2022 APS Intersociety Meeting - Comparative Physiology: From Organisms to Omics in an Uncertain World

该奖项为本科生和研究生、博士后研究员和早期职业研究人员，特别是来自代表性不足群体的个人提供旅费，以便他们可以展示研究成果，并参加2022年10月28日至31日在加利福尼亚州圣地亚哥举行的美国生理学会(APS)跨社会会议--比较生理学：从有机体到不确定世界中的有机体。会议为介绍在理解包括人类和其他动物在内的生物体综合生理学方面的重大进展提供了场所。对于比较生理学家来说，这次会议是一个机会，他们可以报告他们的最新研究发现，并发展激发科学创新的合作。会议的更广泛影响包括生物生理学知识的显著进步，代表人数不足的群体的个人更多地参与比较生理学研究，以及发展一支全球多样化和更具协作性的研究队伍。2022年APS跨社会会议，比较生理学：从有机体到不确定世界中的有机体，旨在促进比较和进化生理学家未来国际合作的思想交流和发展，并鼓励实习生、早期职业研究人员和来自代表性不足群体的个人从事这一学科的研究事业。会议包括全体讲座、专题讨论会、口头和海报演讲、关于该领域技术/教育进步的演讲，以及关于开放电子学在比较生理学中的使用的研讨会。为了实现会议目标，APS将管理一项旅行补助计划，为受训人员(本科生/研究生和博士后研究员)和早期职业调查人员，特别是来自代表性不足群体(妇女、种族/少数民族和残疾人)的个人提供旅行奖励，他们提交的摘要将在会议上提交。预计至少21名个人的旅行将得到支持。该项目将有助于扩大青年科学家的参与，重点放在代表性不足群体的成员身上，让他们接触尖端的生理学研究，并为专业发展和联网提供独特的机会。将准备一份“观点”报告，总结和综合内容和讨论，以推进对不断变化的世界的生物反应的研究。该奖项由综合生态生理学(IEP)和综合组织系统生物部的生理机制和生物力学(PMB)项目共同资助。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award funds travel expenses for undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and early career investigators, in particular individuals from underrepresented groups, so they may present research results and participate in the American Physiological Society (APS) Intersociety Meeting, Comparative Physiology: From Organisms to Omics in an Uncertain World, in San Diego, California, October 28-31, 2022. The meeting provides a venue for the presentation of significant advances in understanding the integrative physiology of organisms, including humans and other animals. This meeting is an opportunity for comparative physiologists to report their newest research discoveries and to develop collaborations that spark scientific innovation. Broader impacts of the meeting include significant advancement of knowledge about organismal physiology, greater participation of individuals from underrepresented groups in comparative physiology research, and development of a globally diverse and more collaborative research workforce. The 2022 APS Intersociety Meeting, Comparative Physiology: From Organisms to Omics in an Uncertain World, seeks to promote the exchange of ideas and development of future collaborations of comparative and evolutionary physiologists internationally, and to encourage trainees, early career investigators, and individuals from underrepresented groups to pursue research careers in this discipline. The conference includes plenary lectures, symposia, contributed oral and poster presentations, presentations on technological/educational advances in the field, and a workshop on the use of open electronics in comparative physiology. In order to achieve the conference objectives, APS will administer a travel grant program offering travel awards to trainees (undergraduate/graduate students and postdoctoral fellows) and early career investigators, in particular individuals from underrepresented groups (women, racial/ethnic minorities, and disabled persons), who submit abstracts to be presented at the meeting. It is expected that travel for at least 21 individuals will be supported. The project will contribute to broadening the participation of young scientists, with an emphasis on members of under-represented groups, exposing them to cutting edge physiological research and providing unique opportunities for professional development and networking. A “perspectives” report that summarizes and synthesizes the content and discussions, to advance the study of organismal responses to a changing world, will be prepared.This award is co-funded by the Integrative Ecological Physiology (IEP) and Physiological Mechanisms and Biomechanics (PMB) Programs in the BIO Division of Integrative Organismal Systems.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.
