DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application seeks partial support for the 9th International conference on Neural Transplantation and Repair, INTR9, to be held June 8-11, 2005 at the Grand Hotel, Taipei, Taiwan. The conference will provide a much needed multidisciplinary forum for the presentation and critical discussion of the most recent developments in the field of neural transplantation and repair. The conference will focus on repair of neurodegenerative disease and trauma, in particular Parkinson's, Huntington's, and Alzheimer's diseases as well as spinal cord injury and stroke. It will highlight new techniques in translational medicine including stem cell biology and gene therapy. The general theme of the conference is on neural protection and neural repair, particularly as these relate to gene therapy, stem cells, and cell replacement. In particular, there is an international transplant registry and a practice committee that meets during this conference and develops guidelines for clinical practice regarding cell replacement and gene therapy in neuroscience. A broad range of speakers has been sought for this conference, chosen to represent a cross-section of leading scientists in this expanding field. The venue for the ninth international meeting was chosen by an international program committee of the American Society of Neural Transplantation and Repair, and represents the first time the international meeting will be hosted by a Pacific rim nation. Thus, it will provide easier access to a large audience of scientists who may not have been able to attend the prior meetings because of geographical limitations.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请为将于2005年6月8-11日在台湾台北大饭店举行的第9届国际神经移植与修复会议（INTR9）寻求部分支持。会议将为神经移植和修复领域的最新发展提供一个急需的多学科论坛和批判性讨论。会议将重点讨论神经退行性疾病和创伤的修复，特别是帕金森病、亨廷顿病和阿尔茨海默病以及脊髓损伤和中风。它将重点介绍转化医学的新技术，包括干细胞生物学和基因治疗。会议的主题是神经保护和神经修复，特别是涉及到基因治疗、干细胞和细胞替代。特别地，有一个国际移植登记和一个实践委员会在会议期间开会，并制定关于神经科学中细胞替代和基因治疗的临床实践指南。为这次会议寻找了广泛的演讲者，被选中代表这一不断扩大的领域的主要科学家的横截面。第九届国际会议的举办地是由美国神经移植与修复学会国际项目委员会选定的，这是第一次在环太平洋国家举办国际会议。因此，它将为可能由于地理限制而无法参加以前会议的大量科学家提供更容易的途径。
