DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal requests partial funding for a 2-1/2 day conference that will be held on May 24-26 2006 at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, Long Island, New York. The Eugene P. Cronkite Symposium is named in honor of a pioneer in experimental hematology and radiation biology. The conference is anticipated to attract 150 participants, including scientists and clinicians from throughout the USA, including the tri-state area of New York, Connecticut and New Jersey. It is also anticipated that approximately 25 scientists trained by Dr. Cronkite from around the world will attend the conference. The goals of the conference are to (i) promote interactions amoung scientists and experts in the fields of hematopoeisis, radiation biology and radiation response planning and treatment, and (ii) provide the opportunity for promising young investigators to present their research work and interact with leaders in the field. Topics to be covered include (1) regulation of cell cycle and differentiation of hematopoietic cells, (2) application of cytokine therapy to treatment of hematologic malignancies, (3) mechanisms and treatment of acute and chronic leukemias, (4) effects of radiation on the cell cycle, leukemic transformation, DNA repair, gene expression and intercellular signaling, (5) current and new approaches to treatment of radiationinduced hematopoietic syndrome, and (6) healthcare response planning for management of small volume and mass casualty scenarios resulting from exposure of individuals to radioactive material.

说明（由申请人提供）：该提案要求为将于 2006 年 5 月 24 日至 26 日在纽约长岛厄普顿的布鲁克海文国家实验室举行的为期 2-1/2 天的会议提供部分资金。 尤金·克朗凯特研讨会以实验血液学和放射生物学先驱的名字命名。 此次会议预计将吸引 150 名与会者，其中包括来自美国各地（包括纽约州、康涅狄格州和新泽西州三州地区）的科学家和临床医生。 预计来自世界各地的约 25 名接受过 Cronkite 博士培训的科学家将出席此次会议。 会议的目标是（i）促进造血、放射生物学以及放射反应规划和治疗领域的科学家和专家之间的互动，以及（ii）为有前途的年轻研究人员提供展示其研究工作并与该领域的领导者互动的机会。涵盖的主题包括（1）细胞周期和造血细胞分化的调节，（2）细胞因子疗法在血液恶性肿瘤治疗中的应用，（3）急性和慢性白血病的机制和治疗，（4）辐射对细胞周期、白血病转化、DNA修复、基因表达和细胞间信号传导的影响，（5）治疗辐射诱导的细胞因子的当前和新方法 造血综合症；(6) 医疗保健应对计划，用于管理因个人暴露于放射性物质而造成的小规模和大规模伤亡情况。
