A New Annual Alcohol Research Forum: Guze Symposium

为了纪念已故的塞缪尔·B·古泽医学博士，他对酒精研究的许多贡献构成了今天酒精领域正在进行的研究的基础，请求提供5年的支持，以组织和主办一次名为古泽研讨会的年度研讨会。密苏里州酒精中毒研究中心(MARC.研讨会将在圣路易斯举行，将包括酒精领域和相关学科的杰出研究人员(通常是5到6名发言者)以及有前途的初级调查人员的正式演讲。这种形式还包括全天连续举行的海报查看会议，其中将展示酒精研究及其姊妹学科的调查人员正在进行的当前研究和分析。口头发言的摘要(将鼓励发言者提供幻灯片演示文稿以张贴在网站上)以及海报的电子版将张贴在MARC网站上，供其他人普遍查阅。MARC调查人员有组织这样一次专题讨论会的经验，2001年4月成功地举办了第一次古泽专题讨论会，早些时候在哥伦比亚墨尔本大学举行了一次特别会议。每一年支持第二次古泽专题讨论会的细节，包括确定每届会议的特邀发言者及其针对研究人员和广大从业人员的信件，在会议上，酒精研究和相关学科的主要国家调查人员和有前途的地方初级调查人员将介绍他们的最新发现，并相互讨论和辩论。

Support is requested for 5 years to organize and host an annual symposium, entitled the Guze symposium in honor of the late Samuel B. Guze, M.D., whose many contributions to alcohol research have formed the basis of ongoing studies in the alcohol field today. The lead organization for the planning and conduct of this symposium is the Missouri Alcoholism Research Center (MARC. The symposium will take place in St. Louis, and will include formal addresses by distinguished researchers (typically 5 or 6 speakers) in the alcohol field and related disciplines, as well as promising junior investigators. The format also includes a poster viewing session held by continuously throughout the day, which will feature current research and analyses being conducted by investigators in alcohol research and its sister disciplines. Summaries of the oral presentations, (speakers will be encouraged to provide slide presentations for posting on the web site), as well as electronic versions of the posters, will be posted on the MARC web site, for general access by others. The MARC investigators have prior experience in organizing such a symposium, with the successful conduct of the First Guze Symposium in April 2001, and an earlier special conference at the University of MO, Columbia. Details about the Second Guze Symposium for each year of support, including identification of invited speakers for each session and their letters aimed at both researchers and a broad group of practitioners, in which leading national investigators and promising local junior investigators in alcohol research and related disciplines will present their latest findings and discuss and debate these with each other and conference attendees.
