This application requests funds for a conference of chemosensory scientists from universities in the Intermountain Region including Utah, Idaho, and Colorado. The conference will meet on February 9-12, 2001 at Jackson, Wyoming. Two outside speakers using novel functional imaging techniques will be invited. The meeting will be organized around three objectives: 1) presentation of innovative experimental techniques; 2) small group "brain storming" sessions to focus on identifying new directions for chemosensory studies applying the techniques described in the first objective; 3) establishment of collaborative projects.The outcome of this meeting will be to establish new strategies for recording the functional activity of chemosensory neurons. Synthesis of cutting edge research findings from scientists studying organisms ranging from insects, cephalopods, amphibians, fish, mammals, and man will lead to exciting new advances in the field. A small number of participants with ample time for formal presentations and informal interactions will foster new collaborations and general sharing of expertise. Graduate students, post-docs and research associates will have full access to faculty and be encouraged to actively participate in all sessions. Efforts will be made to actively involve women and minorities in all aspects of the meeting.

这份申请申请了来自犹他州、爱达荷州和科罗拉多州等山区大学的化学传感科学家会议的资金。会议将于2001年2月9日至12日在怀俄明州杰克逊市举行。将邀请两名使用新功能成像技术的外部演讲者。会议将围绕三个目标组织：1)介绍创新的实验技术；2)小组“头脑风暴”会议，重点是确定应用第一个目标中描述的技术进行化学感觉研究的新方向；3)建立合作项目。这次会议的结果将是建立记录化学感觉神经元功能活动的新策略。综合科学家研究昆虫、头足类、两栖动物、鱼类、哺乳动物和人类等生物的尖端研究成果，将在该领域取得令人兴奋的新进展。少数与会者有充足的时间进行正式介绍和非正式互动，这将促进新的合作和普遍分享专业知识。研究生、博士后和研究助理将完全接触教职员工，并鼓励他们积极参与所有课程。将努力让妇女和少数群体积极参与会议的各个方面。
