DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology (ISMB) conference provides a general forum for disseminating the latest developments in bioinformatics. ISMB is a multidisciplinary conference that brings together scientists from computer science, molecular biology, mathematics and statistics. The venue for the ISMB meeting moves annually between North America and non North American sites. The dates for ISMB 2005 is June 25 - 29, 2005, and will be held in Detroit, Ml, USA. ISMB 2006 will be held in Fortaleza, BRAZIL on August 06-10, 2006. The ISMB 2007 site is yet to be determined. The goal of the ISMB meeting is to bring together biologists and computational scientists in a focus on actual biological problems, i.e., not simply theoretical calculations. The combined focus on "intelligent systems" and actual biological data makes ISMB a unique and highly important meeting. This grant requests funding in support of student participation and student related costs. In a highly international and interdisciplinary field such as computational biology, it is important for students to gain experience with a variety of approaches and viewpoints. Students will have ample opportunity, in many cases for the first time, to present their work as posters or as formal presentations. The contacts that they form and the directions they choose may last their professional lives. It has been the experience of ISMB conferences in the past that the high number of student and young investigator participants (approximately 37% of all participants) gives the conference a unique vitality and energy. This proposal seeks to assist them at this critical but resource-limited stage in their careers.

描述(由申请人提供)：分子生物学智能系统(ISMB)会议为传播生物信息学的最新发展提供了一个通用论坛。ISMB是一个多学科会议，汇集了来自计算机科学、分子生物学、数学和统计学的科学家。ISMB会议的地点每年在北美和非北美地点之间移动。ISMB 2005的日期是2005年6月25日至29日，将在美国密歇根州底特律举行。ISMB 2006将于2006年8月6日至10日在巴西福塔莱萨举行。ISMB 2007网站尚未确定。ISMB会议的目标是将生物学家和计算科学家聚集在一起，专注于实际的生物学问题，即不仅仅是理论计算。对“智能系统”和实际生物数据的共同关注使ISMB成为一次独特的、非常重要的会议。 这笔助学金要求提供资金，以支持学生参与和与学生相关的费用。在高度国际化和跨学科的领域，如计算生物学，对学生来说，获得各种方法和观点的经验是很重要的。学生们将有足够的机会，在许多情况下是第一次，以海报或正式演示的形式展示他们的作品。他们建立的人脉和他们选择的方向可能会延续他们的职业生涯。过去ISMB会议的经验是，学生和年轻研究人员的大量参加(约占所有参与者的37%)使会议具有独特的活力和活力。这项提议旨在帮助他们在职业生涯的这个关键但资源有限的阶段。
