DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 17th Gordon Research Conference on Atherosclerosis will be held at the Kimball Union Academy in Meriden, NH on June 19-24, 2005. This international conference, which has been held every two years since 1971, will provide an overview of the most important recent developments in the pathobiology of atherosclerosis. The meeting will discuss the various stages in lesion development, proceeding from different risk factors, to lesion initiation, foam cell formation and regression, the inflammatory response of the vessel interaction of various risk factors in mechanisms of atherogenesis, particularly hyperlipidemia, hypertension and diabetes, will be discussed. Throughout special emphasis will be placed on cutting edge technologies and resources that are relevant to the biology of atherosclerosis. Nine sessions are planned and will cover the following topics: 1. Immune Function; 2. Inflammatory processes; S.Thrombotic and hemostatic mechanisms; 4. Lipoprotein Metabolism; 5. Metabolic Syndrome; 6. Macrophage Biology; 7. Vascular Wall Stem Cell Biology; 8. Cell Biology of Atherosclerosis; 9. Human and Animal Genetics of Atherosclerosis. The conference will be a major vehicle for the integration of new knowledge in the field of atherosclerosis research. In order to stimulate an interdisciplinary dialogue, speakers will be invited who represent distinct but overlapping areas of research such as the metabolic syndrome, stem cell biology, genomics, lipoproteins and vascular biology. The conference will encourage the participation of women and minorities. Some of the invited speakers represent young scientists at the beginning of their independent careers. Participation of young scientists will also be encouraged through poster sessions. The conference is planned in such a way that by the end of the conference, the participants will have derived an overall understanding of the biogenesis of atherosclerosis, and will have a clear picture of the latest and most exciting developments in the field.

描述（由申请人提供）： 第17届戈登动脉粥样硬化研究会议将于2005年6月19日至24日在新罕布什尔州梅里登的金博尔联合学院举行。自1971年以来每两年举行一次的国际会议将概述动脉粥样硬化病理生物学的最重要的最新进展。会议将讨论病变发展的各个阶段，从不同的危险因素开始，到病变开始，泡沫细胞形成和消退，将讨论动脉粥样硬化形成机制中各种危险因素的血管相互作用的炎症反应，特别是高脂血症，高血压和糖尿病。在整个过程中，特别强调将放在与动脉粥样硬化生物学相关的尖端技术和资源上。计划举行九次会议，将涉及以下主题：1.免疫功能; 2.炎症过程; S.血栓形成和止血机制; 4.脂蛋白代谢5.代谢综合征; 6.巨噬细胞生物学; 7.血管壁干细胞生物学; 8.动脉粥样硬化的细胞生物学; 9.人类和动物的动脉粥样硬化遗传学。这次会议将成为动脉粥样硬化研究领域新知识整合的主要工具。为了促进跨学科对话，将邀请代表不同但重叠的研究领域的发言人，如代谢综合征，干细胞生物学，基因组学，脂蛋白和血管生物学。会议将鼓励妇女和少数民族的参与。一些受邀的演讲者代表年轻的科学家在他们的独立职业生涯的开始。还将通过海报展示会鼓励青年科学家参与。会议的计划是这样的，到会议结束时，与会者将对动脉粥样硬化的生物成因有一个全面的了解，并将对该领域最新和最令人兴奋的发展有一个清晰的了解。
