项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application seeks funding for travel costs to allow the attendance of 12 trainees or new investigators from the USA at the 2016 Aspen/Snowmass Perinatal Biology Conference. The longstanding tradition of perinatal research in the US underpins our knowledge of the physiologic basis of fetal development. Cellular and molecular techniques incorporated into investigation in the last 20 years have allowed in depth understanding of the developmental basis of fetal physiology and the pathophysiology of preeclampsia, IUGR, diabetes and premature delivery, situations associated with perinatal morbidity and mortality. There has been a burgeoning recognition that life in utero is associated with the development of disease in adult life, i.e. the developmental origins of health and adult disease or fetal programming. This has brought renewed interest in perinatal physiology. The perinatal research community is multidisciplinary; bringing together clinicians and basic scientists interested in maternal, fetal, and placental physiology and a substantial cadre of agricultural animal scientists who perform comparative studies of great relevance to human physiology and development. It also has a strong tradition of training young basic and clinician scientists. A vital part of their training experience is the opportunity to present work n venues where they can interact with senior scientists and receive the benefit of mentorship from role models. This meeting will feature presentations from maternal, fetal, placental and agricultural animal researchers around an integrated theme of "Interconnecting animal and human systems to understand life-long disease." The meeting will be 3 and 1/2 days with multiple oral plenary sessions including new investigators. Plenary sessions will be accompanied by several interactive workshop sessions addressing key questions and challenges facing young investigators in perinatal biology. Two poster discussion sessions are scheduled and posters will be displayed for the entire meeting to allow time for in-depth discussion of work. Prizes will be awarded for the best poster presentations by trainees or new investigators. Trainees and new investigators will be selected based on review of submitted first author abstracts by the Scientific Advisory Committee for award of travel funds. There has always been a high proportion (over 50% at our last meeting) of women attendees at previous meetings and women speakers and session chairs at this meeting are well represented. Our minority representation is around 15%, and we will continue efforts to improve this number, especially with the designation of a minimum of 33% of the requested budget used for travel by underrepresented minority young investigators. Our selected venue is compliant with the American's with Disabilities Act and also provides childcare and numerous family activities to facilitate attendance by all individuals.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请寻求资助旅行费用，以便来自美国的 12 名学员或新研究人员能够参加 2016 年阿斯彭/斯诺马斯围产期生物学会议美国围产期研究的悠久传统支撑了我们的知识。胎儿发育的生理基础过去 20 年，细胞和分子技术的研究使人们能够深入了解胎儿生理学和病理生理学的发育基础。先兆子痫、IUGR、糖尿病和早产、与围产期发病率和死亡率相关的情况人们日益认识到，子宫内的生活与成年后疾病的发展有关，即健康和成人疾病或胎儿编程的发育起源。这重新引起了人们对围产期生理学的兴趣，围产期研究界汇集了对母体、胎儿和胎盘生理学感兴趣的群体和基础科学家以及大量的农业动物科学家。他们进行与人类生理学和发展密切相关的比较研究，并且具有培训年轻基础科学家和临床科学家的悠久传统，他们的培训经验的一个重要部分是提供与资深科学家互动和接受的工作场所的机会。本次会议将围绕“将动物和人类系统联系起来以了解终生疾病”这一综合主题，由孕产妇、胎儿、胎盘和农业动物研究人员进行演讲。 2天多次口服包括新研究者在内的全体会议将伴随着几场互动研讨会，讨论围产期生物学领域年轻研究者面临的关键问题和挑战，并将在整个会议上展示海报，以便有时间进行深入探讨。受训者或新研究者将根据提交的第一作者摘要的审查来选出最佳海报展示者，并给予差旅费。高比例在之前的会议上，女性与会者占 50%，而在本次会议上，女性发言人和会议主席的比例也很高。我们的少数族裔代表比例约为 15%，我们将继续努力提高这一数字，特别是指定一名女性代表。所申请预算的至少 33% 用于代表性不足的少数族裔年轻调查员的旅行。我们选择的场地符合《美国残疾人法案》，并且还提供儿童保育和众多家庭活动，以方便所有人参加。
