DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This grant application is to request support for the 41st-45th annual International Narcotics Research Conferences (INRC). The 41st meeting is to be held in Malmo, Sweden from July 11-16, 2010, and will be a satellite meeting to the IUPHAR meeting. The 42nd INRC, which will be a joint meeting with CPDD, will be held in Hollywood, Florida, USA. Plans are underway to finalize venues for the 43rd-45th INRCs. These conferences have been, for many years, the most prestigious international meetings for the dissemination and exchange of information about biomedical research on opiate drugs and the endogenous opioid system. The topics have ranged from molecular mechanisms to behavioral studies and clinical findings. Support is requested primarily for partial travel support to enable young scientists, i.e. graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty, to participate in the Conference. Invited symposium speakers, not normally INRC participants, will receive partial support. Funds requested for administrative and meeting expenses represent ~10% of the total requested funds. The plenary speakers for this year's meeting are: Prof. Tomas Hockfelt (Karolinska, Inst, Sweden), Prof. Tony Yaksh (UCSF, USA) and Prof Jorgen Engel (G"teborg Univ., Sweden). Ten symposia will cover a wide range of topics as described in the application ranging from novel opioid ligands, epigenetics of opioid peptides and receptors, opioids in neuropathic pain, alcohol & gambling addictions and opioid-cannabinoid interactions. A number of relevant contributed papers will be chosen for oral presentation by junior investigators at each symposium. There will be two poster sessions, at which there is always much exchange and discussion. A Data-Blitz session for young scientists is also planned. Future INRC meetings will follow a similar format. Whenever possible, we plan to overlap with other conferences of mutual interest. For example, this year an overlapping day with the International Cannabinoid Research Society meeting in Sweden is planned and next year a 3 day overlap with the College on Problems of Drug Dependence in USA is planned. For participants from many countries, INRC is their only chance to meet and exchange ideas in their field. We feel that participation by many pre- and post- doctoral trainees has resulted, and is likely to continue to result, in recruiting promising scientists to a career of drug abuse research. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Drug addiction is an increasing health concern. The 41st-45th International Narcotics Research Conferences provide opportunities for investigators in the field of drug abuse research to meet and exchange ideas about latest developments in this important area of research.

描述（由申请人提供）：本拨款申请旨在为第 41 至 45 届年度国际麻醉品研究会议 (INRC) 请求支持。第41次会议将于2010年7月11日至16日在瑞典马尔默举行，是IUPHAR会议的卫星会议。第42届INRC将与CPDD联合召开，将于美国佛罗里达州好莱坞举行。目前正在计划确定第 43 至 45 届 INRC 的场地。多年来，这些会议一直是传播和交流阿片类药物和内源性阿片类药物系统生物医学研究信息的最负盛名的国际会议。主题范围从分子机制到行为研究和临床发现。主要要求提供部分差旅支持，以使年轻科学家，即研究生、博士后研究员和初级教师能够参加会议。受邀的研讨会发言人（通常不是 INRC 参与者）将获得部分支持。行政和会议费用申请的资金约占申请资金总额的 10%。今年会议的全体发言人包括：Tomas Hockfelt 教授（瑞典卡罗林斯卡医学院）、Tony Yaksh 教授（美国加州大学旧金山分校）和 Jorgen Engel 教授（瑞典格特堡大学）。十场研讨会将涵盖广泛的领域申请中描述的主题范围包括新型阿片类配体、阿片类肽和受体的表观遗传学、神经性疼痛、酒精和赌博中的阿片类药物每次研讨会上，初级研究人员都会选择一些相关的论文进行口头报告。每次研讨会都会有两次海报会议，其中总会有很多针对年轻人的交流和讨论。未来的 INRC 会议也将遵循类似的形式，我们计划与其他共同感兴趣的会议重叠，例如，计划今年和明年在瑞典举行的国际大麻研究协会会议重叠。一个计划与美国药物依赖问题学院进行为期 3 天的重叠活动。对于来自许多国家的参与者来说，INRC 是他们在各自领域见面和交流想法的唯一机会。我们认为，许多博士前和博士后学员的参与已经并且可能继续导致招募有前途的科学家从事药物滥用研究的职业。 公共卫生相关性：吸毒成瘾是一个日益严重的健康问题。第 41 至 45 届国际麻醉品研究会议为药物滥用研究领域的研究人员提供了就这一重要研究领域的最新发展进行会面和交流想法的机会。
