This award will support graduate student, postdoctoral and early career investigator attendance at the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) meeting at Steamboat Springs, CO on July 14 - 19, 2019. This meeting focuses on Genetic Recombination and Genome Rearrangements and is co-organized by Xiaolan Zhao and Scott Keeney, both at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. The format of the meeting is a combination of 49 invited talks, 15 talks selected from submitted abstracts and several poster sessions. A keynote lecture and two "concepts and challenges" lectures by three leading recombination researchers will begin the meeting. There is a dedicated 1-hour session for trainees to interact with leading experts at the meeting and three separate poster sessions. Two concurrent career-workshops will be held for trainees and early stage investigators. This meeting affords many opportunities (both formal and informal) for sharing recent research findings and exploring collaborations. This is a premier meeting on recombination and genome rearrangements, now in its 18th iteration. Recent advances in chromosome rearrangements, mitotic and meiotic recombination will be highlighted in this conference, which will bring together diverse scientists from across the country and internationally. The session topics include recombination initiation, chromatin substrates for recombination, meiotic recombination, telomeric recombination, DNA damage responses, mutations and chromosome rearrangements, genome instability, homologous pairing and strand exchange, and finally, recombination during DNA replication. The conference primarily highlights unpublished research findings and provides many experiences for young researchers to learn about the field and devise future avenues for research. The meeting will encourage career development of a new generation of researchers, including those who are underrepresented in science.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.

该奖项将支持研究生，博士后和早期职业研究人员参加美国实验生物学学会联合会（FASEB）会议，该会议于2019年7月14日至19日在汽船泉举行。这次会议的重点是遗传修饰和基因组重排，由赵小兰和斯科特基尼共同组织，都在纪念斯隆凯特琳癌症中心。会议的形式是49场特邀演讲、15场从提交的摘要中选出的演讲和几场海报会议。会议开始将有一个主题演讲和两个“概念和挑战”的演讲，由三位领先的重组研究人员主讲。有一个专门的1小时会议，供受训人员在会上与主要专家互动，还有三个单独的海报会议。将同时为学员和早期调查员举办两个职业讲习班。这次会议提供了许多机会（正式和非正式）分享最近的研究成果和探索合作。这是关于重组和基因组重排的第一次会议，现在已经是第18次了。染色体重排，有丝分裂和减数分裂重组的最新进展将在这次会议上突出，这将汇集来自全国各地和国际上的不同科学家。会议的主题包括重组启动，染色质底物重组，减数分裂重组，端粒重组，DNA损伤反应，突变和染色体重排，基因组不稳定性，同源配对和链交换，最后，重组DNA复制过程中。会议主要强调未发表的研究成果，并为年轻研究人员提供许多经验，以了解该领域并设计未来的研究途径。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
