The 2003 FASEB Summer Research Conference on "Genetic Recombination and Genomic Rearrangements" will be held July 26 through July 31 at Snowmass Village, Colorado, and will be the tenth of a highly successful series of bi-annual conferences on genetic recombination. These conferences join investigators studying many diverse aspects of genetic recombination in a range of biological systems and with different experimental approaches. Presentations will introduce new and unpublished work on timely questions in the field and will encourage discussion from all participants. Eight plenary sessions will involve topics such as recombination mechanisms, properties of prokaryotic and eukaryotic recombination, meiotic processes, the role of recombinational processes in repair of DNA damage, site-specific recombination and transposition, and genomic rearrangements. Over forty speakers, among the best experimentalists and thinkers in these particular areas, have agreed to present their most recent and unpublished work. Approximately 160 other participants will be chosen from among the applicants to the conference. While maintaining rigorous standards of excellence in selecting participants, every attention will be paid to achieving a balanced representation of age, gender, race and geography. All will be encouraged to participate in discussion, workshops and poster sessions. There will be a workshop on a controversial topic, the role of the Mus81 complexes in recombination intermediate processing. Two poster sessions, each lasting two days, will provide an additional forum for presentation of current work. By emphasizing truly exceptional research in a modestly sized conference setting, the FASEB conferences provide unique opportunities for the exchange of information, technology and perspective among new and established investigators in the recombination field. NSF funding will allow participants in need of financial support to attend this important conference. This group is expected to include new investigators, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. The NSF support will ensure the future vitality of this important field of research.

关于“基因重组和基因组重排”的2003年FASEB夏季研究会议将于7月26日至7月31日在科罗拉多州的斯诺马斯村举行，这将是关于基因重组的非常成功的两年一度的系列会议中的第十次。这些会议加入了研究人员的行列，用不同的实验方法在一系列生物系统中研究基因重组的许多不同方面。演讲将介绍关于实地及时问题的新的和未发表的工作，并将鼓励所有参与者进行讨论。八次全体会议将涉及重组机制、原核和真核重组的性质、减数分裂过程、重组过程在DNA损伤修复中的作用、特定部位重组和转座以及基因组重排等主题。40多位演讲者，在这些特定领域中最好的实验者和思想家中，已经同意展示他们最新和未发表的作品。将从参加会议的申请者中选出大约160名其他与会者。在保持挑选参与者的严格优秀标准的同时，将尽一切努力实现年龄、性别、种族和地域的均衡代表性。将鼓励所有人参加讨论、研讨会和海报会议。将有一个关于MUS81复合体在重组中间过程中的作用这一有争议的话题的研讨会。每次为期两天的两次海报会议将为介绍当前工作提供一个额外的论坛。通过强调在中等规模的会议环境中进行真正特殊的研究，FASEB会议为重组领域的新老研究人员提供了交流信息、技术和观点的独特机会。NSF的资助将允许需要资金支持的与会者参加这一重要会议。这一群体预计将包括新的研究人员、研究生和博士后研究员。NSF的支持将确保这一重要研究领域未来的活力。
