International Workshop on Gene Organization and Expression in Bacteriophages, July 4-8, 1988, Salamanca, Spain

资助美国科学家参加第八届国际噬菌体研讨会“噬菌体中的基因组织和表达”的部分差旅费。该研讨会将于1988年7月4日至8日在西班牙萨拉曼卡举行，由欧洲分子生物学组织（EMB）主办。会议的美方代表是美国微生物学会噬菌体分会。会议将讨论噬菌体及其宿主分子生物学中的基本问题。在分子水平上理解这些过程的进展极大地促进了研究和生物技术的进步，因此支持这一领域的基础研究是很有道理的。

Funding is provided for partial travel expenses of U.S. scientists to participate in the Eighth International Phage Workshop, entitled "Gene Organization and Expression in Bacteriophages". The workshop will be held in Salamanca, Spain, from July 4-8, 1988 under the auspices of the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMB). The American side of the meeting is being organized on behalf of the Bacteriophage Division of the American Society for Microbiology. The meeting will deal with fundamental problems in the molecular biology of bacteriophage and their hosts. Progress in understanding these processes at the molecular level has contributed greatly to advances in research and biotechnology, and support of basic research in this area is therefore well justified.
