This grant provides partial travel support for US participants to Plasmodesma 2001, the fourth international workshop on plasmodesmatal biology, to be held in Cape Town, South Africa, August 19-24, 2001. The workshop will bring together junior and senior scientists from around the world to discuss many aspects of plasmodesmata science, basic and applied. These topics include: plasmodesmata structure anddevelopment, virus movement, solute transport, symplastic domains and regulation, macromolecular trafficking, and gene silencing.Plasmodesmata research is very active at present and is moving quickly on many fronts. The cross-fertilization of ideas that conferences are noted for is especially important in this multidisciplinary field, where the subject matter and techniques used by one group may be quite foreign to another. A total ofapproximately thirty speakers will be invited on the basis of submitted abstracts.Others will be encouraged to present posters and short talks. The funds from this award will be used to support the travel and per diem expenses of US scientists, most of junior rank (graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and assistant professors).

这笔赠款为美国参加将于2001年8月19日至24日在南非开普敦举行的第四届胞间连丝生物学国际研讨会2001年胞间连丝提供部分旅费支助。研讨会将汇集来自世界各地的初级和高级科学家，讨论胞间连丝科学的许多方面，基础和应用。这些主题包括：胞间连丝的结构与发育、病毒运动、溶质运输、共质体结构域与调控、大分子运输和基因沉默等方面的研究，目前胞间连丝的研究十分活跃，并在多个领域取得了快速进展。在这个多学科的领域，会议以交流思想而闻名，这一点尤其重要，因为一个团体所使用的主题和技术对另一个团体来说可能非常陌生。根据提交的摘要，将邀请大约30位演讲者，并鼓励其他人展示海报和进行简短的演讲。该奖项的资金将用于支持美国科学家的差旅费和每日津贴，其中大部分是初级科学家（研究生，博士后研究员和助理教授）。
