项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): For the past 15 years, the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health & Human Development has organized ten Structural Birth Defects Meetings with the goal of bringing together investigators funded through the NICHD Birth Defects Initiative. The overriding goal of these meetings has been to foster a collaborative environment for the exchange of research findings to enhance the translation of basic knowledge and insights from functional genomic studies into the development of new, innovative, and efficacious strategies for the molecular diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of human structural birth defects. Funded investigators spanned multiple disciplines and included developmental biologists, cell biologists, biophysicists, clinicians, genomicists, geneticists, epidemiologists, and biostatisticians and bioinformaticians. At any given meeting, 50-60 investigators attended as well as relevant NIH staff. At the 10th Structural Birth Defects Meeting in December 2014, a decision was made to transition the planning of future meetings from NICHD staff to the structural birth defects research community opening the way for attendance by others from the research community and, in particular, trainees. This application seeks funding for the 11th Structural Birth Defects Meeting to be held April 3-5, 2017 in Bethesda, MD at the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) Conference Center under the sponsorship of the Society for Developmental Biology (SDB). The intent is to more than double the size of the meeting while maintaining the interactive, multidisciplinary nature of the presentations and discussions. There are no concurrently running sessions and all participants are expected to attend all the presentations. The format of the meeting consists predominately of short presentations of hypothesis driven findings grouped into several topic areas followed by discussion. As has become the tradition, a keynote speaker is invited from an area not necessarily mainstream to birth defects research but of high relevance to the field thus stimulating discussion and exchange of new ideas. A second speaker is invited to introduce a topic which will then be discussed more formally by a roundtable panel as well as all participants. For the first time poster sessions will be held to facilitate participation of as man trainees as possible. These will be held during extended lunch breaks on two days allowing for adequate participation by all. Informal evening activities will engage senior scientists and trainees to encourage mentoring and networking.

描述（由申请人提供）：在过去的 15 年里，尤尼斯·肯尼迪·施赖弗国家儿童健康与人类发展研究所组织了十次结构性出生缺陷会议，其目标是将通过 NICHD 出生缺陷倡议资助的研究人员聚集在一起。这些会议的目的是营造一个交流研究成果的协作环境，以加强将功能基因组研究的基础知识和见解转化为新的、创新的和有效的策略的开发资助的研究人员涵盖多个学科，包括发育生物学家、细胞生物学家、生物物理学家、指挥官、基因组学家、遗传学家、流行病学家、生物统计学家和生物信息学家。 2014 年 12 月举行的第 10 届结构性出生缺陷会议上，有 60 名研究人员以及 NIH 相关工作人员参加，会议决定调整未来会议的计划。 NICHD 工作人员向结构性出生缺陷研究界开放了道路，以便研究界的其他人，特别是受训人员参加本申请，为将于 2017 年 4 月 3 日至 5 日在贝塞斯达举行的第 11 届结构性出生缺陷会议寻求资金。在发育生物学学会 (SDB) 的赞助下，美国实验生物学会联合会 (FASEB) 会议中心的医学博士目的是将会议规模扩大一倍以上。保持演示和讨论的互动性、跨学科性质。会议的形式主要是对假设结果进行简短的演示，然后将其分为几个主题领域。按照惯例，邀请一位主讲人来自不一定是出生缺陷研究主流但与该领域高度相关的领域，从而激发讨论和交流新想法。然后由一个更正式的讨论圆桌小组以及所有参与者将首次举行海报会议，以尽可能促进男性学员的参与。这些会议将在两天的延长午餐时间举行，以便所有人充分参与非正式的晚间活动。鼓励资深科学家和受训人员进行指导和建立联系。
