This award provides funds to support the participation of young investigators in the annual meeting of the Sun Valley Workshop on Musculoskeletal Biology held in Sun Valley, Idaho, August 3-6, 2014. The Workshops have a 40 year tradition, and emphasize active interaction of junior faculty and students. The Workshops promote interdisciplinary communication, and are unusual in that discussion time equals or exceeds time allotted for formal presentation. The goals of the Workshop are to (1) work toward a multidisciplinary basic and clinical synthesis of molecular, tissue and biomechanical processes related to the pathogenesis, prevention and treatment of bone and joint diseases; (2) provide training workshops for young investigators that help bridge the gaps between disciplines; (3) provide a forum for student training and the opportunity for junior investigators to talk with more senior scientists in a small group setting. This 2014 Workshop will address the theme of The Interaction of Bone with Other Organ Systems through sessions focused on the Regulation of Skeletal Processes by Neuropeptides, the Association Between Bone Fragility and Vascular Calcification, the Association between Skeletal Muscle and Bone Biological and Biomechanical Properties, the Interaction of Bone and the Immune System, and the Regulation of Bone Health by the Gut Microbiome. This Workshop is relevant to public health concerns because it brings a multi-disciplinary group of senior and junior scientists together to discuss the interaction of bone with other organ systems. It provides vertically-oriented integration, from basic science to clinical pathology, to practitioners and scientists who are not completely familiar with all aspects of these diseases of societal concern.Opportunities are provided for junior investigators to interact with more senior investigators. A Career Development Workshop geared toward young investigators will include sections on "How do I put together a curriculum vitae?" and a panel discussion on "The Interview Process". As an additional aspect of mentorship, pre-workshop young investigator mentors have been assigned to work with young investigators who will be giving talks. An internationally-recognized scholar, Dr. Steven Goldring, has been invited to provide a Plenary Lecture. The summarized results of the workshop are disseminated widely through BoneKEy, the online journal of the International Bone and Mineral Society: http://www.bonekey-ibms.org/misc/Meetingsupplements.dtl. The abstracts can be accessed prior to the Workshop as well: www.ibmsonline.org/Meetings.

该奖项提供资金，支持青年研究人员参加2014年8月3日至6日在爱达荷州太阳谷举行的太阳谷肌肉骨骼生物学研讨会年会。这些工作坊有40年的历史，强调初级教职员工和学生之间的积极互动。讲习班促进跨学科交流，其不同寻常之处在于，讨论时间等于或超过分配给正式陈述的时间。讲习班的目标是：(1)致力于对与骨和关节疾病的发病机制、预防和治疗有关的分子、组织和生物力学过程进行多学科的基础和临床综合；(2)为年轻研究人员提供培训讲习班，帮助弥合各学科之间的差距；(3)为学生培训提供一个论坛，并让初级研究人员有机会在小组活动中与更多资深科学家交谈。2014年的研讨会将通过神经肽对骨骼过程的调节、骨骼脆性与血管钙化之间的关系、骨骼肌肉与骨的生物和生物力学特性之间的关系、骨与免疫系统的相互作用以及肠道微生物群对骨健康的调节等会议，讨论骨与其他器官系统的相互作用的主题。这个研讨会与公共卫生问题相关，因为它聚集了一个由资深和初级科学家组成的多学科小组，讨论骨骼与其他器官系统的相互作用。它为不完全熟悉这些社会关注的疾病的所有方面的从业者和科学家提供了从基础科学到临床病理学的纵向整合。为初级调查人员提供了与更高级的调查人员互动的机会。一个面向年轻研究人员的职业发展研讨会将包括“我如何整理一份简历？”以及关于“面试过程”的小组讨论。作为辅导的另一个方面，研讨会前的年轻调查员导师被指派与将进行演讲的年轻调查员一起工作。国际知名学者史蒂文·戈德林博士应邀作全会演讲。研讨会的总结成果通过国际骨与矿物学会的在线期刊BoneKEy广泛传播：http://www.bonekey-ibms.org/misc/Meetingsupplements.dtl.这些摘要也可在讲习班之前查阅：www.ibmsonline.org/Meetings。
