This grant is to support travel by participants in a symposium entitled "Compensatory responses of mitochondria in stressful environments", as part of the Sixth International Congress of Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry (ICCPB) of the International Union of Biological Sciences (IUBS), to be held 2-8 February 2003 at the Mt. Buller campus of LaTrobe University, Melbourne Australia. Mitochondria are well known for producing the majority of cellular energy. This organelle has received renewed attention because of novel responses to environmental challenges imposed on cells and organisms within which it resides, and because mitochondrial dysfunction is increasingly recognized as the basis for a large number of human metabolic diseases. Cellular insults that alter mitochondrial function can result in reduced energy production for cellular andorganismal survival. Recent work in this field by symposium participants has provided exciting new concepts on mitochondrial function and technological innovation. From this symposium, a new synthesis of ideas will be published in a proceedings format, and new and renewed collaborations are expected to ensue. This award will support both invited speakers and participating presenters, up to 8 people in total, 4 female and 4 male. The participants from several US institutions range in stage of academic career from full professor to graduate student. Scientific meetings are one of the best avenues available to foster and promote research and technological exchanges, collaborations, and career enhancement opportunities. The ICCPB, in its 4-year cycle, has consistently been a premier meeting for workers in the field, and the 6th ICCPB should continue in this tradition.

这笔赠款将用于资助参加题为“线粒体在紧张环境中的补偿反应”的专题讨论会的与会者的旅费，该专题讨论会是国际生物科学联合会第六届比较生理学和生物化学国际大会的一部分，将于2003年2月2日至8日在日内瓦举行。拉特罗布大学布勒校区，墨尔本澳大利亚。 众所周知，线粒体产生大部分细胞能量。这种细胞器已经得到了重新的关注，因为它所在的细胞和生物体对环境挑战的新反应，并且因为线粒体功能障碍越来越多地被认为是大量人类代谢疾病的基础。 改变线粒体功能的细胞损伤可导致细胞和生物体生存所需的能量产生减少。 研讨会参与者最近在这一领域的工作提供了令人兴奋的线粒体功能和技术创新的新概念。 从这次专题讨论会开始，将以会议记录的形式出版一份新的想法综述，预计将继续进行新的和更新的合作。 该奖项将支持受邀演讲者和参与演讲者，共8人，4名女性和4名男性。 来自美国几所大学的参与者从正教授到研究生的学术生涯阶段不等。 科学会议是促进和促进研究和技术交流，合作和职业发展机会的最佳途径之一。 ICCPB在其四年周期中一直是该领域工作者的首要会议，第六届ICCPB应继续保持这一传统。
