DESCRIPTION (adapted from the application): This is an application for funds to support a scientific meeting of the International Network on Healthy Life Expectancy (KEVES). The meeting will take place in March 2000 at the USC, three days before the annual meetings of the Population Association of America (PAA) in Los Angeles. This will be the twelfth meeting, the third in the United States, of a group of international scientists devoted to the development of methods and data for producing summary measures of health. The goal is to better understand the life cycle and population composition implications of current and prospective trends in mortality and morbidity. The meeting theme is Linking Health Expectancy to Policy and Science. This meeting will be especially important for the United States because it will be the first meeting attended by representatives of U.S. Government agencies who are setting goals for Summary Measures of Health Expectancy 2010. It will be the first meeting to include significant input from the developers of DALYS, an alternative approach to measuring the burden of ill health associated with disease; and it will be the first meeting to incorporate sessions on biodemography, which are crucial to considering the future of mortality and morbidity trends among the older population. It is currently the last scheduled meeting of this group and will be used to clarify the potential of current methods and data for meeting research and policy needs. The principal investigator (PI) for this application is Dr. Eileen Crimmins from the Andrus Gerontology Center at the USC, a member of the central organizing committee of EVES. The organizing committee for this meeting includes, in addition to Dr. Crimmins, Dr. Olshansky from the University of Chicago (UC); Dr. George Meyers from Duke University (DU); Dr. Mark Hayward from the Pennsylvania State University (PSU); Dr. Colin Mathers from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare in Canberra, Australia; Dr. Jean Marie Robine from INSERM in France; and Dr. Carol Jagger from England.

描述（改编自应用程序）：这是一个资金申请，以支持国际健康预期寿命网络（KEVES）的科学会议。 会议将于2000年3月在南加州大学举行，比在洛杉矶举行的美国人口协会年会提前三天。 这将是一个国际科学家小组的第十二次会议，也是在美国举行的第三次会议，该小组致力于制定用于制作健康简要衡量标准的方法和数据。 目标是更好地了解死亡率和发病率的当前和未来趋势对生命周期和人口组成的影响。 会议的主题是将健康预期与政策和科学联系起来。 这次会议对美国特别重要，因为这将是美国政府机构代表参加的第一次会议，他们正在为2010年健康预期综合衡量标准制定目标。 这将是第一次纳入“老年人健康状况监测系统”开发者的重要投入的会议，“老年人健康状况监测系统”是衡量与疾病有关的健康状况不佳负担的一种替代办法;这将是第一次纳入生物人口学会议的会议，生物人口学对审议老年人口死亡率和发病率趋势的未来至关重要。 这是该小组目前排定的最后一次会议，将用来澄清现有方法和数据在满足研究和政策需要方面的潜力。 本申请的主要研究者（PI）是来自南加州大学安德罗斯老年学中心的Eileen Rummins博士，他是EVES中央组织委员会的成员。 这次会议的组织委员会除Dr. Rummins外，还包括来自芝加哥大学的Olshansky博士、来自杜克大学的乔治Meyers博士、来自宾夕法尼亚州立大学的Mark海沃德博士、来自澳大利亚堪培拉的澳大利亚卫生和福利研究所的Colin Mathers博士、来自法国卫生和福利研究所的Jean玛丽Robine博士、来自澳大利亚卫生和福利研究所的Dr.还有来自英国的卡罗尔·贾格尔博士
