DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application is for support of the meeting "The Laboratory Mouse in Vision Research" to be held at The Jackson Laboratory (TJL) in Bar Harbor, Maine on October 14-16, 2004. The function of the meeting is to provide an interactive forum for investigators and students working in eye research using the laboratory mouse as a genetic model system. The laboratory mouse is widely considered the premiere experimental organism for genetic studies that have implications, often direct, for human eye biology and disease. Sessions will include: 1) Photoreceptors/transduction, 2) Inner retinal processing and 3) Central vision systems. The intent of this meeting is to bring students and established investigators with varying expertise and experience together to discuss their research findings, identify areas of common research interest and develop future directions. Invited speakers will present background, raise important scientific questions or discuss their own work in topic areas of vision research. These talks will often be followed by several presentations of 15-20 minutes each, to be chosen primarily from submitted abstracts. These presentations will be selected to illustrate and examine in more detail principles developed in the overviews. There will be one poster session and 9 workshops on topics including: 1) Clinical assessment, 2) Histological assessment, 3) Electrophysiology, 4) Genetic manipulation, 5) Genetic mapping/modifiers, 6) Mouse Mutant Resources, 7) Microarray Experiment Design and Analysis, 8) Proteomics and 9) Grant writing. Postdoctoral and graduate students are encouraged to attend, and funds for student travel will be made available to make the meeting more accessible both to students and under-represented minorities. Due to its relatively small size and interactive format, this meeting represents a unique and rare opportunity for established investigators and students to interact with speakers and other experts that we expect to attend.

描述（由申请人提供）：此申请是为了支持2004年10月14日至16日在缅因州巴港的杰克逊实验室（TJL）举行的“视觉研究实验室鼠标”。会议的功能是为研究人员和研究人员提供互动论坛，并使用实验室鼠标作为遗传模型系统的眼睛研究工作。实验室小鼠被广泛认为是对人眼生物学和疾病具有影响（通常是直接的）的遗传研究的首要实验生物。会议将包括：1）感光器/转导，2）内部视网膜处理和3）中央视力系统。这次会议的目的是为学生和成熟的研究人员带来不同的专业知识和经验，以讨论他们的研究发现，确定共同研究的领域并发展未来的方向。受邀的演讲者将展示背景，提出重要的科学问题或讨论他们在主题研究领域的工作。这些谈判通常会随后进行几次15-20分钟的演讲，主要是从提交的摘要中选择的。将选择这些演示文稿以更详细地说明和检查概述中开发的原则。将有一个海报会议和9个关于主题的研讨会，包括：1）临床评估，2）组织学评估，3）电生理学，4）遗传操作，5）遗传学映射/修饰符，6）小鼠突变资源，7）微阵列实验和分析，8）蛋白质组学和9）授予写作。鼓励博士后和研究生参加，学生旅行的资金将可以使会议更容易被学生和代表性不足的少数民族访问。由于其规模相对较小和互动格式，这次会议为成熟的调查人员和学生与我们希望参加的演讲者和其他专家互动的独特且难得的机会。
