LAY SUMMARY Proposal IBN 98-02418 "CONFERENCE: Molecular Diversity of Ion Channels and Receptors" Bernardo Rudy, P.I. This proposal is for an international conference on the diversity of form and function found among complex molecules of the membrane of living nerve cells. The molecules of interest are of two sorts: "Ion channels" allow charged small molecules such as sodium, potassium and calcium ions to pass into and out of the nerve cells. "Receptors" react to signal molecules (neurotransmitters) released by other nerve cells to communicate the signal to the interior of the cell. Together, these molecules are responsible for some of the key steps in the processing and storage of information and the regulation of behavior by the nervous system. The program will bring together eminent scholars and junior scientists with overlapping interests in a very dynamic field of study. The goal is to examine and share new technical advances in the area and to consider the conceptual foundations of ion channel biophysics and physiology. These goals are central to our progressively better understanding of the brain.

IBN 98-02418“会议：离子通道和受体的分子多样性”Bernardo Rudy，这项提议是为了召开一次国际会议，讨论在活的神经细胞膜的复杂分子中发现的形式和功能的多样性。感兴趣的分子有两种：“离子通道”允许带电的小分子，如钠、钾和钙离子进出神经细胞。“受体”与其他神经细胞释放的信号分子(神经递质)发生反应，将信号传递到细胞内部。这些分子共同负责信息处理和存储的一些关键步骤，以及神经系统对行为的调节。该计划将汇集杰出的学者和初级科学家，他们在一个非常动态的研究领域有着重叠的兴趣。目标是审查和分享该领域的新技术进步，并考虑离子通道生物物理学和生理学的概念基础。这些目标是我们逐步更好地了解大脑的核心。
