DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Gordon Research Conference on Barrier Function of Mammalian Skin is a biennial event, scheduled for its ninth meeting from August 7-12, 2005 at Mt Holyoke College in Massachusetts. This conference is generally fully- to oversubscribed, which makes it possible to accept an optimal mix of attendees from academics, industry and government. Junior and senior scientists are equally represented (about 50% females) and 40-50% of attendees are from overseas. As in prior meetings, a concerted attempt is being made to recruit speakers and attendees from around the world for the 2005 meeting, particularly from Eastern Europe, Asia, and the FSU (Former Soviet Union). The 2005 conference proposes a balance of topics with individual sessions devoted to: Comparative Biology and Physics of the Epidermal Barrier, Nanoscale Characterization of Skin Permeability, Molecular Mechanisms of Cornification, Follicular Penetration, Imaging the Stratum Corneum, and Novel Analytical Techniques. In addition three poster sessions are scheduled for the evening with up to 30 presentations each, which will complement the diverse themes of this meeting. Funds are requested to support a portion of the total expenses; the remainder will be supported by a $23,500 grant from the Gordon Research Conferences, with additional sums solicited from industry primarily to support foreign travel and social activities. The 2005 GRC meeting on Barrier Function of Maammalian Skin will be an important interdisciplinary venue, where the latest information and de patients with skin and other disorders as well as to new insights into the origin and maintenance of mammalian barrier function.

描述（由申请人提供）：关于哺乳动物皮肤屏障功能的戈登研究会议是两年一度的活动，定于2005年8月7日至12日在马萨诸塞州的霍利奥克山学院举行第九次会议。这个会议通常是完全超额认购，这使得它可以接受来自学术界，工业界和政府的与会者的最佳组合。初级科学家和高级科学家人数相等（约50%为女性），40-50%的与会者来自海外。与前几次会议一样，正在努力从世界各地，特别是从东欧、亚洲和前苏联招募发言者和与会者参加2005年的会议。2005年的会议提出了一个平衡的主题与个别会议致力于：比较生物学和物理学的表皮屏障，皮肤渗透性的纳米表征，角质化的分子机制，毛囊渗透，成像角质层，和新的分析技术。此外，晚上还安排了三场海报会议，每场最多30场演讲，这将补充本次会议的各种主题。资金被要求支持总费用的一部分;其余部分将由戈登研究会议提供的23，500美元赠款支持，并从工业界筹集额外资金，主要用于支持国外旅行和社会活动。2005年GRC关于Maammalian皮肤屏障功能的会议将是一个重要的跨学科场所，在那里，最新的信息和治疗皮肤和其他疾病的患者，以及对哺乳动物屏障功能的起源和维持的新见解。
