DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal requests partial support for the 2006 Gordon Research Conference on Microbial Stress Responses to be held July 9-14, 2006 at Mount Holyoke College, South Hadley, MA. The 2006 session of this extraordinarily successful meeting will emphasize the use of cross-disciplinary approaches to study microbial stress responses. The confirmed speakers represent disciplines that approach problems in biomedical research from both the physical/computational sciences and biological sciences. Such cross-disciplinary approaches and interactions are critical to achieving the next breakthroughs in biomedical research. This meeting is also distinguished for its broad examination and cutting edge approaches to the study of stress responses. As such, it allows the cross fertilization of new ideas and approaches to the study of this important field and beyond. As indicated by the session titles, this meeting will include stress responses of pathogenic organisms induced by association with their hosts as well as the survival of organisms in their natural environment. Thus the sessions will improve our understanding of the role of bacteria in human health and disease. In addition, this year we will have a session to examine systems biology/computational approaches to dissecting stress responses networks, including single cell approaches. We will also have several speakers working on eukaryotic systems (including structural biology, DMA damage sensing and oxidative stress). The meeting will highlight new developments in metal and oxidative stress, as well as specialized and general stress responses. In addition, we are committed to diversity and our speakers include women, underrepresented minorities and new faculty. Besides the invited speakers in each session, we will choose additional speakers from submitted abstracts. In summary, this meeting will play a strategic role in advancing microbial research by integrating cutting edge, structural, molecular, and computational science approaches to the study of microbial systems and their stress responses. This meeting provides an unparalleled venue to bring together computational and experimental scientists with the aim of developing new approaches to study stress responses, thereby uncovering new knowledge important to human health and disease.

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案要求对将于2006年7月9日至14日在马萨诸塞州南哈德利的蒙特霍利奥克学院举行的2006年戈登微生物应激反应研究会议提供部分支持。2006年的会议非常成功，将强调使用跨学科的方法来研究微生物的应激反应。确认的发言者代表从物理/计算科学和生物科学两方面处理生物医学研究问题的学科。这种跨学科的方法和相互作用对于实现生物医学研究的下一个突破至关重要。这次会议还以其广泛的审查和对压力反应研究的前沿方法而闻名。因此，它允许交叉施肥的新思想和方法来研究这个重要的领域和超越。如会议标题所示，本次会议将包括病原体与其宿主的联系引起的应激反应以及生物体在其自然环境中的生存。因此，这些会议将提高我们对细菌在人类健康和疾病中的作用的理解。此外，今年我们将有一个会议来研究系统生物学/计算方法来解剖压力反应网络，包括单细胞方法。我们还将有几位演讲者致力于真核系统（包括结构生物学，DMA损伤传感和氧化应激）。会议将突出金属和氧化应激的新发展，以及专门和一般的应激反应。此外，我们致力于多样性，我们的发言人包括妇女，代表性不足的少数民族和新的教师。除了每次会议的特邀发言者外，我们还将从提交的摘要中选择其他发言者。总之，这次会议将通过整合尖端，结构，分子和计算科学方法来研究微生物系统及其应激反应，在推进微生物研究方面发挥战略作用。这次会议提供了一个无与伦比的场所，汇集了计算和实验科学家，旨在开发新的方法来研究压力反应，从而揭示对人类健康和疾病重要的新知识。
