项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The American Society for Virology (ASV) seeks a multi-year block grant to provide partial support for pre-doctoral students, post-doctoral fellows and U.S. under-graduate teachers of virology to participate in the annual ASV scientific meetings from 2011 to 2015. The 2011 ASV meeting will be held July 16-20th at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis. The objective of this application is to provide partial support for junior virologists, with particular emphasis on participation by women and underrepresented minority virologists, to broadly enhance virology research and training. A total of $30,000 per year is requested to fund awards for pre- and post- doctoral trainees at $500 each and teachers at $1,000 each. Members of the ASV Graduate Student/Post-doctoral Travel Award Committee and the Education and Career Development Committee evaluate, respectively, the applications from students and fellows, who must submit an abstract describing their work for presentation in workshops or poster sessions, and from teachers, who submit an essay explaining the benefit of ASV meeting attendance for their teaching and mentoring activities. In addition to providing information about travel awards to its members, ASV announces the availability of travel awards to ~ 100 U.S. minority schools and institutions. Post-meeting evaluations that focus on the benefits of meeting participation are obtained by questionnaires from awardees. The ASV meeting provides an opportunity for U.S. junior scientists to meet and interact directly with established virologists and to learn in symposia, workshops, poster sessions, and special satellite symposia about the most recent developments in numerous virology research areas, including the viruses of humans, animals, plants, invertebrates and prokaryotes. The ASV annual meeting is one of the few general virology meetings with a wide breathe of offerings, which serve to enhance opportunities for cross- fertilization of ideas and technologies across the whole of the virus world. This scope spans topics such as viral genetics, structure, replication, pathogenesis, evolution and emergence, and disease control and prevention. Work presented at the ASV annual meetings has applications in many fields, including cardiology, gastroenterology, hematology, immunology, infectious diseases, neurology, oncology and pediatrics. It is the conviction of the ASV that supporting virology research in this way enhances investigative efforts required to prevent and treat viral diseases and positively impacts U.S. efforts in public health. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The American Society for Virology (ASV) has fostered the research training of junior virologists by encouraging their participation at its annual meetings for 30 years. The ASV annual meetings offer numerous opportunities to enhance collaborations and exchange ideas and technologies across the broad field of virology, and thus its meetings contribute to the health promotion and disease prevention objectives of the PHS "Healthy People 2010". As diseases caused by viruses continue to pose major threats to domestic and international health, continued training of junior investigators and U.S. undergraduate teachers in virology research afforded by attendance at the ASV annual meetings is of paramount importance.

描述（由申请人提供）：美国病毒学学会（ASV）寻求多年期整笔拨款，为博士前学生、博士后研究员和美国病毒学本科教师参加年度 ASV 活动提供部分支持2011年至2015年的科学会议。2011年ASV会议将于7月16日至20日在明尼阿波利斯市的明尼苏达大学举行。该应用程序的目的是为初级病毒学家提供部分支持，特别强调女性和代表性不足的少数族裔病毒学家的参与，以广泛加强病毒学研究和培训。每年总共需要 30,000 美元，用于资助博士前和博士后学员每人 500 美元，教师每人 1,000 美元。 ASV 研究生/博士后旅行奖励委员会以及教育和职业发展委员会的成员分别评估学生和研究员的申请，学生和研究员必须提交一份描述其工作的摘要，以便在研讨会或海报会议上展示，以及教师的申请，他们提交了一篇文章，解释了参加 ASV 会议对其教学和指导活动的好处。除了向其会员提供有关旅行奖励的信息外，ASV 还宣布向约 100 所美国少数族裔学校和机构提供旅行奖励。通过对获奖者的问卷调查获得关注会议参与效益的会后评估。 ASV 会议为美国初级科学家提供了一个与知名病毒学家直接会面和互动的机会，并通过研讨会、讲习班、海报会议和特别卫星研讨会了解许多病毒学研究领域的最新进展，包括人类病毒、动物、植物、无脊椎动物和原核生物。 ASV 年会是为数不多的提供广泛内容的普通病毒学会议之一，旨在增加整个病毒世界的思想和技术交叉传播的机会。该范围涵盖病毒遗传学、结构、复制、发病机制、进化和出现以及疾病控制和预防等主题。 ASV 年会上提出的工作在许多领域都有应用，包括心脏病学、胃肠病学、血液学、免疫学、传染病、神经病学、肿瘤学和儿科。 ASV 坚信，以这种方式支持病毒学研究可以加强预防和治疗病毒性疾病所需的调查工作，并对美国在公共卫生方面的努力产生积极影响。公共卫生相关性：美国病毒学学会 (ASV) 30 年来一直鼓励初级病毒学家参加其年会，以促进初级病毒学家的研究培训。 ASV年会提供了许多机会来加强广泛的病毒学领域的合作以及交流思想和技术，因此其会议有助于实现PHS“健康人民2010”的健康促进和疾病预防目标。由于病毒引起的疾病继续对国内和国际健康构成重大威胁，通过参加 ASV 年会来对初级研究人员和美国本科教师进行病毒学研究的持续培训至关重要。
