This award will support attendance by graduate students and postdoctoral researchers at the 2019 Gordon Research Conference on RNA Editing to be held in Lucca, Italy on March 23-24, 2019, just prior to the associated Gordon Research Conference. The meeting is organized and chaired by two postdoctoral scientists. The format of the meeting is a combination of talks and posters, which will promote scientific exchange in both formal and informal settings. Participants will also benefit from dedicated career-specific events, including a keynote lecture from a leader in the field and a panel discussion on careers in science by three individuals who have taken different career tracks, e.g., academia, scientific publishing, and industry. Modification and editing of nucleic acid molecules play important roles in regulating gene expression. The scientific focus of this meeting (and the accompanying Gordon Research Conference) will be on "Next Generation" aspects of research in this field. This will have dual benefits in terms of emphasizing the cutting-edge nature of latest findings and promoting the career development of early-career scientists in the field. The meeting will provide an excellent forum for junior investigators, including those from underrepresented groups, to learn about new scientific discoveries and challenges, to meet and talk with leaders in the field, and to have an opportunity to present and receive feedback on their own research.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项将在2019年3月23日至24日在相关的戈登研究会议之前在意大利卢卡举行的2019年戈登RNA编辑会议上的研究生和博士后研究人员的出席。会议由两名博士后科学家组织和主持。 会议的形式是会谈和海报的结合，这将在正式和非正式环境中促进科学交流。 参与者还将受益于专门的职业特定活动，包括来自该领域领导者的主题演讲，以及三个接受不同职业轨道的人，例如学术界，科学出版和行业的科学职业讨论。 核酸分子的修饰和编辑在调节基因表达中起着重要作用。 这次会议的科学重点（以及随附的戈登研究会议）将放在该领域研究的“下一代”方面。 这将在强调最新发现的尖端性质并促进该领域的早期科学家的职业发展方面具有双重好处。 这次会议将为初级调查人员（包括来自代表性不足的小组的研究人员）提供一个很好的论坛，以了解新的科学发现和挑战，与该领域的领导人见面并与之交谈，并有机会就自己的研究表达和接收反馈。这奖反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过评估基础的智力效果和宽阔的范围来进行评估，并以评估的评估值得评估。
