项目摘要

Summary: The American Society for Intercellular Communication (ASIC) was created by principal investigators from the United States and Canada with a goal of creating a home for research encompassing emerging mediators and pathways of intercellular communication (IC) beyond the scope of the existing societies. Organizers have focused on regular yearly meetings with interest in extracellular vesicles, particles, and RNA (EV/EP/ExRNA) and other complex pathways of molecular exchange. We believe that having ASIC as a reputable organization in North America is significant since it will provide an intellectual home for young scientists who are interested in basic science and bench to bedside related EV and non-EV research. The location of the meeting (Bolger Center; Potomac, MD) provides a platform that allows direct communication between PIs and program officers from government agencies with interest in EV research including NIH, NIST, FDA, and NSF. The meeting and the Society are innovative in many ways including that the meeting topics cover a broad range of IC processes far beyond the focus of existing societies that have been largely dominated by exosome-related research. In contrast, ASIC opens the door for studies on all supramolecular pathways of communications including EV/EP/ExRNAs, intercellular synapses, nano- and microtubes and other mechanisms. In addition, the relatively low cost of the meeting, which includes registrations, meals, and hotel, enables more students, postdocs, and junior faculty to attend. In order to further promote the inclusion of Under Represented Minorities (URM) and reduce the impact of gender or other bias, ASIC has formed the Diversity and Inclusion ASIC Committee (DIAC) under the leadership of Dr. Julie Saugstad. Along these lines our Aims focus on bringing together investigators from diverse basic science and clinical fields to discuss and advance understanding of the multifactorial impact of EV/EP/ExRNA in diagnostics, treatments, and a basic understanding of the biogenesis of normal vs. diseases states; engage young new investigators in the field of EV/EP/ExRNA and their advancement in becoming independent successful colleagues, and bring together interested parties to discuss relevant key significant topics regarding IC, and disseminate information presented at the conference to the scientific community-at-large as well as to health care providers and the general public.

概括：美国细胞间沟通学会（ASIC）是由首席研究人员创建的来自美国和加拿大的目标，目的是为研究涵盖新兴的研究超出现有社会范围的细胞间交流（IC）的调解人和途径。组织者专注于对细胞外囊泡，颗粒和 RNA（EV/EP/EXRNA）和其他分子交换的复杂途径。我们相信有 ASIC作为北美著名的组织非常重要，因为它将提供知识分子对于那些对基础科学感兴趣的年轻科学家和与床边相关的EV和非EV感兴趣的科学家研究。会议的位置（Bolger Center； MD Potomac）提供了一个允许的平台 PIS与来自政府机构有兴趣的政府机构之间的直接沟通包括NIH，NIST，FDA和NSF在内的研究。会议和社会在许多方面都是创新的包括会议主题涵盖了广泛的IC过程，远远超出了现有的重点与外泌体相关的研究主要主导的社会。相反，Asic打开门对于所有通信的超分子途径的研究，包括EV/EP/EXRNA，细胞间突触，纳米和微管以及其他机制。此外，会议的成本相对较低，其中包括注册，餐和酒店，使更多的学生，博士后和初级教师出席。为了进一步促进代表少数族裔（URM）的包容性并减少性别或其他偏见的影响，ASIC成立了多样性和包容性ASIC委员会（DIAC）在朱莉·索格斯塔（Julie Saugstad）博士的领导下。沿着这些界限，我们的目标专注于团结来自不同基础科学和临床领域的研究人员讨论和提高对 EV/EP/EXRNA在诊断，治疗方法中的多因素影响以及对正常疾病状态的生物发生；参与EV/EP/EXRNA领域的年轻新调查员以及他们在成为独立成功的同事方面的进步，并使感兴趣各方讨论有关IC的相关关键重要主题，并传播介绍的信息大会的科学社区以及医疗保健提供者和一般的会议民众。
