The Gordon Research Conference on Cilia, Mucus, and Mucociliary Interactions, held from February 27 to March 4, 2005, at the Rancho Santa Barbara Marriott in Buellton, California, will provide a unique opportunity for scientists involved in ciliary, mucous and mucociliary research to present their latest progress and to exchange ideas, thus bringing together a very diverse group of scientists who usually do not meet. Abnormal cilia and mucus contribute to a variety of human diseases including diseases of the airways, abnormal left-right asymmetry, and polycystic kidney disease to name a few. Many of these diseases have no effective or only limited treatment options. Thus, there is a clear need for a small meeting focusing on these topics. As a Gordon Research Conference, the meeting will follow the highly successful model of such conference layouts and will offer 9 plenary sessions and additional poster sessions. Three of the plenary sessions will be devoted to cilia, one to primary ciliary dyskinesia, three to mucus and mucins, and two to mucociliary interactions. The organizing committee has invited an international and diverse group of many young but also established investigators to present their work during plenary sessions. Discussions have been recognized to be vital to the success of the conference and ample time for these will be allowed between speakers during plenary sessions, facilitated by discussion leaders. Finally, poster sessions will complement the plenary sessions and free afternoons will further enable idea exchanges between scientists.

2005年2月27日至3月4日在加州布尔顿的圣巴巴拉万豪牧场举行的关于纤毛、粘液和粘液纤毛相互作用的戈登研究会议将为参与纤毛、粘液和粘液纤毛研究的科学家提供一个独特的机会，介绍他们的最新进展并交换意见，从而汇集了一批通常不见面的非常多样化的科学家。异常纤毛和粘液导致多种人类疾病，包括气道疾病、异常左右不对称和多囊肾疾病，仅举几例。这些疾病中的许多没有有效的或 只有有限的治疗选择。因此，显然需要召开一次小型会议，集中讨论这些议题。作为戈登研究会议，会议将遵循这种会议布局的高度成功的模式，并将提供9个全体会议和额外的海报会议。三次全体会议将专门讨论纤毛，一次主要纤毛运动障碍，三次粘液和粘蛋白，两次粘液纤毛的相互作用。组织委员会邀请了一个由许多年轻但也有经验的调查人员组成的国际性和多样化小组，在全体会议上介绍他们的工作。讨论被认为对会议的成功至关重要，在全体会议期间，在讨论领导人的推动下，发言者之间将有足够的时间进行讨论。最后，海报会议将补充全体会议，自由下午将进一步促进科学家之间的思想交流。
