DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Spring Brain Conference (SBC) was first organized in late 1989 to foster interdisciplinary communication among scientists studying different aspects of brain function in a format that stimulates significant interaction and discussion. The objective of the conference is to bring together top neuroscientists with varied backgrounds, interests and approaches expressly to promote the development of new strategies to investigate and stimulate the development of new therapeutic approaches to disorders of the CNS. SBC is held in Sedona, Arizona in mid March. The dates for the next conference are March 10-13, 2004. In this application support is requested for meetings in 2004 - 2008. In 2004, the conference will consist of 8-10 plenary scientific sessions each organized around a theme or topic. Sessions are chosen on a competitive basis and are given in 2-4 oral presentations by recognized experts followed by open discussion. We request support for 10 established scientists and 5 young investigators participating in 5 sessions. Most of these are co-organized with program personnel from the NIH. For 2004, the 4 different institutes participating are: NINDS -2 (primary), NIA, NICHD, NIDA, 1 each (secondary). Four plenary lecturers will be invited to present expert overviews on topics of broad interest. We request support for one plenary lecturer. There will be 1-2 sessions, emphasizing posters presented by young investigators/trainees/graduate students including women and underrepresented minority trainees. We request support for 1 plenary lecturer, 10 established scientists as speakers, 5 young investigators as speakers and 8 trainees/graduate students to attend. Over 75% of the budget is to support travel of these participants. An afternoon workshop has been organized by and will be conducted by NIH personnel attending the meeting on programs and funding strategies principally for the young scientists and trainees. Additional funds are requested to partially defray administrative costs of organizing and conducting the conference and conducting a follow-up survey. Confirmed topics for 5 of the sessions are: Stroke Clinical Trials, Genetic Approaches to Neurological Diseases, Images of Addiction, Dyslexia and Brain and Successful and Unsuccessful Aging.

描述（由申请人提供）： 春季脑会议（Spring Brain Conference，SBC）于1989年底首次举办，旨在促进研究大脑功能不同方面的科学家之间的跨学科交流，以促进重要的互动和讨论。会议的目的是汇集具有不同背景，兴趣和方法的顶级神经科学家，明确促进新策略的开发，以研究和刺激CNS疾病新治疗方法的开发。SBC于3月中旬在亚利桑那州塞多纳举行。下一次会议的日期是2004年3月10日至13日。本申请要求为2004 - 2008年的会议提供支助。2004年，会议将包括8-10次全体科学会议，每次会议围绕一个主题或专题组织。会议是在竞争的基础上选择的，由公认的专家进行2-4次口头陈述，然后进行公开讨论。我们请求支持10名知名科学家和5名年轻研究人员参加5次会议。其中大部分是与NIH的项目人员共同组织的。2004年，参与的4个不同机构是：NINDS-2（小学）、NIA、NICHD、NIDA，各1所（中学）。将邀请四名全体讲师就广泛感兴趣的专题提出专家概述。我们请求为一名全体讲师提供支助。将举办1-2次会议，重点是由年轻调查员/受训人员/研究生（包括妇女和代表性不足的少数族裔受训人员）展示海报。我们请求支持1名全体讲师，10名知名科学家作为演讲者，5名年轻研究人员作为演讲者和8名受训人员/研究生参加。超过75%的预算用于支持这些与会者的旅行。出席会议的国家卫生研究院工作人员组织并将主持一个下午的讲习班，讨论主要为青年科学家和受训人员制定的方案和资助战略。请求提供额外资金，以支付组织和举行会议以及进行后续调查的部分行政费用。其中5个会议的确认主题是：中风临床试验，神经系统疾病的遗传方法，成瘾的图像，诵读困难和大脑以及成功和不成功的衰老。
