DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Funds are requested to support the Conference on the New Phage Biology, also known as the "Phage Summit". This meeting is sponsored by the American Society for Microbiology and is scheduled for Aug. 1-5, 2004, in Key Biscayne, FL. The meeting is intended to bring together scientists from the very diverse areas of research which constitute the New Phage Biology, along with funding agency personnel, regulators and journalists. This is a unique, one-time meeting which will attract participants from all over the U.S.A. and the world. The funding will be used to facilitate the attendance and participation of U.S. scientists, including those who constitute the "classic" phage biology within which lie the origins of modern molecular genetics. The conference structure is designed to foster networking between the scientific workers in the different fields now deeply involved in phage biology, including academic, government/military, and industrial scientists. Resources have been set aside to support the attendance of young investigators, post-doctoral scientists and graduate students. The site was chosen to minimize costs, facilitate travel arrangements, and to foster an interactive atmosphere which will break down disciplinary borders.

描述（由申请人提供）：申请资金支持新噬菌体生物学会议，也被称为“噬菌体峰会”。这次会议是由美国微生物学会主办的，定于2004年8月1日至5日在佛罗里达州的比斯坎岛举行。会议的目的是将来自不同研究领域的科学家聚集在一起，这些研究领域构成了新噬菌体生物学，以及资助机构人员、监管机构和记者。这是一次独特的、一次性的会议，将吸引来自美国和世界各地的与会者。这笔资金将用于促进美国科学家的出席和参与，包括那些构成现代分子遗传学起源的“经典”噬菌体生物学的科学家。会议结构旨在促进不同领域的科学工作者之间的联系，包括学术，政府/军事和工业科学家，现在深入参与噬菌体生物学。已经拨出资源来支持年轻的研究人员、博士后科学家和研究生的出席。场地的选择是为了最大限度地降低成本，方便旅行安排，并营造一种打破学科界限的互动氛围。
