DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 4th Many Hosts of Mycobacteria meeting will be held at the Education Center at Busch Gardens in Tampa, Florida in February 2011. This meeting is co-organized by Michelle Larsen (Albert Einstein College of Medicine) and Ray Waters (National Animal Disease Center, USDA) in consultation with Christine Sizemore (NIAID). Ray Ball (Director of Veterinary Services, Busch Gardens, Florida) is the local host for the 4th Many Hosts of Mycobacteria meeting and a member of the planning committee. The purpose of the meeting series is to bring together basic researchers, clinicians, and veterinary medicine researchers that study mycobacterial diseases/hosts. The previous three Many Hosts of Mycobacteria meetings have been held at the National Animal Disease Center in Ames, Iowa (September 2007), Gettysburg, Pennsylvania (September 2008), and the historic former leprosy sanatorium in Carville, Louisiana (November 2009). These meetings are small (~70-80 attendees) and have open registration. A workshop format is used for the meetings to foster open and interactive discussion. The diverse perspectives are exemplified by inclusion of thirteen models (mouse, guinea pig, cotton rat, rabbit, badger, possum, armadillo, fish, deer, cattle, elephant, monkeys and humans) and both experimental and natural infections (Tuberculosis from M. bovis and M. tuberculosis; Leprosy from M. leprae, Johnes Disease from M. avium paratuberculosis, and general mycobacterial infections from M. ulcerans and non-tuberculous mycobacteria). The focus of the Iowa meeting was on the utility and limitations of these models in understanding myobacterial disease, pathogenesis, and vaccine development. The Gettysburg meeting focused on immunopathology, and the theme of the Carville was comparative mycobacteriology. The theme of the Busch Gardens Many Hosts of Mycobacteria meeting will be biomakers. We target inclusion of young investigators as speakers and moderators for these meetings to foster discussion of new ideas and allow for development of collaboration between research groups that do not typically interact with each other. Project Narrative: The Many Hosts of Mycobacteria meeting is a small (~70-80 attendees) workshop-style meeting with open registration that targets inclusion of young investigators as speakers and moderators. The purpose of the meeting is to bring together basic researchers, clinicians, and veterinary medicine researchers that work on mycobacterial diseases such as Tuberculosis, Leprosy, and Johnes Disease in a wide range of natural and experimental infection hosts (mouse, guinea pig, cotton rat, rabbit, badger, possum, armadillo, fish, deer, cattle, zoo species, monkeys and humans). The topics and format of this meeting are meant to foster lively discussion to facilitate our understanding of mycobacterial disease across many species.

描述（由申请人提供）： 第四届分枝杆菌多主会议将于 2011 年 2 月在佛罗里达州坦帕市布希花园教育中心举行。本次会议由米歇尔·拉森（阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦医学院）和雷·沃特斯（国家动物疾病中心）共同组织。美国农业部）与 Christine Sizemore (NIAID) 协商。 Ray Ball（佛罗里达州布希花园兽医服务主任）是第四届分枝杆菌多宿主会议的当地主持人，也是规划委员会的成员。该系列会议的目的是将研究分枝杆菌疾病/宿主的基础研究人员、临床医生和兽医研究人员聚集在一起。前三届分枝杆菌多宿主会议分别在爱荷华州艾姆斯国家动物疾病中心（2007 年 9 月）、宾夕法尼亚州葛底斯堡（2008 年 9 月）以及路易斯安那州卡维尔历史悠久的前麻风病疗养院（2009 年 11 月）举行。这些会议规模较小（约 70-80 名与会者），并且开放注册。会议采用研讨会形式，以促进开放和互动的讨论。不同的观点包括十三种模型（小鼠、豚鼠、棉鼠、兔子、獾、负鼠、犰狳、鱼、鹿、牛、大象、猴子和人类）以及实验性和自然感染（结核分枝杆菌）。牛和结核分枝杆菌；来自麻风分枝杆菌的麻风病，来自副结核分枝杆菌的约翰氏病，以及来自麻风分枝杆菌的一般分枝杆菌感染。溃疡菌和非结核分枝杆菌）。爱荷华州会议的重点是这些模型在了解分枝杆菌疾病、发病机制和疫苗开发方面的效用和局限性。葛底斯堡会议的重点是免疫病理学，卡维尔会议的主题是比较分枝杆菌学。布希花园分枝杆菌多宿主会议的主题将是生物制造者。我们的目标是让年轻的研究人员作为这些会议的发言人和主持人，以促进新想法的讨论，并允许通常相互不互动的研究小组之间发展合作。 项目叙述： 分枝杆菌多宿主会议是一个小型（约 70-80 名与会者）研讨会式会议，开放注册，目标是让年轻研究人员作为演讲者和主持人。会议的目的是汇集在各种自然和实验感染宿主（小鼠、豚鼠、棉鼠）中研究结核病、麻风病和约翰氏病等分枝杆菌疾病的基础研究人员、临床医生和兽医研究人员、兔子、獾、负鼠、犰狳、鱼、鹿、牛、动物园物种、猴子和人类）。本次会议的主题和形式旨在促进热烈的讨论，以促进我们对许多物种的分枝杆菌疾病的理解。
