20TH ANNUAL MTG-AMERICAN SOCIETY REPRODUCTIVE IMMUNOLOGY

第20届美国生殖免疫学会（ASRI）年会的目的是：1）分享有关生殖免疫学重要新发展的研究，2）促进生殖免疫学各学科基础科学家和临床医生之间的知识交流，3）为对生殖免疫学感兴趣的新科学家提供指导。会议向所有感兴趣的科学家开放，将举行六次全体会议。第一次全体会议题为"生殖免疫学的新概念"，将突出最近的发现，这些发现改变了对允许胎儿同种异体移植物逃避母体免疫系统的机制的理解。第二次全体会议将集中在生殖道的细胞免疫功能，第三次全体会议将致力于生殖微生物学和病毒学和第四次全体会议将集中在参与免疫和生殖系统之间的对话调节分子。第五次全体会议题为"营养免疫学和生殖"，将包括一系列关于免疫功能的营养调节可能对生殖生物学产生影响这一新兴观点的前沿演讲。 全体会议六，题为"临床管理的高危妊娠患者由于免疫问题"，解决了生殖免疫学研究的最终目标，将结果应用于临床环境。第六次会议的特邀发言人都是在与免疫原因相关的不孕症妇女患者的管理临床科学的前沿。美国国立卫生研究院的资金被要求1）财政支持20名研究生，博士后科学家，居民和初级教师谁希望参加会议和2）8名受邀发言人的费用。至关重要的是，学员参加ASRI的第20届年会，了解生殖免疫学的最新工作，满足人们谁是做生殖免疫学的前沿研究，并从阅读生殖免疫学家对他们的科学努力得到关键的评价和反馈。要求为发言者提供差旅费支助，因为作为一个小社会，ASRI依赖赞助机构为应邀参加年会的发言者提供支助。

The purpose of the 20th Annual Meeting of the American Society for Reproductive Immunology (ASRI) is to l) share research concerning important new developments in reproductive immunology, 2) promote intellectual exchange between basic scientists and clinicians in the various disciplines of reproductive immunology and 3) provide mentorship for new scientists interested in reproductive immunology. The meeting, which is open to all interested scientists, will be organized around six plenary sessions. Plenary Session I, entitled "New Concepts in Reproductive Immunology", will highlight recent discoveries that have changed the understanding of mechanisms allowing the fetal allograft to elude the maternal immune system.. Plenary Session II will focus on cellular immune function in the reproductive tract, Plenary Session III will be devoted to reproductive microbiology and virology and Plenary Session IV will focus on regulatory molecules involved in the dialogue between the immune and reproductive systems. Plenary Session V is entitled "Nutritional Immunology and Reproduction" and will consist of a series of cutting-edge presentations on an emerging idea that nutritional regulation of immune function can have an impact on reproductive biology. Plenary session VI, entitled "Clinical Management of Patients with High-Risk Pregnancies Due to Immunological Problems", addresses the ultimate goal of research in reproductive immunology to apply results to he clinical setting. Invited speakers for session VI are in the forefront of clinical science related to management of women patients with infertility associated with immunological causes. Funds from NIH are being requested for 1) financial support for 20 graduate students, postdoctoral scientists, residents and junior faculty who wish to attend the meeting and 2) expenses for 8 invited speakers. It is critical that trainees attend the 20th Annual Meeting of the ASRI to learn about the most recent work in reproductive immunology, meet people who are doing cutting-edge research in reproductive immunology, and to get critical appraisal and feedback regarding their scientific efforts from reading reproductive immunologists. Travel support for speakers is requested since, as a small society, the ASRI is dependent upon sponsoring agencies to provide support for invited speakers at the annual meeting.
