The award will provide support for early career scientists, including graduate students and post-doctoral researchers, to attend the 2023 Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on Chromosome Dynamics in Lucca, Italy, just prior to the corresponding Gordon Research Conference (GRC). These conferences bring together diverse scientists who study chromosome biology from different disciplinary perspectives (molecular and cellular biology, genetics, genomics, biophysics, biochemistry, evolutionary biology, among others). The research advances foundational knowledge about genome architecture, dynamics, and function, which has implications for various sectors of the bioeconomy, including biotechnology, agriculture, and medicine. The GRS serves as a forum for junior US and international scientists to present unpublished research, exchange ideas and resources, benefit from career mentoring, and build their professional network. The GRS is organized and co-chaired by a post-doctoral scholar, which serves as a notable career development experience. The GRS and associated GRC will advance research on the mechanisms of formation, repair, and maintenance of chromosomes from molecular to organism scales and through evolution. Investigators from around the world will have the opportunity to discuss pioneering ideas and emerging technologies in the field and potentially launch new collaborations. The GRS in particular will facilitate training and professional development of a diverse group of scientists in the field of chromosome biology.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.

该奖项将为早期职业科学家提供支持，包括研究生和博士后研究人员，参加2023年在意大利卢卡举行的染色体动力学戈登研究研讨会（GRS），就在相应的戈登研究会议（GRC）之前。这些会议汇集了从不同学科角度（分子和细胞生物学、遗传学、基因组学、生物物理学、生物化学、进化生物学等）研究染色体生物学的不同科学家。这项研究推进了基因组结构、动力学和功能的基础知识，对生物经济的各个领域，包括生物技术、农业和医学都有影响。GRS为美国和国际青年科学家提供了一个论坛，供他们展示未发表的研究成果，交流思想和资源，从职业指导中受益，并建立他们的专业网络。GRS由博士后学者组织和共同主持，这是一个值得注意的职业发展经验。GRS和相关的GRC将推进染色体形成、修复和维持机制的研究，从分子尺度到生物尺度，并通过进化。来自世界各地的研究人员将有机会讨论该领域的先锋思想和新兴技术，并有可能启动新的合作。GRS尤其将促进染色体生物学领域不同科学家群体的培训和专业发展。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。
