DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 13th annual Urology Summer Research Conference, presented by the AuA and the SBUR, is entitled "Inflammation in Prostate Diseases." The meeting will be held August 19 and 20, 2005, at the AUA Headquarters Building in Linthicum, Maryland,. The mission of these meetings is to provide an intense and intimate forum for established investigators, both from within the field of urology research and from outside the field, to meet with junior investigators to review advances in a topic related to urologic research. The conference topic was selected by a needs assessment survey and approved by the AUA and SBUR. The 2005 conference will provide a review of the interaction of inflammation in prostate diseases, including prostatitis, prostate cancer, and benign prostatic hyperplasia. Research is revealing a previously unsuspected role for inflammation in a variety of important diseases, such as heart disease and cancer. Inflammation is now also suspected to play an important role in prostate diseases as well. The 2005 AUA and SBUR Summer Research Conference will provide an overview of the current knowledge on inflammation in prostate diseases in five topic sessions over two days, including keynote lectures and panel discussions. In addition, a special mentoring session will be held to encourage and assist young investigators to enter and become established in the field. Funding is requested to support housing and travel for new investigators. Due to financial constraints, many younger investigators could not attend such a meeting without external support. Support for this meeting will encourage the future development of urology research by providing mentoring for new investigators as well as education on this emerging research area.

描述（由申请人提供）： 由 AuA 和 SBUR 主办的第 13 届年度泌尿学夏季研究会议的主题是“前列腺疾病中的炎症”。会议将于2005年8月19日至20日在马里兰州林西克姆的AUA总部大楼举行。这些会议的使命是为泌尿学研究领域内和领域外的资深研究人员提供一个紧张而亲密的论坛，与初级研究人员会面，回顾泌尿学研究相关主题的进展。会议主题是通过需求评估调查选定的，并得到 AUA 和 SBUR 的批准。 2005 年会议将回顾炎症在前列腺疾病（包括前列腺炎、前列腺癌和良性前列腺增生）中的相互作用。研究揭示了炎症在多种重要疾病（例如心脏病和癌症）中的作用，这一作用以前未被怀疑。现在人们怀疑炎症在前列腺疾病中也发挥着重要作用。 2005 AUA 和 SBUR 夏季研究会议将在为期两天的五个主题会议中概述前列腺疾病炎症的最新知识，包括主题演讲和小组讨论。此外，还将举办特别辅导会，鼓励和帮助年轻研究者进入该领域并站稳脚跟。需要资金来支持新调查人员的住宿和旅行。由于经济限制，许多年轻的研究者在没有外部支持的情况下无法参加这样的会议。对本次会议的支持将通过为新研究人员提供指导以及这一新兴研究领域的教育来鼓励泌尿学研究的未来发展。
