Project Summary: Although speech production is arguably the most complex, yet routine, motor skill that humans perform, there are only two major conferences in the area of speech motor control: the International Conference on Speech Motor Control and the Madonna Conference on Motor Speech. Both occur relatively infrequently. As such, there is a need for more options to share current research in speech motor control. The goal of this R13 application is to support a new, intentionally accessible and inclusive regional conference in speech motor control to augment the current meetings. The Boston Speech Motor Control Symposium (BSMCS) draws on the high concentration of individuals in the Boston metropolitan area and areas surrounding Boston that are reachable by car and train. In order to increase the pipeline of promising under-represented minority (URM) researchers in this area, BSMCS is designed to reduce barriers to attendance for these individuals. BSMCS will be low-cost ($40 registration; $10 for students) and short (one full conference day with an optional tutorial the evening prior for trainees). BSMCS will provide travel awards to students and post-doctoral researchers, with preference to URMs. It will incorporate best-practices to allow for inclusion of working parents, such as free on-site childcare and access to lactation rooms [1]. Finally, BSMCS will offer continuing education units (CEUs) to attendees who are speech-language pathologists (SLPs). Attracting SLP attendees will 1) encourage the dissemination of cutting-edge research that can facilitate clinical translation, and 2) further bolster the pipeline of new researchers in this area by attracting SLPs to doctoral study. The primary purpose of this R13 conference grant proposal is to request support from NIDCD for trainee travel awards, travel expenses of invited speakers from outside the Boston area, family care provider expenses, conference supplies, and poster board rentals during BSMCS 2019, 2021, and 2023. Boston University (BU) will provide an equal match to the NIDCD contribution to each of these items. The conference registration fees and additional funds from BU will cover all additional costs for the conference. Each year's meeting will include a one-day program that consists of 5 invited talks (one keynote lecture and four other expert seminars), with the remainder of the program devoted to contributed talks and a contributed poster session. Additionally, each year there will be a trainee tutorial held the evening prior to the full day of the symposium, which will be free of charge for all students and post-doctoral researchers. NIDCD funding will allow BSMCS to meet the goals of accessibility and inclusivity, fostering research and education in speech motor control across diverse groups of students, researchers, and clinicians.

项目摘要： 虽然言语产生可以说是人类最复杂的，但常规的运动技能， 在言语运动控制领域，只有两个主要的会议：国际言语会议 马达控制和马达语言麦当娜会议。这两种情况相对较少发生。因此，在 是需要更多的选择来分享目前在语言运动控制方面的研究。此R13应用程序的目标是 支持一个新的，有意访问和包容性的区域会议，在语言运动控制，以增加 目前的会议。波士顿言语运动控制研讨会（BSMCS）借鉴了高 波士顿大都市区和波士顿周边地区的人口集中， 乘汽车和火车。为了增加有前途的代表性不足的少数民族（URM）研究人员的管道， 在这方面，BSMCS旨在减少这些人的出勤障碍。BSMCS将是低成本 （注册费40美元;学生10美元）和短期（一个完整的会议日，前一天晚上有可选的教程 学员）。BSMCS将为学生和博士后研究人员提供旅行奖励， 统一资源管理系统。它将纳入最佳做法，以便纳入工作父母，例如免费现场托儿服务 和进入哺乳室[1]。最后，BSMCS将提供继续教育单位（CEU）的与会者， 是言语语言病理学家（SLP）。吸引SLP与会者将1）鼓励传播 可以促进临床转化的尖端研究，2）进一步加强新研究人员的管道 在这一领域，通过吸引SLP博士研究。此R13会议补助金提案的主要目的是 要求NIDCD支持培训生旅行奖励，邀请来自外部的演讲者的旅行费用， 波士顿地区，家庭护理提供者费用，会议用品，以及BSMCS 2019期间的海报板租金， 2021年和2023年。波士顿大学（BU）将提供一个平等的匹配NIDCD的贡献，其中每一个 项目.会议注册费和BU提供的额外资金将支付所有额外费用， 会议每年的会议将包括一个为期一天的计划，其中包括5个特邀演讲（一个主题演讲 讲座和其他四个专家研讨会），与该计划的其余部分致力于贡献会谈和 贡献海报会议。此外，每年将有一个实习辅导举行的前一天晚上，充分 研讨会当天，这将是免费的所有学生和博士后研究人员。NIDCD供资 将使BSMCS能够实现可访问性和包容性的目标，促进演讲的研究和教育 运动控制在不同群体的学生，研究人员和临床医生。
