DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The present application is requesting funds to support travel awards for senior post-doctoral fellows and junior faculty to attend the conference 'New Paradigms in Vascular Biology: Renal Implications.' The conference will be held October 27-28, 2004 at the America's Center in St. Louis, MO as part of the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Renal Week 2004. The kidneys are among the most richly vascularized organs in mammals; however, the mechanisms regulating development and maintenance of the renal vascular supply are poorly understood. The proposed conference is needed and will be scientifically very useful to the renal community. It will bring together the best scientists in the field of vascular biology, and expose the renal community to the current understanding of vascular biology across systems. It is with such exposure that researchers interested in the kidney can develop collaborations, be exposed to new technical approaches to studying the vascular cell, and apply what is known about vascular cell physiology and pathophysiology in other organ systems to the kidney. Given the current milieu of academia, it is often difficult for investigators to attend multiple meetings every year. Having this conference in conjunction with the annual meeting of the ASN, which is the largest kidney research and clinical meeting in the world, permits the renal community to, in effect, attend another meeting. The program includes two common meal/reception events to enhance communication between the invited speakers and participants. Our past experience is that these 'social' events promote the development of collaborations within and between the renal and non-renal communities. The program is divided into 3 sessions: 1) Angiogenesis, 2) Development, and 3) Atherosclerosis, Inflammation, and Repair, in addition to a key note speaker. Of the confirmed speakers, 4 are women and 6 are men

描述(由申请人提供)： 目前申请的是资助高级博士后研究员和初级教师参加“血管生物学的新范例：肾脏影响”会议的旅费奖励。会议将于2004年10月27日至28日在密苏里州圣路易斯的美国中心举行，作为2004年美国肾脏学会(ASN)肾周的一部分。 肾脏是哺乳动物中血管最丰富的器官之一；然而，调节肾脏血管供应的发育和维持的机制却知之甚少。拟议的会议是必要的，而且在科学上将对肾脏界非常有用。它将把血管生物学领域最好的科学家聚集在一起，并使肾脏社区了解目前跨系统的血管生物学。正是有了这样的接触，对肾脏感兴趣的研究人员才能开展合作，接触到研究血管细胞的新技术方法，并将其他器官系统中的血管细胞生理学和病理生理学的已知知识应用于肾脏。鉴于目前的学术界环境，调查人员往往很难每年出席多个会议。在世界上最大的肾脏研究和临床会议--ASN年会的同时召开这次会议，实际上允许肾脏界参加另一次会议。 该计划包括两个常见的用餐/接待活动，以加强受邀演讲者和参与者之间的沟通。我们过去的经验是，这些“社交”活动促进了肾脏和非肾脏社区内部和之间的合作发展。 课程分为3个部分：1)血管生成，2)发展，3)动脉粥样硬化、炎症和修复，此外还有一个重要的演讲者。在确认的发言者中，4名是女性，6名是男性
