Molecular biology and evolution are the two fundamental unifying principles of life on earth. It is only through the combination of knowledge from these two disciplines that we can (i) unravel how the molecular components of organisms allowed them to survive their past environments, (ii) understand the challenges imposed by present day ongoing evolution occurring in immune cells, cancer tissues or microbial populations, including pathogens, (iii) predict the future responses of organisms to climate changes and other human-driven current selective pressures. The 2023 Gordon Conference on Molecular Mechanisms in Evolution will assemble international experts in molecular, medical, and evolutionary biology to present the latest findings and diverse perspectives on the molecular basis of evolutionary change. This conference will provide an engaging atmosphere for open and creative discussions aimed at stimulating collaboration among the participants. Short talks and posters will provide young scientists and their ideas access to the opinions and suggestions of the more experienced scientists who are invited speakers and chairs. The conference program will cover a wide range of topics including: the evolution of proteins and RNAs, the evolution of mutation and recombination rates, non-genetic variation and inheritance, metabolic evolution, the making of complex traits. The principal goal of this GRC is to encourage and nurture a community of researchers, spanning several formal disciplines, with a shared interest in the molecular basis of evolutionary change across biological scales. Evolutionary scientists include ecologists, geneticists, evolutionary, cellular, and molecular biologists, as well as physicists, and applied mathematicians. With such a wide range of disciplines, it is important to provide an opportunity to experts in these diverse disciplines to appreciate the important discoveries and new technologies from across the breadth of evolutionary 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.

分子生物学和进化是地球上生命的两个基本统一原则。只有通过这两个学科的知识的结合，我们才能（i）阐明生物体的分子成分如何使它们能够在过去的环境中生存，（ii）了解当今持续的进化所带来的挑战在免疫细胞，癌症组织，癌症组织或微生物种群中发生的挑战，包括病原体（包括病原体，（iii）的未来媒体反应，包括人类的未来反应和其他人类的变化和其他人类的变化。 2023年戈登进化中分子机制的会议将在分子，医学和进化生物学方面汇集国际专家，以呈现有关进化变化的分子基础的最新发现和多种观点。这次会议将为旨在刺激参与者合作的开放和创造性讨论提供一种引人入胜的氛围。简短的谈判和海报将为年轻的科学家及其想法提供邀请的科学家的观点和建议，这些科学家受到演讲者和椅子的邀请。会议计划将涵盖广泛的主题，包括：蛋白质和RNA的演变，突变和重组率的演变，非遗传变异和遗传，代谢进化，复杂性状的形成。该GRC的主要目标是鼓励和培养一个跨越几个正式学科的研究人员社区，对生物量表的进化变化的分子基础具有共同的兴趣。进化科学家包括生态学家，遗传学家，进化论，细胞和分子生物学家，物理学家以及应用数学家。凭借如此广泛的学科，重要的是要为这些不同学科的专家提供机会，以欣赏来自进化科学广度的重要发现和新技术。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的评估来审查的审查审查标准的值得通过评估来支持的。
