DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) This proposal requests partial support for the International Neurotoxicology Association (INA)-12 Meeting, June 7-12, 2009, at Ma'ale Hachamisha Kibbutz Hotel and Convention Center in the outskirts of Jerusalem, Israel. The broad and long-term goal of the Conference is to increase our understanding of fundamental and applied aspects of neurotoxicology, with a strong emphasis on Gene-Environment Interactions in Neurotoxicology. The specific aims of this meeting are: 1) to invite 35-40 outstanding speakers from around the globe that represent the critical and diverse areas of neurotoxicological and neuroscience research, and 2) have these scientists present and discuss their findings with 200 participants during a five day Conference in a relatively isolated setting. The program will commence Sunday evening with a keynote lecture by Dr. Hermona Soreq, Dean, Faculty of Science, Hebrew University, and Jerusalem, Israel. The title of Dr. Soreq's planery lecture is "Molecular Biology Approach to Neurotoxicology". The eight sessions will broadly address current issues in the field. The two sessions on Monday will focus on 1) Gene-Environment Interactions and Neurodegeneration in Non-Mammals, and 2) Gene-Chemical Interactions in the Developing Nervous System: Proliferation, Neurogenesis and Differentiation. The two sessions on Tuesday will present: 1) Advances in Novel Signaling in the Expression of Neurotoxicity, and 2) Strategies for In Vitro and Developmental Neurotoxicity Testing. The two sessions on Thursday will address: 1) Environmental Contaminants and the Neuroendocrine System, and 2) Peaceful Use of Disastrous Neurotoxicants. The final session on Friday morning will focus on Gene-Environment Interactions in Parkinson's Disease. In addition, two Symposiums organized and presented by students participating in graduate programs in neurotoxicology will round out the oral presentations (Tuesday PM, June 9 and Thursday AM, June 11). Two evening poster sessions (Monday, June 8 and Thursday, June 11) will permit all participants to contribute to these and other topics in neurotoxicology. The significance of this application is that the INA Conference series has become a major venue that propels research in the international community of researchers and educators involved in all aspects of neurotoxicology, foster career development of scientists entering the field, and promote collaborative research activity with an international scope. The health relatedness of this application is that the discussions stimulated by the presentations of leading authorities in the field of neurotoxicology will define the major questions that require experimental resolution in areas that affect human neurological heath. Thus, the Conference is likely to shape future research in areas of developmental exposures to degeneration associated with the aging nervous system, as well as the interaction between the environment and genetics in precipitating neurodegeneration, the latter being chosen as the main theme of this meeting (INA-12).

描述（由申请人提供） 该提案要求在2009年6月7日至12日在以色列耶路撒冷郊区的Ma'ale Hachamisha Kibbutz酒店和会议中心在Ma'ale Hachamisha Kibbutz酒店和会议中心部分支持国际神经毒理学协会（INA）-12会议。会议的广泛和长期目标是提高我们对神经毒理学的基本和应用方面的理解，并非常重视神经毒理学中的基因环境相互作用。这次会议的具体目的是：1）邀请来自全球的35-40名杰出演讲者，代表神经毒理学和神经科学研究的关键和多样化领域，以及2）让这些科学家在一个相对孤立的环境中在为期五天的会议上与200名参与者进行演出并与200名参与者讨论他们的发现。 该计划将于周日晚上开始，由希伯来大学科学院院长Hermona Soreq博士和以色列耶路撒冷进行主题演讲。 Soreq博士的Planery讲座的标题是“神经毒理学分子生物学方法”。八个会议将广泛解决该领域的当前问题。周一的两个课程将重点放在1）非哺乳动物中的基因环境相互作用和神经变性，以及2）发展中神经系统中的基因化学相互作用：增殖，神经发生和分化。周二的两个会议将出现：1）神经毒性表达的新信号传导进展，以及2）体外和发育神经毒性测试的策略。 周四的两个课程将解决：1）环境污染物和神经内分泌系统，以及2）和平使用灾难性的神经毒性。 周五早上的最后一次会议将重点介绍帕金森氏病的基因环境相互作用。 此外，参加神经毒理学研究生课程的学生组织和介绍了两次研讨会，将结束口服演讲（星期二PM，6月9日和6月11日，星期四，星期四）。 两个晚上的海报会议（6月8日，星期一和6月11日，星期四）将允许所有参与者为神经毒理学的这些和其他主题做出贡献。该应用程序的重要性在于，INA会议系列已成为一个主要的场所，它推动了参与神经毒理学各个方面的国际研究人员和教育工作者的研究，促进科学家的职业发展进入该领域，并促进国际范围的协作研究活动。该应用的健康相关性是，由神经毒理学领域领先的当局的介绍所刺激的讨论将定义需要在影响人类神经系统的领域进行实验分辨率的主要问题。因此，该会议可能会塑造与衰老神经系统相关的变性领域的发展领域的未来研究，以及在促进神经变性的环境与遗传学之间的相互作用，后者被选为本次会议的主题（INA-12）。
