DESCRIPTION: (adapted from application abstract) Since its genesis in 1972, the Gordon Conference on Microbial Toxins and Pathogenesis has been a primary source of information gathering and exchange for scientists in the field of microbial pathogenesis. The phenomenal advances over the last decade in understanding the mode of action of known toxins at the molecular level, the identification of common and novel virulence determinants in a variety of bacterial pathogens, and the application of new molecular, cellular, and immunological tools to address basic questions of how microbes cause disease have moved this field into the forefront of modern biology. The 1998 Conference will include 8 plenary sessions on the following topics: 1) In vivo apoptosis; 2) technology; 3) regulation of gene expression; 4) microbe-host signaling; 5) new toxins/mechanisms; 6) genomics; 7) Structural biology of toxins/virulence factors; 8) secretion of toxins/virulence factors. An additional 9th session is planned but the topic and speakers have not been decided at the time of this grant submission. This ninth session will provide the flexibility to schedule the very latest advances for the meeting so as not to "lock into" a scientific program that is out-of-date by the time the meeting actually occurs. Speakers for these sessions have been chosen to provide a mixture of senior investigators and junior investigators who may not have previously presented at a Gordon Conference. Poster sessions will supplement the plenary sessions and there will be ample opportunity for informal discussion among participants.

描述：（改编自应用摘要）自1972年诞生以来， 戈登微生物毒素和发病机制会议是一个 科学家收集和交流信息的主要来源 微生物发病机理领域。 与过去相比， 十年来，在分子水平上了解已知毒素的作用方式 水平，鉴定常见的和新的毒力决定因素， 各种细菌病原体，以及新分子的应用， 细胞和免疫学工具来解决微生物如何 已经将这一领域推向了现代生物学的前沿。 1998年会议将包括关于下列专题的8次全体会议： 1)体内细胞凋亡; 2）技术; 3）基因表达调控; 4） 微生物-宿主信号传导; 5）新毒素/机制; 6）基因组学; 7）结构 毒素/毒力因子生物学; 8）毒素分泌/毒力 因素 第九届会议计划举行，但主题和发言人 尚未决定在此赠款提交时。 这第九 会议将提供灵活性，以安排最新的进展 为了会议，以免“锁定”一个科学计划， 在会议实际召开时已经过时。 扬声器为这些 会议的选择是为了提供高级研究人员和 初级调查员，他们以前可能没有在戈登 会议 海报会议将作为全体会议的补充， 将为与会者提供充分的非正式讨论机会。
