DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We request partial support for the 5th National Meeting of the American Society for Matrix Biology (ASMB), to be held at the Francis Marion Hotel, Charleston, SC on October 24-27, 2010. The 5th ASMB meeting builds on the success of the previous meeting, which drew over 400 participants from diverse fields, in academia and industry, spent 4 days of intense discussion and exchange of ideas on the broad topic of matrix biology. We intend to expand on that success. To this end we have assembled a plenary program consisting of distinguished scientists from diverse areas that impinge directly or indirectly on extracellular matrix (ECM) biology. The meeting will open with a Keynote Address by Dr. Elaine Fuchs, a member of the National Academy of Sciences, who will talk on stem cells, ECM, and cancer in skin. The following 3 days will consist of four Plenary Sessions and six blocks of three Concurrent Sessions, focused on topics such as ECM-Cell Interactions, ECM Disease Mechanisms, Development and Morphogenesis, Engineered ECMs, ECM Proteins and the Musculoskeletal System, Genetic Diseases, and much more. Sessions will include speakers from diverse fields to promote cross-fertilization of ideas. The ASMB is a unique convocation of the varied, specialized disciplines that have developed out of matrix biology. Unlike large society meetings, the ASMB meeting has a dominant theme, and unlike symposia it strives to encompass all permutations on this theme, including emerging issues, not-ready-for-prime-time topics, and exciting new areas of research. In particular, this meeting will emphasize state of the art technologies that can answer questions pertinent to ECM biology and pathology that could not be tackled with existing methodologies. In summary, the ASMB meeting provides an exclusive opportunity for interested scientists to meet in a concentrated forum. This is true not only for established investigators but also for young scientists and students, including minorities, on whose participation we place great emphasis.

描述（由申请人提供）：我们请求对将于 2010 年 10 月 24 日至 27 日在南卡罗来纳州查尔斯顿弗朗西斯马里恩酒店举行的美国基质生物学学会 (ASMB) 第五届全国会议提供部分支持。第五届 ASMB会议以上届会议的成功为基础，吸引了来自学术界和工业界不同领域的 400 多名与会者，花了 4 天的时间就矩阵这个广泛的主题进行了激烈的讨论和交流。生物学。我们打算扩大这一成功。为此，我们组建了一个由来自直接或间接影响细胞外基质（ECM）生物学的不同领域的杰出科学家组成的全体会议。会议将以美国国家科学院院士 Elaine Fuchs 博士的主题演讲开始，她将讨论干细胞、ECM 和皮肤癌。接下来的 3 天将包括四场全体会议和六场三场同期会议，重点讨论 ECM 细胞相互作用、ECM 疾病机制、发育和形态发生、工程 ECM、ECM 蛋白质和肌肉骨骼系统、遗传疾病和更多。会议将包括来自不同领域的演讲者，以促进思想的交叉交流。 ASMB 是由基质生物学发展而来的各种专业学科的独特聚会。与大型学会会议不同，ASMB 会议有一个主导主题，并且与专题讨论会不同，它力求涵盖该主题的所有排列，包括新出现的问题、尚未准备就绪的主题以及令人兴奋的新研究领域。特别是，本次会议将强调最先进的技术，这些技术可以回答与 ECM 生物学和病理学相关的问题，而这些问题无法用现有方法解决。总之，ASMB 会议为感兴趣的科学家提供了一个在集中论坛上会面的独特机会。这不仅适用于成熟的研究人员，也适用于年轻的科学家和学生，包括少数族裔，我们非常重视他们的参与。
