PROJECT SUMMARY This application seeks funds for junior investigators and trainees to attend the biennial Federation of American Societies of Experimental Biology (FASEB) Science Research Conferences on the “The Biology and Chemistry of Vision”. Since its inception in 1985, this has been one of the most successful and influential meetings focused on photoreceptor biology. The major goal of the meeting is to bring together established and young scientists to discuss the most recent advances in the broad and diverse fields of photoreceptor biology and pathobiology. This focused meeting is held in an intimate setting (small conference center with shared meals) for a relatively small number of researchers (~150) in order to catalyze scientific interchange. The program combines high- quality, formal presentations of novel experimental results with informal interactions in a friendly, collegial atmosphere. The meeting also has tremendous educational, career-development and networking value for junior investigators. Accordingly, the funding requested in this application will be used for covering the travel expenses and conference fees for the young scientists, including pre- and post-doctoral trainees and junior investigators at the level of assistant professor. The program emphasizes the most recent, and often most controversial, research in the field, address timely questions and identifies emerging trends, all of which catalyzes collaborations for future work. In 2021, the program will include 9 platform sessions, 4 poster sessions, two DataBlitz presentations, a keynote speaker, and a career development workshop focused on grant writing.

项目概要 该申请为初级研究人员和受训人员寻求资金，以参加两年一度的美国联合会 实验生物学会（FASEB）关于“生物学和化学”的科学研究会议 愿景”。自 1985 年创办以来，这是最成功、最有影响力的会议之一，重点关注 关于光感受器生物学。会议的主要目标是将知名科学家和年轻科学家聚集在一起 讨论光感受器生物学和病理学广泛而多样的领域的最新进展。 这次重点会议在私密的环境中（提供共享餐点的小型会议中心）举行， 少量研究人员（约 150 名）以促进科学交流。该计划结合了高 高质量、正式地展示新颖的实验结果，并在友好的学院氛围中进行非正式的互动 气氛。该会议还对青少年具有巨大的教育、职业发展和交流价值 调查人员。因此，本申请中要求的资金将用于支付差旅费 以及年轻科学家的会议费，包括博士前和博士后实习生以及初级研究人员 助理教授级别。该计划强调最新的、通常也是最具争议的、 实地研究，及时解决问题并确定新兴趋势，所有这些都促进 未来工作的合作。 2021年，该计划将包括9场平台会议、4场海报会议、2场 DataBlitz 演示、主旨演讲以及专注于资助写作的职业发展研讨会。
