1997 GORDON CONFERENCE ON BIOENERGETICS

戈登生物能量学研究会议每两次举行一次 几年来，与欧洲生物能量学会议交替举行 (EBEC)。戈登会议代表着原则会议 在美国举行，聚集了致力于 能量转导的基本机制及其功能 在整个细胞中都会发生功能障碍。在过去的几年里，有很多新的 参与的复合膜蛋白的结构信息 氧化磷酸化已经成为可能，甚至更多 承诺即将召开这次会议，定于1997年7月举行。 在膜蛋白方面，这次会议将提供新的和 精细的结构信息，在任何其他研究领域都是无与伦比的。 会议将突出这些新的结构和新的 他们提供的机械洞察力。也有越来越多的 对线粒体整体功能和功能障碍的认识 细胞，在程序性细胞死亡、衰老和疾病中。最新结果 而在这些领域带来重大进步的新技术将 呈现在一个将提供重要信息的环境中 研究基本机构的研究人员和研究人员之间的交流 那些试图将基础知识与复杂的细胞联系起来的人 回应。能量传递中的关键问题是，离子如何 跨膜移动，将在会议上讨论 水在质子运动中的作用和其他离子的作用 有相关类比的运输过程和最近的 预付款。生物能量学戈登会议吸引了顶尖人才 来自世界各地的研究人员，通常约有30%-50%是外国人 参与者。尽管如此，作为一个美国会议，我们积极 招募和指定美国年轻科学家的名额，以确保他们的 接触到该领域最优秀的科学家，并加强他们的 对这一快速发展的领域的研究热情及其广泛的 对健康和疾病的影响。这份申请是为了获得资金 支持优秀调查人员、初级调查人员和 高级，通过提供注册、现场费用或差旅费用，如 需要，20个人，每人300美元。

The Gordon Research Conference on Bioenergetics is held every two years, alternating with the European Bioenergetics Conference (EBEC). The Gordon Conference represents the principle meeting held in the United States that brings together researchers working on the basic mechanism of energy transduction and its function and disfunction in whole cells. In the last few years a wealth of new structural information on the complex membrane proteins involved in oxidative phosphorylation has become available, and even more promises to be forthcoming for this meeting, schedule for July 1997. In terms of membrane proteins, this conference will provide new and refined structural information, unmatched in any other research area. The conference will highlight these new structures and the new mechanistic insights that they provide. There is also increasing understanding of the function and disfunction of mitochondria in whole cells, in programmed cell death, aging and disease. The latest results and novel technology that has led to major advances in these areas will be presented in an environment which will provide important communication between researchers studying basic mechanism and those attempting to relate fundamental knowledge to complex cellular responses. The key question in energy transduction, how ions are moved across membranes, will be addressed in sessions dealing with the role of water in proton movement and the function of other ion transport processes where there are relevant analogies and recent advances. The Bioenergetics Gorden Conference attracts the top researchers from all over the world, with usually about 30-50% foreign participants. Nevertheless, as a United States conference, we actively recruit and earmark slots for young American scientists to ensure their exposure to the best scientists in the field and reinforce their enthusiasm for research in this rapidly progressing area with its broad implication for health and disease. This application is for funds to support the participation of outstanding investigators, junior and senior, by providing registration, on-site expenses or travel expenses, as needed, for 20 individuals at $300 each.
