DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) Conference support: This application is for support of part of a 3 day International workshop on choroid plexus research. The cerebral choroid plexuses (CP) are the major sites of the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier and their importance in brain health and disease are becoming increasingly recognized as new data emerges on the role of the choroid plexus in neuroprotection, acting as a barrier to systemic toxics, synthesizing proteins and hormones essential to brain health, and participating in endocrine and immunological function activity in the central nervous system throughout the lifespan. The home disciplines of researchers active in the field are diverse, and include those in toxicology, pharmacology, endocrinology, physiology and molecular biology. The primary goal of this workshop is to act as a focus for those groups specifically activity in CP research, who would not otherwise have a natural meeting "home." This workshop builds upon the first meeting held in France, and the continuing dissemination of CP research via the CP website which developed from that meeting. The second international workshop on choroid plexus research will be held at King's College London in the United Kingdom from 12th- 14th April 2003. The participants are drawn widely from international research on CP, and given the emerging nature of the topic, we aim to include all those interested in or actively pursing CP research including established researchers, experienced groups who are new to this field, and encourage young researchers undertaking doctoral and postdoctoral studies. The board topic to be covered are: 1) New insight into Choroid plexus structure and CSF section; 2) The role of the choroid plexus in brain health and disease; 3) Choroid plexus function in brain protection; 4) Choroid Plexus as a route for compounding transport and access to brain.

描述（由申请人提供） 会议支持：此申请用于支持为期 3 天的脉络丛研究国际研讨会的一部分。 脑脉络丛 (CP) 是血脑脊液屏障的主要部位，随着关于脉络丛在神经保护中的作用的新数据的出现，其在大脑健康和疾病中的重要性日益得到认识，脉络丛作为全身毒物的屏障，合成对大脑健康至关重要的蛋白质和激素，并参与中枢神经系统的内分泌和免疫功能活动。 寿命。 活跃在该领域的研究人员的所属学科多种多样，包括毒理学、药理学、内分泌学、生理学和分子生物学。 本次研讨会的主要目标是成为那些专门从事 CP 研究活动的团体的焦点，否则他们将没有一个自然的会议“家”。 本次研讨会以在法国举行的第一次会议为基础，并通过该会议开发的 CP 网站持续传播 CP 研究。 第二届脉络丛研究国际研讨会将于2003年4月12日至14日在英国伦敦国王学院举行。 参与者广泛来自国际上关于CP的研究，考虑到该主题的新兴性质，我们的目标是包括所有对CP研究感兴趣或积极从事CP研究的人，包括知名研究人员、经验丰富的新进入该领域的群体，并鼓励年轻研究人员进行博士和博士后研究。 董事会讨论的主题是： 1）对脉络丛结构和脑脊液切片的新认识； 2）脉络丛在大脑健康和疾病中的作用； 3）脉络丛的脑保护作用； 4) 脉络丛作为复合运输和进入大脑的途径。
