DESCRIPTION (provided by the applicant): This is an application for partial funding of a FASEB Summer Research Conference on "Neural Mechanisms in Cardiovascular Regulation" to take place in Snowmass, Colorado on July 20-25, 2001. The conference will be the 8th in a series of FASEB Conferences held once every 2-3 years on this topic. Neural mechanisms play a major role in regulation of arterial pressure, modulation of cardiac and renal function, and occurrence of syncope, cardiac arrhythmias, and sudden death in pathological states. The conference will be of interest to both basic scientists interested in fundamental neural mechanisms, integrative physiologists, and clinicians interested in mechanisms of cardiovascular dysregulation in disease. The goal of the conference is to bring together investigators and trainees from a variety of scientific areas to discuss important aspects of neurocardiovascular control in an informal setting. The unique format and informal setting of the FASEB Summer Research Conference facilitates interactions between various disciplines and between trainees and established investigators. Specific objectives are to: 1) provide state-of-the-art overviews of important areas of neurocardiovascular regulation by recognized experts and promising young investigators; 2) identify new experimental approaches and hypotheses for future research; and 3) involve a large number of trainees and young investigators in the conference. Approximately 160 conference attendees will be selected from interested applicants. The conference will include 9 plenary sessions consisting of 4 presentations each, extended discussion sessions, and poster presentations. The plenary sessions include: 1) Mechanisms of sensory transduction in the cardiovascular system; 2) Neurotransmitters and techniques in the brainstem; 3) Exciting the RVLM: what drives the activity of RVLM vasomotor neurons? 4) Contributions by the brain in hypertension; 5) Forebrain mechanisms and neurohumoral control; 6) Central control of blood pressure and fluid homeostasis: the functional genomics era; 7) Regulation of circulation by higher brain centers; 8) Origins of cardiovascular variability, and its functional implications; and 9) Mechanisms of activation, of the sympathetic nervous system in aging, obesity and heart failure. The majority of invited speakers have already agreed to participate and participation of young investigators will be encouraged. Time will be allotted for informal discussions and social interaction. Scientists from the United States and other countries, young investigations and women are well-represented in the program.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是一份关于“心血管调节中的神经机制”的FASEB夏季研究会议的部分资助申请，该会议将于2001年7月20日至25日在科罗拉多的斯诺马斯举行。该会议将是FASEB系列会议中的第8次，每2-3年举行一次。神经机制在动脉压的调节、心肾功能的调节以及晕厥、心律失常和病理状态下猝死的发生中起主要作用。会议将是感兴趣的基础科学家感兴趣的基本神经机制，综合生理学家，和临床医生感兴趣的心血管疾病失调的机制。会议的目标是汇集来自各种科学领域的研究人员和学员，在非正式环境中讨论神经心血管控制的重要方面。FASEB夏季研究会议的独特形式和非正式环境促进了各个学科之间以及学员和既定研究人员之间的互动。具体目标是：1）由公认的专家和有前途的年轻研究人员提供神经心血管调节重要领域的最新概述; 2）为未来的研究确定新的实验方法和假设; 3）在会议中涉及大量的学员和年轻研究人员。大约160名与会者将从感兴趣的申请人中选出。会议将包括9个全体会议，每个会议包括4个演讲，扩展讨论会和海报展示。全体会议包括：1）心血管系统中感觉传导的机制; 2）脑干中的神经递质和技术; 3）兴奋RVLM：是什么驱动RVLM血管神经元的活动？4)脑在高血压中的作用; 5）前脑机制和神经体液控制; 6）血压和液体稳态的中枢控制：功能基因组学时代; 7）高级脑中心对循环的调节; 8）心血管变异的起源及其功能意义; 9）衰老、肥胖和心力衰竭中交感神经系统的激活机制。大多数应邀发言者已经同意参加，并将鼓励年轻调查人员参加。将分配时间进行非正式讨论和社交互动。来自美国和其他国家的科学家、年轻的研究人员和妇女在该方案中占有很大比例。
