Project Summary / Abstract The Rocky Mountain Virology Association (RMVA) will hold its 22nd annual meeting September 30th-October 2nd, 2022. The meeting brings together regional and national investigators in virology and prion biology for a 3- day retreat-style conference with extensive interaction and collaboration. The original meeting was organized by investigators in Colorado and Wyoming interested in free and open exchange of scientific data and ideas in virology in a venue that promotes collaboration among students, post-docs and faculty. Specifically, our annual meeting at the Mountain Campus of Colorado State University encourages young scientists to present their research and receive feedback from established scientists. The goals are promotion of scientific interactions and training. A major benefit of participation has been the novel collaborations that arise between scientists in different disciplines. Topics discussed include medical virology (vaccines, epidemiology, viral zoonoses), arthropod-borne diseases (RNA viruses, RNA metabolism, viral vectors and vector biology), host defenses (viral immunology and pathogenesis), prion biology, cancer biology and systems biology. Special sessions vaccine development, pandemic viruses, virus discovery and the global impact of viral diseases have been common features. The 2021 meeting had a retrospective on the COVID-19 pandemic with discussions on successful approaches and establishment of systems for future challenges. The next meeting will feature discussions on noroviruses, coronaviruses, innate immune evasion by viruses, virus control of host gene expression, zoonotic transmission and science communication. The meeting offers excellent collaborative opportunities. Attendees include scientists from Colorado State University, The University of Colorado, the University of Wyoming, the University of Northern Colorado, the Centers for Disease Control (Fort Collins) and the Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, regional biotech companies, and universities in Iowa, Idaho, Nebraska, Kansas, Montana, New Mexico and Utah. The RMVA was incorporated in 2010 as an educational charity (501(c)(3)). Our volunteer board of directors is charged with encouraging student and junior faculty involvement by minimizing costs as we encourage women and minorities to participate in all stages of program presentation and development. Our attendance is limited to a maximum of 124 individuals, and the growth of the meeting to capacity illustrates the desire of regional scientists to participate. Funds for this proposal are requested to provide minority grants and childcare, reduced registration fees for graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and early-stage investigators, and for travel and housing for seven invited speakers. Registration fees, charitable contributions, and sponsorships cover the base costs for the meeting. The RMVA has been a source of communication and collaboration in the Rocky Mountain region, with outreach across the nation, for twenty- one years, and NIAID support has expanded interest in this meeting to national and international levels.

项目总结/摘要 落基山病毒学协会（RMVA）将于9月30日至10月举行第22届年会 第二，2022年。该会议汇集了病毒学和朊病毒生物学的区域和国家研究人员， 为期一天的务虚会式会议，广泛的互动和协作。最初的会议是由 科罗拉多和怀俄明州的研究人员对自由和公开交换科学数据和想法感兴趣， 在一个促进学生，博士后和教师之间的合作的场所病毒学。具体来说，我们的年度 在科罗拉多州立大学的山区校园举行的会议鼓励年轻科学家展示他们的 研究并从已建立的科学家那里获得反馈。目标是促进科学互动 和培训及其有效参与的一个主要好处是科学家之间出现了新的合作， 不同的学科。讨论的主题包括医学病毒学（疫苗，流行病学，病毒性人畜共患病）， 节肢动物传播的疾病（RNA病毒，RNA代谢，病毒载体和载体生物学），宿主防御（病毒 免疫学和发病机理）、朊病毒生物学、癌症生物学和系统生物学。特别会议疫苗 发展、大流行病毒、病毒发现和病毒性疾病的全球影响是常见的 功能. 2021年会议回顾了2019冠状病毒病疫情，并讨论了成功的 应对未来挑战的方法和制度的建立。下一次会议将讨论 诺如病毒、冠状病毒、病毒的先天免疫逃避、病毒控制宿主基因表达、人畜共患病 传播和科学传播。会议提供了极好的合作机会。与会者 包括来自科罗拉多州立大学、科罗拉多大学、怀俄明州大学、 北方科罗拉多大学、疾病控制中心（柯林斯堡）和农业部 动植物卫生检验局，地区生物技术公司，以及爱荷华州，爱达荷州的大学， 内布拉斯加，堪萨斯，蒙大拿，新墨西哥州和犹他州。RMVA成立于2010年，是一个教育机构。 慈善（501（c）（3））。我们的志愿者董事会负责鼓励学生和初级教师 我们鼓励妇女和少数民族参与项目的各个阶段， 呈现和发展。我们的出席人数限制在最多124人， 会议的能力表明了区域科学家参与的愿望。这项建议的资金是 要求提供少数民族赠款和儿童保育，降低研究生、博士后的注册费 研究员和早期调查员的旅费和7名应邀发言者的旅费和住宿费。注册费， 慈善捐款和奖学金支付会议的基本费用。RMVA是一个来源， 在落基山脉地区的沟通和合作，与全国各地的推广，为20- 一年来，NIAID的支持扩大了对这次会议的兴趣，国家和国际层面。
