This project provides partial funding for the 2003 Gordon Research Conference on RNA Editing, to be held January 19-24 at the Holiday Inn in Ventura, California. This meeting has occurred in alternate years since 1997 and is the only existing meeting devoted exclusively to the field of RNA editing. The meeting serves as the venue where researchers present important and exciting breakthroughs in the field, and recent meetings have featured reports ranging from the development of the first in vitro systems for studying RNA editing in plant organelles, to the first demonstration that RNA editing is crucial for proper neuronal function in mice, flies, and worms. Because the meeting is the only regularly scheduled meeting in the field, it is the primary means by which young researchers are exposed to other scientists in the field. Typically, about 40%of the attendees at the RNA Editing GRC are postdoctoral trainees and graduate students. As is typical of Gordon Research Conferences, the 2003 RNA Editing meeting will be conducted in a relaxed setting that fosters informal discussion between participants. Speakers will be selected based on the significance and quality of their recent scientific contributions, as well as with the goal of achieving diversity among age, gender, and ethnicity. All attendees will be invited to present a poster and, funds permitting, travel awards will be made to select graduate students and postdoctoral applicants.

该项目为将于1月19日至24日在加州文图拉的假日酒店举行的2003年戈登RNA编辑研究会议提供部分资金。 自1997年以来，该会议每隔一年举行一次，是唯一一次专门讨论RNA编辑领域的会议。 该会议是研究人员在该领域取得重要和令人兴奋的突破的场所，最近的会议报告包括第一个用于研究植物细胞器中RNA编辑的体外系统的开发，以及首次证明RNA编辑对小鼠，苍蝇和蠕虫的适当神经元功能至关重要。 由于该会议是该领域唯一定期安排的会议，因此它是年轻研究人员接触该领域其他科学家的主要手段。 通常情况下，RNA编辑GRC约40%的与会者是博士后学员和研究生。作为戈登研究会议的典型代表，2003年RNA编辑会议将在轻松的环境中进行，促进与会者之间的非正式讨论。 演讲者将根据他们最近的科学贡献的重要性和质量来选择，以及实现年龄，性别和种族多样性的目标。 所有与会者将被邀请提出一个海报，并在资金允许的情况下，旅行奖将作出选择研究生和博士后申请人。
