The nervous and endocrine systems play a critical role in allowing organisms to cope with environmental stressors. Recent studies on non-mammalian species have identified responses to stress that have adaptive features that do not fit readily into current views, largely based on laboratory animals, that stress is a disorder. This symposium brings together for the first time scientists specifically working on chemical signaling during stress in mammalian and non-mammalian animals. The symposium will cover the phylogenetic diversity of the stress response in invertebrates and vertebrates, the comparative aspects of how mechanisms for responses show specific adaptations, and the integration of how stress responses function in development, reproduction, immune function, and behavior. The symposium itself takes an integrative approach from molecules to behavior, over a wide range of organisms, and is a satellite meeting to the similarly broad Society for Integrative & Comparative Biology. Papers will be presented by graduate students and postdoctoral researchers, as well as senior researchers, and the proceedings will be published an international journal. This symposium will have an impact by giving a unique perspective on a topic of broad interest to animal physiology as well as to neuroscience and behavior, and the exposure of young scientists to these ideas and to interactions with leaders in the field will have an impact on their careers.

神经和内分泌系统在生物体科普环境压力方面发挥着关键作用。 最近对非哺乳动物物种的研究已经确定了对压力的反应，这些反应具有适应性特征，这些特征不容易符合目前的观点，主要是基于实验室动物，压力是一种疾病。 本次研讨会首次汇集了专门研究哺乳动物和非哺乳动物应激过程中化学信号的科学家。 研讨会将涵盖无脊椎动物和脊椎动物应激反应的系统发育多样性，反应机制如何显示特定适应的比较方面，以及应激反应如何在发育，生殖，免疫功能和行为中发挥作用的整合。 研讨会本身采取了从分子到行为的综合方法，在广泛的生物体中，是一个卫星会议，以同样广泛的社会综合比较生物学。 论文将由研究生和博士后研究人员以及高级研究人员提交，会议记录将在国际期刊上发表。 本次研讨会将通过对动物生理学以及神经科学和行为广泛感兴趣的主题提供独特的视角来产生影响，年轻科学家接触这些想法并与该领域的领导者互动将对他们的职业生涯产生影响。
