DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application requests funding to support two functions at the annual meeting of the American Auditory Society (AAS). The AAS was founded in 1974 as a multi-disciplinary association whose mission is to foster dissemination of knowledge and exchange of information about hearing and balance among professionals in Otolaryngology, Hearing Science, Audiology, and the Hearing Industry. Since 1999 we have held our own stand-alone conferences. These meetings have been well attended (~200 attendees each year) and represent a unique opportunity to share the latest applied and clinical research in otolaryngology, audiology, and prosthetic development in a small meeting venue. The requested funding for the AAS meeting is for support of a lecture series in translational research and a poster session for mentored doctoral and post doctoral (Otolaryngology resident) research. Both functions were funded by an NIH conference grant for the first time last year, and this meeting was highly successful. The purpose of the translational research lectures is to facilitate the transfer of basis research findings into clinical application. While there are excellent meetings for basic research in these fields, fewer opportunities exist for the presentation of rigorous clinical research and there is no one venue for the integration for both basic and applied research. The purpose of the Mentored Research Poster Session is to promote the future of our disciplines through recognition and mentorship of doctoral students in Audiology and applied research in Otolaryngology. There has been a constant decline in the number of Ph.D. audiology graduates (69% fewer since 1990) and increasingly fewer of those graduates enter academic or research careers. Research by clinician scientists in Otolaryngology has also declined in recent years. We propose a poster session venue designed to showcase doctoral student and resident research and encourage individual interaction with noted scientists and mentors in Audiology, Otolaryngology and Bioengineering. The addition of theses speakers and student poster session will provide a unique opportunity for the integration of basic scientific study to be presented in a format which will encourage its application to clinical practice and which will promote future research in Hearing Science and Audiology.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请要求提供资金，以支持在美国听觉学会（AAS）年会的两个功能。AAS成立于1974年，是一个多学科协会，其使命是促进耳鼻喉科、听力科学、听力学和听力行业专业人员之间关于听力和平衡的知识传播和信息交流。自1999年以来，我们举行了自己的独立会议。这些会议的出席人数众多（每年约200人），代表了一个独特的机会，可以在一个小型会议场所分享耳鼻喉科，听力学和假肢开发的最新应用和临床研究。AAS会议所要求的资金用于支持转化研究的系列讲座和指导博士和博士后（耳鼻喉科住院医师）研究的海报会议。这两项职能去年首次由NIH会议拨款资助，这次会议非常成功。转化研究讲座的目的是促进基础研究成果转化为临床应用。虽然在这些领域有很好的基础研究会议，但介绍严格的临床研究的机会较少，并且没有一个场所可以整合基础和应用研究。指导研究海报会议的目的是通过认可和指导听力学博士生和耳鼻喉科应用研究来促进我们学科的未来。博士人数不断下降听力学毕业生（自1990年以来减少了69%），越来越少的毕业生进入学术或研究生涯。近年来，耳鼻喉科临床科学家的研究也有所下降。我们提出了一个海报会议场地，旨在展示博士生和居民的研究，并鼓励个人与著名的科学家和导师在听力学，耳鼻喉科和生物工程的互动。论文演讲者和学生海报会议的增加将为基础科学研究的整合提供一个独特的机会，以鼓励其应用于临床实践，并促进听力科学和听力学的未来研究。
