DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) We request support for students and new investigators (within 5 year years of doctoral degree, hereafter "students") to participate in the 9th International Conference on Environmental Mutagens (9th ICEM) hosted by the Environmental Mutagen Society (EMS). The meeting will be held September 3-8, 2005 at the Hyatt Regency Hotel at the Embarcadero in San Francisco, CA. The ICEM is held every 4 years and was last hosted in the US 16 years ago. We anticipate attracting 1200 participants worldwide, including about 200 students and new investigators who are associated with members of the EMS and corresponding environmental mutagen societies in many other countries. The EMS is the primary scientific society devoted to the understanding of the basic mechanisms of mutagenesis and their implications for human genetic disease, cancer, and aging. The EMS is unique in that it also is the relevant society for applied science in this field, including genotoxicity risk assessment and regulatory matters. It is the appropriate society for researchers interested in the development and application of transgenic technology for toxicological studies and for the development of methods for studying mutations, mutagenic mechanisms, environmental carcinogens, and DNA repair in model cellular systems as well as humans. The theme for the 9th ICEM is "Global Issues in Genetic Toxicology and Environmental Mutagenesis." To highlight these issues and to explore solutions to these global threats to our collective health, the 9th ICEM will offer 46 symposia, 2 keynote lectures, and 12 plenary lectures from the world leaders in environmental mutagenesis and related fields. The development of students and new investigators onto productive research scientists and full participating members of the Environmental Mutagen societies, worldwide is a key goal of the EMS and ICEM. Providing students with the opportunity to participate in the ICEM is a critical factor in their development. A variety of activities during the meeting have been planned to integrate students into the full activities of the meeting. Student achievement awards will be made to students who submit an abstract for a presentation at the ICEM. Primary criteria for selection of awardees will be the scientific quality of the abstract, a letter of recommendation from the mentor, and relevance of the abstract to the scientific interests of the EMS/ICEM. Awards will be made without regard to gender, race, ethnicity, nationality, or disability.

描述（由申请人提供） 我们请求支持学生和新的研究人员（博士学位5年内，以下简称“学生”）参加由环境诱变剂协会（EMS）主办的第9届环境诱变剂国际会议（第9届ICEM）。 会议将于2005年9月3日至8日在加利福尼亚州弗朗西斯科Embarcadero的凯悦酒店举行。 ICEM每四年举办一次，上一次在美国举办是在16年前。 我们预计将吸引全球1200名参与者，其中包括约200名学生和新的研究人员，他们与EMS和许多其他国家相应的环境诱变剂协会的成员有关。 EMS是致力于了解诱变的基本机制及其对人类遗传疾病，癌症和衰老的影响的主要科学协会。 EMS的独特之处在于它也是该领域应用科学的相关协会，包括遗传毒性风险评估和监管事项。 它是对毒理学研究的转基因技术的开发和应用感兴趣的研究人员的适当协会，并为研究突变，诱变机制，环境致癌物和模型细胞系统以及人类的DNA修复的方法的开发。 第九届ICEM的主题是“遗传毒理学和环境诱变的全球问题”。“为了突出这些问题，并探索解决这些对我们集体健康的全球威胁的方法，第九届ICEM将提供46个专题讨论会，2个主题演讲和12个来自环境诱变及相关领域的世界领导人的全体演讲。 将学生和新的研究人员培养成富有成效的研究科学家和全世界环境诱变剂协会的正式成员是EMS和ICEM的一个关键目标。为学生提供参与ICEM的机会是他们发展的关键因素。 会议期间计划了各种活动，以使学生融入会议的全部活动。 学生成就奖将颁发给在ICEM上提交摘要的学生。 选择获奖者的主要标准将是摘要的科学质量，导师的推荐信，以及摘要与EMS/ICEM科学兴趣的相关性。 奖项将不考虑性别，种族，民族，国籍或残疾。
