生命科学研究办公室(LSRD) 美国实验生物学学会(FASEB)建议 主办一次研讨会会议，讨论 叶酸和维生素B12在人体内的作用 神经递质代谢与退行性神经病学 与年龄相关的变化。讨论主题还包括 研究与年龄相关的神经变化的方法， 神经递质代谢、叶酸和维生素B12 老年人的营养状况。活跃在地球上的科学家 营养学、神经学、老年学、临床医学、 流行病学、生理学、细胞生物学和生物化学 邀请参加。研讨会的表格将包括 特邀演讲人就《联合国宪章》的现状作介绍性发言 理解和知识中的差距，随后是与 关于选定专题的五个工作组，每个工作组有一次讨论 领导人和报告员，讨论研究建议 方法和优先事项。会议的每个参与者都将 参加其中两次研讨会，以鼓励 代表各学科的信息和观点。在 最后一次会议，所有参与者将重新开会，个人 工作组将报告他们的建议。这些 建议，加上受邀的会谈摘要 演讲者，将编写一份公开提供的报告 研修班。

The Life Sciences Research Office (LSRD) of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) proposes to sponsor a workshop meeting to discuss the opportunities for research on "The Role of Folate and Vitamin B12 in Neurotransmitter Metabolism and Degenerative Neurologic Changes Associated with Age." Discussion topics will also include approaches to the study of age-related neurological changes, neurotransmitter metabolism, and the folate and vitamin B12 nutritional status of the elderly. Scientists active in the disciplines of nutrition, neurology, gerontology, clinical medicine, epidemiology, physiology, cell biology, and biochemistry will be invited to participate. The form at of the workshop will include introductory talks by invited speakers on the current status of understanding and gaps in knowledge, followed by sessions with five working groups on selected topics, each with a discussion leader and rapporteur, to discuss recommendations on research approaches and priorities. Each participant in the meeting will attend two of the workshop sessions to encourage the exchange of information and views across the disciplines represented. At the final session, all participants will reconvene and the individual working groups will report their recommendations. These recommendations, plus summaries of the talks by invited speakers, will be prepared as a publicly available report of the workshop.
