Conference: The 10th International Conference on the Cell and Molecular Biology of Chlamydomonas; Vancouver, B.C., Canada

第十届衣藻细胞分子生物学国际会议将于2002年6月11日至16日在加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华举行。两年一度的衣原体会议汇集了来自欧洲、亚洲、澳大利亚和北美的约200名研究人员组成的高度互动和合作的社区。这一相对较少的科学家群体的国际性已被证明在衣藻作为许多基本生物学问题的模式生物的发展中具有非常宝贵的价值，这些问题包括鞭毛和基础身体功能和组装、细胞器生物合成及其核/细胞器控制、配子分化和生命周期进程、光合作用和趋光性。该奖项提供旅行资金，使受邀的演讲者、博士后研究员和研究生能够参加在温哥华举行的会议。

The 10th International Conference on the Cell and Molecular Biology of Chlamydomonas will be held in Vancouver, B.C., Canada on June 11-16, 2002. The biennial Chlamydomonas meetings bring together a highly interactive and collaborative community of approximately 200 researchers from Europe, Asia, Australia and North America. The international nature of this relatively small group of scientists has proven invaluable in the development of Chlamydomonas as the model organism of choice for many fundamental biological problems, including flagellar and basal body function and assembly, organelle biosynthesis and its nuclear/organelle control, gametic differentiation and life-cycle progression, photosynthesis and phototaxis. This award provides travel funds to enable invited speakers, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students to attend the meeting in Vancouver.
