Conference: FASEB Summer Conference on ION Channel Regulation to be held June 14-19, 2003 in Tuscon, AZ

普渡大学的桑德拉·罗西博士获得了一笔赠款，用于支持离子通道调控研讨会。这次研讨会是美国实验生物学学会联合会(FASE B)夏季系列会议的一部分，将于2003年6月14-19日在亚利桑那州图森市举行。最近离子通道调节研究取得了许多进展，使这次会议非常及时。将选出大约145名与会者，这次会议的一个新特点将是包括供受训人员与会议主要发言者进行非正式发言的讨论会。这次会议将把离子通道监管领域的领导者聚集在一起，制定该领域在不久的将来的发展方向。资金将用于支付演讲者的旅费，并为来自美国机构的初级调查人员提供旅行奖励。正在努力将妇女和代表性不足群体的成员包括在内

A grant has been awarded to Dr. Sandra Rossie from Purdue University to support a symposium on ion channel regulation. The symposium is part of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) summer conference series and will be held on June 14-19, 2003 in Tucson, Arizona. Many recent advances in ion channel regulation research have occurred making this conference very timely. About 145 participants will be selected and a novel feature of this meeting will be the inclusion of discussion sessions for trainees to speak informally with the main speakers of the conference. This meeting will bring together the leaders in ion channel regulation to formulate the directions this field will take in the immediate future. Funds will be used to cover speakers' travel expenses and to provide travel awards for junior investigators from U.S. institutions. An effort is being made to include women and members of underrepresented groups
