DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The cell is extremely crowded. As a result, much of the water inside the cell is in close proximity of macromolecular surfaces. Proximity is known to alter water's physical chemical behavior. The central question is the manner in which this altered behavior influences the behavior of local ions and macromolecules and attendant biological processes. Although there has been much conjecture on this subject, the issue remains controversial and unresolved. A Gordon Conference (GRC) has been set up to explore these issues in depth in an open, interdisciplinary setting. The meeting will be co-chaired by Gerald Pollack (University of Washington) and Chaim Frenkel (Rutgers University), and will be held at Mt. Holyoke College on June 6 - 11, 2004. Seed support has already been granted by the GRC, by the University of Washington and by Rutgers University. Because the subject of water is central to behavior of all biological systems, support from the NIH is being requested to conduct this meeting.

描述（由申请人提供）：牢房非常拥挤。因此，细胞内的大部分水都非常接近大分子表面。众所周知，邻近会改变水的物理化学行为。中心问题是这种改变的行为影响局部离子和大分子行为以及伴随的生物过程的方式。尽管在这个问题上有很多猜测，但这个问题仍然存在争议，没有得到解决。一个戈登会议（GRC）已经成立，深入探讨这些问题在一个开放的，跨学科的设置。会议将由Gerald Pollack（华盛顿大学）和Chaim Frenkel（罗格斯大学）共同主持，并将在Mt. 2004年6月6日至11日，霍利奥克学院。种子支持已经得到了GRC、华盛顿大学和罗格斯大学的支持。由于水的主题是所有生物系统行为的核心，因此需要NIH的支持来举办这次会议。
