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.

关于ID/DD研究的加特林堡会议是一个年度科学会议，旨在促进 智力和发育障碍的生物行为转化研究。会议提供 为所有职业阶段的研究人员提供论坛，以展示和讨论前沿的生物行为研究， 理论会议的重点是沟通国家的最先进的进展，我们的理解， 涉及智力残疾的各种疾病的原因和后果，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， 通过全会讲座探索，虽然专题讨论会或海报会议解决了广泛的主题， IDD从基础到转化和应用科学。这些主题旨在让参与者了解 理论框架，方法和其他学科和研究领域的发现，包括基础 和转化神经科学，以及专注于发展和IDD的文化影响的领域。 从历史上看，加特林堡会议的具体目标是：（a）促进科学交流， 研究结果、理论观点和方法创新，从而加速和鼓励 创新缺碘症转化研究，（B）促进缺碘症跨学科合作研究，（c） 确保生物行为科学家接触到相关的转化和基础科学发现，方法， 以及神经生物学和医学的观点，从而丰富他们的研究， 跨学科性，以及（d）为毕业生提供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，这些目标被修改为包括： 目标是通过支持早期职业发展来增加缺碘症研究界的多样性 来自弱势群体的科学家这些成功的目标在很大程度上没有改变，从以前的 资助的应用程序;然而，目前的建议包括几个创新有关的沟通， 科学对非科学观众，并强调严谨性和研究的可重复性，这两者都是 与会议长期以来对青年科学家发展的重视相吻合。
