2012 Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Bioanalytical SensorsThis grant application seeks partial support for the GRC on Bioanalytical Sensors, to be held at Salve Regina University, 17 - 22 June 2012, and its associated Gordon Research Seminar, which will be held at the same location on 16 - 17 June. The objective of this conference is to serve as a conduit for stimulating, but collegial discussions of unpublished data in the areas of biochemistry, biology, chemistry, engineering, medicine, and physics as they apply to the development and applications of bioanalytical sensors. This will be achieved through active participation of attendees in two poster sessions, informal discussions, and 9 oral sessions with 31 speakers and 9 discussion leaders. The data discussed will encompass diverse fields and will address the following themes: 1) molecular recognition using alternatives to standard antibodies, 2) recent advances in optical, electrochemical, and mechanical detection, 3) real-world applications and in vivo sensing, 4) use of nanotechnology to advance understanding of molecular interactions, (5) biocompatible engineered surfaces, and 6) supporting/enabling technologies. Specific topics will include (but are not limited to) single molecule-based sensing, intracellular sensing, biomaterials with enhanced optical or electronic properties, nanoparticles and nanostructures, biocompatibility and the biological/non-biological interface, miniaturization and automation, and multiplexed detection in complex matrices. In addition, the Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) will convene immediately preceding the GRC. Organized and conducted by graduate students and postdocs, the GRS will provide an opportunity for junior scientists to present their own work in an oral format in front of their peers. Participation in this more intimate program (limited to ~35 participants) will enhance the scientific training of these junior investigators and provide to them contacts and potential collaborators. A large proportion of the total proposed budget will go to support GRC and GRS conference fees for graduate and postdoctoral participants as well as emerging researchers. INTELLECTUAL MERIT. Because the field of Bioanalytical Sensors is by its very nature highly interdisciplinary, it is important to provide scientists with information on the latest research in diverse areas directly related to and ancillary to biosensing. The conference program designed for the 2012 GRC addresses many diverse topical areas associated with bioanalytical sensing with presentations by both up-and-coming researchers as well as world renowned scientists with established track records of successful innovation and multidisciplinary endeavors. The discussion leaders - a hallmark of GRCs - are recognized experts in their fields and will be responsible for initiating and maintaining a vigorous, all-inclusive discussion for each talk. It is anticipated that new ideas will be generated, leading to improved instrumentation and materials for future bioanalytical sensor platforms as well as fostering new collaborations. BROADER IMPACT. The broad, long-term objective of the 2012 GRC on Bioanalytical Sensors is to increase the knowledge base by informing participants of the latest research in sensor systems and materials development, systems integration and automation, and other relevant basic and supporting technologies. This meeting will bring together a diverse group of participants with the expectation of forming cross-disciplinary collaborations. These interactions will be critical to bridge the gap between the biological and physical aspects of existing and future bioanalytical sensors. Additionally, the 2012 GRC and its associated GRS represents a significant opportunity to promote diversity in the field of bioanalytical sensing. The invited participants include young scientists and members of groups underrepresented in the fields of chemistry/biology/engineering. The GRS in particular is an exciting opportunity to involve graduate and postdoctoral trainees more fully in the "GRC experience", with formal oral presentations selected by a panel composed of the GRS chairs and vice chairs. Other GRS participants will present posters at both the GRS and GRC. The organizers will seek participation by trainees who are members of underrepresented groups, including women, African-Americans, and Hispanics by soliciting potential attendees from relevant organizations.

2012年戈登研究会议（GRC）生物分析传感器此拨款申请寻求部分支持生物分析传感器的GRC，将于2012年6月17日至22日在Salve Regina大学举行，及其相关的戈登研究研讨会，将于6月16日至17日在同一地点举行。本次会议的目的是作为一个渠道，刺激，但合议讨论未发表的数据在生物化学，生物学，化学，工程，医学和物理学领域，因为它们适用于生物分析传感器的开发和应用。这将通过与会者积极参与两次海报会议、非正式讨论和9次有31名发言者和9名讨论领导人的口头会议来实现。讨论的数据将涵盖不同的领域，并将解决以下主题：1）使用标准抗体的替代品进行分子识别，2）光学，电化学和机械检测的最新进展，3）现实世界的应用和体内传感，4）使用纳米技术来促进对分子相互作用的理解，（5）生物相容性工程表面，以及6）支持/使能技术。具体的主题将包括（但不限于）基于单分子的传感，细胞内传感，具有增强的光学或电子特性的生物材料，纳米颗粒和纳米结构，生物相容性和生物/非生物界面，微型化和自动化，以及复杂基质中的多重检测。 此外，戈登研究研讨会（GRS）将在GRC之前召开。由研究生和博士后组织和进行，GRS将为初级科学家提供一个机会，在同行面前以口头形式展示自己的工作。参与这个更亲密的计划（限于约35名参与者）将加强这些初级研究人员的科学培训，并为他们提供联系人和潜在的合作者。拟议预算总额的很大一部分将用于支持研究生和博士后参与者以及新兴研究人员的GRC和GRS会议费用。智力优势。由于生物分析传感器领域本质上是高度跨学科的，因此为科学家提供与生物传感直接相关和辅助的不同领域的最新研究信息非常重要。为2012年GRC设计的会议计划解决了与生物分析传感相关的许多不同的主题领域，由崭露头角的研究人员以及具有成功创新和多学科努力的既定记录的世界知名科学家进行演讲。讨论领导人-GRCs的标志-是其领域公认的专家，并将负责为每次演讲发起和维持一个充满活力的，包容各方的讨论。预计将产生新的想法，从而为未来的生物分析传感器平台改进仪器和材料，并促进新的合作。更广泛的影响。2012年生物分析传感器研讨会的广泛、长期目标是通过向与会者介绍传感器系统和材料开发、系统集成和自动化以及其他相关基础和支持技术的最新研究来增加知识基础。本次会议将汇集不同的参与者，期望形成跨学科的合作。这些相互作用对于弥合现有和未来生物分析传感器的生物和物理方面之间的差距至关重要。此外，2012年GRC及其相关的GRS代表了促进生物分析传感领域多样性的重要机会。受邀的与会者包括青年科学家和在化学/生物学/工程学领域代表性不足的团体成员。特别是GRS是一个令人兴奋的机会，让研究生和博士后学员更充分地参与“GRC经验”，由GRS主席和副主席组成的小组选择正式的口头演讲。其他GRS参与者将在GRS和GRC上展示海报。组织者将通过向相关组织征集潜在的与会者，寻求代表性不足的群体（包括妇女、非洲裔美国人和西班牙裔美国人）的学员参与。
