be hosted by Northwestern and the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign in alternate years. A hallmark of this event is that it is largely organized and coordinated by trainees, providing valuable leadership and professional development experience. The trainee planning committee will be responsible for identifying themes and speakers, hosting and chaperoning speakers, acting as session moderators, and working the registration table. The event will be held over a period of a day and a half and will consist of a variety of presentation formats. Dedicated poster sessions throughout the meeting allow participants to present their research, receive constructive feedback, and engage in constructive dialogue other attendees. Panel sessions and a career roundtable lunch will enhance the program by moving beyond the bench to discuss topics such as innovation, advocacy, and communication. There will also be an invited keynote speaker, who will be a luminary in the field, as well as an alumni speaker who will be someone who participated in the conference as a trainee and now has a successful career in our discipline. Sessions will be organized by topics and invited speakers and trainees will deliver oral presentations at this time. Throughout the conference there will be many opportunities for trainees to network with each other and the conference will be an annual opportunity for trainees to facilitate interaction among potential future lab mates, PIs, and collaborators. To further enhance the trainee experience, both institutions have committed to provide funds for trainee research awards for outstanding oral platforms and poster presentations. Priority will be given to individuals who are underrepresented in science to maximize broad participation of diverse speakers and trainees. Together we will leverage our collective institutional strengths to maintain the Upper Midwest Region as a preeminent nationwide leader in this critical research field.

项目摘要 生殖健康是整体健康的基础，从而研究了生殖科学与医学 是必不可少的。这需要稳定的训练有素的科学家和临床医生的管道，这可能具有挑战性 考虑到该场的尺寸相对较小。实验室以外的专业机会 课堂对于为学员提供重要的科学，领导和职业至关重要 发展经验。自2008年以来，伊利诺伊州的西北地区和其他机构，包括 伊利诺伊大学乌尔巴纳大学香槟（UIUC）旋转举办了一次双年度会议 题为伊利诺伊州生殖科学研讨会（ISRS）。鉴于我们集体的优势 专注于生殖科学，我们广泛的实习生社区以及我们已建立的机构 基础架构，我们的目标是现在将此活动扩展到包括五个州和16个机构 中西部地区。该申请寻求资金来支持上西部峰会 生殖科学。这次会议将由西北和伊利诺伊大学主持 乌尔巴纳（Urbana）在替代年份。此事件的标志是它在很大程度上组织了 由学员协调，提供宝贵的领导力和专业发展经验。这 学员计划委员会将负责确定主题和发言人，托管和 伴侣演讲者，充当会话主持人并工作注册表。活动将 在一天半的时间内举行，将包括各种演示格式。投入的 整个会议期间的海报会议允许参与者介绍他们的研究，接受 建设性的反馈，并进行建设性对话其他与会者。面板会议和 职业圆桌会议午餐将通过超越替补席讨论这样的主题来增强该计划 作为创新，倡导和沟通。还将有一个受邀主题演讲者 成为该领域的名人，以及校友演讲者，将成为参加 会议作为学员，现在在我们的学科中取得了成功的职业。会议将组织 通过主题和受邀演讲者和受训者，此时将进行口头演讲。整个 会议会有很多机会让学员彼此建立联系和会议 年度学员将是促进潜在的未来实验室伴侣PIS的互动的机会 和合作者。为了进一步增强学员的体验，两个机构都承诺 为杰出的口头平台和海报演示的学员研究奖提供资金。 优先级将对在科学领域的人数不足，以最大程度地提高广泛参与 多样的演讲者和受训者。我们将共同利用我们的集体机构优势 在这个关键研究领域，将上西部地区作为全国杰出领导者。
