The first Gordon Conference on Gradient Sensing and Directed Cell Migration will be held February 20-25, 2005 at the Four Point Sheraton, Harbortown,California. This meeting will focus directly on mechanisms of eukaryotic chemotaxis. Because chemotaxis is critical for allergies and infectious disease, neurological diseases, development, immunology, wound healing, and tumor cell metastasis, the meeting is designed to bring together the leading chemotaxis researchers in these fields for cross-fertilization of concepts and approaches. This strategy is manifested by organizing each topic according to stage in the process; for example, researchers in different fields who are focused on chemotaxis signaling networks are grouped together in a single session. The session topics are chosen to focus attention on the critical steps in chemotactic signaling, providing attendees with an integrated overview of the entire chemotaxis process over the course of the entire meeting. The goal of the meeting is to advance our understanding of these mechanisms by bringing together modelers with the leading experts in the study of cell polarization in chemotaxis in systems including leukocytes, neurons, fibroblasts, tumor cells, yeast, Dictyostelium, Drosophila, and C. elegans. We have planned nine sessions with a total of 29 plenary talks, and each session will be chaired by an expert in the topic who will lead the discussion. Considerable time is planned to encourage extensive discussion. The program will provide opportunities for investigators at all levels to participate, including those currently funded through the NIH, including NIAID, NINDS, NCI, NHLBI, and NIGMS. The program will also provide opportunity for 20 "short talk" presentations, which will be selected by the session chairs from submitted abstracts and posters. The final list of conferees (including session chairs, speakers and participants) will be chosen so as to represent researchers from all sectors. We will encourage the participation of junior investigators, post-doctoral trainees and new investigators to the field in all aspects of the meeting. In addition, we will foster the involvement of women, diverse groups of minorities and handicapped individuals who are interested in studying chemotaxis.

第一届梯度传感和定向细胞迁移戈登会议将于2005年2月20日至25日在加州哈伯敦的四点喜来登酒店举行。这次会议将直接集中在真核细胞趋化性的机制。由于趋化性对过敏和传染病，神经系统疾病，发育，免疫学，伤口愈合和肿瘤细胞转移至关重要，因此会议旨在汇集这些领域的领先趋化性研究人员，以交叉概念和方法。这一策略通过根据过程中的阶段组织每个主题来体现;例如，将专注于趋化性信号网络的不同领域的研究人员分组 在一个单一的会议。会议主题的选择集中注意力在趋化信号的关键步骤，为与会者提供了整个会议过程中的整个趋化过程的综合概述。会议的目标是通过将建模者与系统中趋化性细胞极化研究的领先专家聚集在一起，以促进我们对这些机制的理解，这些系统包括白细胞，神经元，成纤维细胞，肿瘤细胞，酵母，Dictyosteopathy，果蝇和C。优美的我们计划举行9场会议，共29场全体会议，每场会议将由一位专题专家主持，他将领导讨论。计划用大量时间鼓励广泛讨论。该计划将为各级研究人员提供参与的机会，包括目前通过NIH资助的研究人员，包括NIAID、NINDS、NCI、NHLBI和 黑鬼。该计划还将提供20个“简短谈话”的机会，这将是从提交的摘要和海报会议主席选择。与会者（包括会议主席、发言者和与会者）的最后名单将选出，以代表所有部门的研究人员。我们将鼓励初级研究人员、博士后学员和新到实地的研究人员参加会议的各个方面。此外，我们将促进妇女，少数民族和残疾人谁是有兴趣研究趋化性不同群体的参与。
