This award provides funding to help junior U.S. scientists attend the Thirteenth International Conference on Arabidopsis Research to be held in Seville, Spain, June 28 to July 2, 2002. The aim is to provide an opportunity for these young researchers to exchange ideas with colleagues from around the world on all aspects of research concerning the model plant Arabidopsis. The conference will include sessions on genomics, metabolic regulation, responses to the environment (biotic and abiotic), hormones and signal transduction, genetic mechanisms and epigenetics, natural variation and evolution, cell biology, developmental phase transitions, embryogenesis and vegetative development, reproductive development, and light signaling and circadian regulation. Arabidopsis is an excellent model for crop plant development and physiology, and many of the findings made in Arabidopsis are readily applicable to crop plants. An important component of the meeting is that approximately thirty of those who submitted abstracts of their work will be invited to present that work in short talks. The conference will maximize participation of young scientists by inviting graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior P.I.'s to present many of the talks. Because this is the premier international forum for exchange of the latest results and approaches in Arabidopsis research, it is imperative that young scientists from the US have the opportunity to attend this conference. The funds from this award will provide travel fellowships for approximately thirty junior US scientists. First priority will be given to those junior scientists who have been selected by the meeting organizers to give oral presentations and to junior scientists from underrepresented groups. The fellowships, which will cover approximately half to two thirds of the expected travel and meeting costs, will be administered by the North American Arabidopsis Steering Committee, whose members are elected by electronic ballot by North American subscribers to the Arabidopsis electronic bulletin board ([e-mail], http://www.bio.net/hypermail/ARABIDOPSIS/).

该奖项提供资金，以帮助年轻的美国科学家参加将于2002年6月28日至7月2日在西班牙塞维利亚举行的第十三届拟南芥研究国际会议。其目的是为这些年轻的研究人员提供一个机会，与来自世界各地的同事交流有关模式植物拟南芥研究的各个方面的想法。会议将包括基因组学，代谢调节，对环境的反应（生物和非生物），激素和信号转导，遗传机制和表观遗传学，自然变异和进化，细胞生物学，发育相变，胚胎发生和营养发育，生殖发育，光信号和昼夜节律调节。拟南芥是作物发育和生理学的一个极好的模型，在拟南芥中的许多发现很容易应用于作物。会议的一个重要组成部分是，将邀请提交其工作摘要的大约30人在简短的会谈中介绍其工作。会议将通过邀请研究生，博士后研究员和初级P.I.是来做演讲的因为这是交流拟南芥研究最新成果和方法的首要国际论坛，所以来自美国的年轻科学家有机会参加这次会议是必要的。该奖项的资金将为大约30名美国青年科学家提供旅行奖学金。将首先优先考虑由会议组织者挑选作口头报告的青年科学家和来自代表人数不足群体的青年科学家。这些研究金将支付预期旅费和会议费的大约一半至三分之二，将由北美拟南芥指导委员会管理，其成员由拟南芥电子公告板（[e-mail]，http：//www.bio.net/hypermail/ARABIDOPSIS/）的北美用户通过电子投票选出。
