The Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Neural Circuits and Plasticity (formerly Neural Plasticity) has been held in alternate years since 1977. This grant will provide partial support for the June 26-July 1, 2005 meeting at Salve Regina University in Newport, RI. This conference is a highly interdisciplinary meeting in which the formation, function, and plasticity of neural circuits is explored at the molecular, cellular, systems, and computational levels. The 2005 Conference will have 9 scientific sessions, with a keynote talk by Rodolfo Llinas, one of the most renowned scientists studying circuit function and plasticity. The scientific sessions will cover a range of topics of current interest in the field, from synaptogenesis to sensory coding. The speakers and session chairs are all either world leaders in their fields or up-and-coming junior investigators. This meeting promises to move the field forward by fostering interdisciplinary thinking about the development and plasticity of complex circuitry. The broader impact of this meeting resides in part in the multidisciplinary nature of the conference. Investigators working at different levels have a chance to interact on an intimate scale not usually managed in large (but generally narrowly focused) meetings. In addition, this meeting has a tradition of inclusiveness that has helped to promote underrepresented minorities in the field of Neuroscience. Afternoon poster sessions provide an opportunity for all interested participants to present and discuss their work, and each session will include 1 or 2 short talks selected from the submitted abstracts. These short talks will be used to increase the participation of underrepresented groups. This format worked very well in previous years to promote young investigators and women. NSF support will help to fund the attendance of underrepresented groups in the field of Neural Circuit plasticity, including women and ethnic minorities.

戈登研究会议(GRC)关于神经电路和可塑性(以前的神经可塑性)自1977年以来每隔一年举行一次。这笔赠款将为2005年6月26日至7月1日在里约热内卢纽波特的Salve Regina大学举行的会议提供部分支持。这次会议是一次高度跨学科的会议，在分子、细胞、系统和计算水平上探索神经回路的形成、功能和可塑性。2005年的会议将有9个科学会议，由鲁道夫·利纳斯发表主旨演讲，他是研究电路功能和可塑性的最著名的科学家之一。科学会议将涵盖该领域当前感兴趣的一系列主题，从突触发生到感觉编码。发言者和会议主席都是各自领域的世界领袖或崭露头角的初级调查人员。这次会议承诺通过促进对复杂电路的发展和可塑性的跨学科思考来推动该领域的发展。这次会议的更广泛影响部分在于会议的多学科性质。在不同级别工作的调查人员有机会以亲密的规模进行互动，这在大型(但通常是狭隘的)会议中是不常见的。此外，本次会议具有包容的传统，有助于促进神经科学领域中代表性不足的少数群体的发展。下午的海报会议为所有感兴趣的参与者提供了一个机会来介绍和讨论他们的工作，每个会议将包括从提交的摘要中挑选出来的1到2个简短的演讲。这些简短的会谈将被用来增加代表不足的群体的参与。这一形式在前几年很好地促进了年轻调查人员和妇女的晋升。NSF的支持将帮助资助神经回路可塑性领域中代表性不足的群体的出席，包括妇女和少数民族。
