This award will support the participation of U.S. researchers in a seminar on the "Molecular Cell Biology of Physarum Polycephalum," organized jointly by Professor William F. Dove of the University of Wisconsin and Professor Sadashi Hatano of the University of Nagoya, Japan. United States, Japanese, and invited third-country participants will meet at the National Institute for Basic Biology in Okazaki, Japan in May 1988. Seminar topics will include (1) cell motility, (2) cytoskeleton proteins and their genes, (3) cell differentiation and the cell cycle, (4) extranuclear genes, and (5) new techniques for the study of cellular biology. The myxomycete Physarum polycephalum is considered to be an ideal organism for the study of cell motility, nuclear division, and cell differentiation. The Japanese have done pioneering studies on cytoplasmic streaming and cytoskeletal proteins using this organism, while in the U.S., research on the molecular genetics of Physarum has advanced rapidly. This seminar will provide a forum for the exchange of research results and ideas, and will hopefully lead to increased collaboration between cellular biologists of our two countries.

该奖项将支持美国研究人员参加由威斯康星大学的 William F. Dove 教授和日本名古屋大学的 Sadashi Hatano 教授联合举办的“多头绒泡菌的分子细胞生物学”研讨会。 美国、日本和受邀的第三国参与者将于 1988 年 5 月在日本冈崎的国家基础生物学研究所举行会议。研讨会主题将包括 (1) 细胞运动、(2) 细胞骨架蛋白及其基因、(3) 细胞分化和细胞周期、(4) 核外基因和 (5) 细胞生物学研究新技术。 粘菌多头绒泡菌被认为是研究细胞运动、核分裂和细胞分化的理想生物。 日本人利用这种生物体对细胞质流和细胞骨架蛋白进行了开创性研究，而在美国，对绒泡菌的分子遗传学研究进展迅速。 此次研讨会将为交流研究成果和想法提供一个论坛，并有望加强我们两国细胞生物学家之间的合作。
