The Gatlinburg Conference on Research in ID/DD is an annual scientific meeting designed to advance translational biobehavioral research on intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). The meeting provides a forum for investigators at all career stages to present and discuss cutting-edge biobehavioral research and theory. The conference focuses on communicating state-of-the-art advances in our understanding of the causes and consequences of various disorders involving intellectual disability, as well as to reveal new interventions designed to ameliorate specific disorders. Each year’s conference has a scientific theme that is explored through plenary lectures, although symposia or poster sessions address a broad range of topics on IDD from basic to translational and applied science. The themes are designed to expose participants to theoretical frameworks, methods, and findings from other disciplines and fields of study, including from basic and translational neuroscience, as well as fields focused on cultural influences on development and IDD. Historically, the specific aims of the Gatlinburg Conference have been to (a) promote the exchange of scientific findings, theoretical perspectives, and methodological innovations and thereby accelerate, and encourage innovation in, translational research on IDD, (b) facilitate collaborative interdisciplinary research on IDD, (c) ensure that biobehavioral scientists are exposed to relevant translational and basic science findings, methods, and perspectives from neurobiology and medicine, thereby enriching their research and further supporting interdisciplinarity, and (d) serve as an interdisciplinary training and career development resource for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and early career faculty. More recently the aims have been modified to include goals to increase the diversity of the IDD research community by supporting the development of early career scientists from under-represented groups. These successful aims are largely unchanged from the previously funded application; however, the current proposal includes several innovations related to communication of science to nonscientific audiences, and an emphasis on rigor and reproducibility in research, both of which dovetail well with the conference’s longstanding emphasis on the development of junior scientists.

盖特林堡ID/DD研究会议是一个年度科学会议，旨在推动 智力和发育障碍(IDD)的翻译生物行为研究。会议提供了 为所有职业阶段的研究人员提供和讨论尖端生物行为研究和 理论。会议的重点是传达最新的进展，我们对 涉及智力残疾的各种障碍的原因和后果，以及揭示新的 旨在改善特定疾病的干预措施。每年的会议都有一个科学主题，即 通过全体讲座进行探讨，尽管座谈会或海报会议涉及广泛的主题 IDD从基础科学到翻译和应用科学。这些主题旨在让参与者了解 来自其他学科和研究领域的理论框架、方法和发现，包括基础 和翻译神经科学，以及侧重于文化对发展和缺碘的影响的领域。 从历史上看，盖特林堡会议的具体目标是：(A)促进科学交流 发现、理论观点和方法创新，从而加速和鼓励 关于缺碘的创新，翻译研究，(B)促进关于缺碘的跨学科研究，(C) 确保生物行为科学家接触到相关的翻译和基础科学发现、方法、 和来自神经生物学和医学的观点，从而丰富了他们的研究并进一步支持 跨学科；(D)作为毕业生的跨学科培训和职业发展资源 学生、博士后研究员和早期职业教师。最近，这些目标已被修改为包括 通过支持早期职业发展来增加缺乏症研究界的多样性的目标 来自代表性不足群体的科学家。这些成功的目标与之前的基本没有变化 资助的申请；然而，目前的提案包括几项与 面向非科学受众的科学，以及对研究的严谨性和重复性的强调，这两项 与会议长期以来对初级科学家发展的重视很好地契合。
