Most living organisms show some form of rhythmic activity, often with a daily cycle. These cycles often are maintained even in the absence of external cues such as changing light, and the mechanisms of the relevant 'biological clocks' are not yet clear. This meeting of the Society for Research on Biological Rhythms will discuss a variety of the kinds of biological clocks found in plant and animal organisms. The emphasis of this NSF award is to support attendance by graduate and undergraduate students as trainees, to interact with leaders in the field with diverse specializations. The meeting includes a formal set of 'tutorials' and symposia that provide integration of information for a broad audience, as well as the regular sessions on special areas. The meeting will have substantial impact on the participating students, bringing them to the current leading edge of the field, and promoting interaction with potential future mentors, and impact on biological sciences in general by the integrated perspective.

大多数生物体都表现出某种形式的有节奏的活动，通常以每天为周期。 这些周期通常即使在没有外部线索的情况下也能维持，例如改变光线，相关的“生物钟”机制尚不清楚。 生物节律研究学会的这次会议将讨论在植物和动物有机体中发现的各种生物钟。 这个NSF奖的重点是支持研究生和本科生作为学员出席，与该领域的领导者进行互动，具有不同的专业。 会议包括一套正式的“教程”和专题讨论会，为广大听众提供综合信息，以及关于特别领域的常会。 会议将对参与的学生产生重大影响，使他们了解该领域目前的前沿，并促进与潜在的未来导师的互动，并通过综合视角对生物科学产生影响。
