The PI of this project requests support to pay part of the cost for participants attending the 8th Cyanobacterial Molecular Biology Workshop. This workshop is to be held in Ste. Adele, Quebec, August 25-29, 2004. Funds are to be used to cover partial expenses for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and other junior scientists whose roles as session chairs and speakers comprise the majority of the program. Additionally, travel cost for four invited seminar speakers are requested. This workshop is the main conference in North America focused on molecular aspects of physiology, photosynthesis nitrogen fixation, and ecology in cyanobactera. This conference traditionally attracts up to 120 participants from the U.S., Canada, and Europe. The 2004 Workshop will be held as a satellite meeting to the International Photosynthesis Congress in Montreal, which commences immediately following the Workshop. A factor in scheduling the conference at this time was to help keep conference cost affordable rather than holding it at its previous location in Asilomar State Park California. The workshop will be divided into session focuses on: Nitrogen Fixation and Heterocyst Differentiation, Photosynthesis and Photosynthetic Complexes, Carbon Fixation & Concentration Mechanisms, Stress Responses and Ecological Aspects. Four invited speakers will provide overview of many of the chosen areas. The program, however, relies largely on junior scientists as the main participants. A goal of the project is to attract their attendance by lowering their financial burden. The program is to be assembled to allow maximum participation by women and underrepresented minorities.

该项目的PI请求支持，以支付参加第8届蓝藻分子生物学研讨会的部分费用。这次研讨会将在圣彼得堡举行。阿黛尔，魁北克，2004年8月25日至29日。资金将用于支付研究生、博士后研究员和其他初级科学家的部分费用，他们作为会议主席和演讲者的角色构成了该计划的大部分。此外，还需支付四位受邀研讨会演讲者的旅费。该研讨会是北美的主要会议，重点关注蓝藻的生理学、光合作用、固氮和生态学的分子方面。这次会议传统上吸引了来自美国、加拿大和欧洲的多达120名与会者。2004年讲习班将作为蒙特利尔国际光合作用大会的卫星会议举行，该大会紧随讲习班之后开始。在这个时候安排会议的一个因素是帮助保持负担得起的会议费用，而不是在以前在加利福尼亚州阿西洛马州立公园举行会议。研讨会将分成几个环节，重点讨论：固氮和异形胞分化、光合作用和光合作用复合体、碳固定和浓缩机制、胁迫反应和生态方面。四位受邀的演讲者将概述许多选定的领域。然而，该计划在很大程度上依赖于初级科学家作为主要参与者。该项目的一个目标是通过减轻他们的经济负担来吸引他们参加。该计划旨在最大限度地允许妇女和代表不足的少数族裔参与。
