DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 5th Oxford Conference on Modeling and Control of Breathing which will be held at Lake Louise (Alberta, Canada) from 19-24 Septemeber 2006, will be a high profile meeting in the areas of modeling and respiratory control, focusing on an important area of research which has tremendous implications for our understanding of many diseases such as Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), sleep-related breathing disorders including Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), asthma, Rett Syndrome, etc. The first Oxford Conference started in September 1978 at the University of Laboratory of Physiology in Oxford by the late Dr. D.J.C. Cunningham (Oxford), R. Hercynski (Warsaw) and others, who saw a need to bring physiologists and mathematicians together in order to address the critical issues in understanding the control of breathing. Relevant topics in respiratory control that will be covered at this conference include integrative physiology and modeling, central integration and neuromodulation, rhythm generation and plasticity, chemosensory transduction and signaling, pre-and post-natal development and post-genomic perspectives. Since the inaugural meeting in 1978, the Oxford Conference on Modeling and Control of Breathing has been held every 3 years and host countries have included the USA (1982, 1988, 2000), Japan (1991), United Kingdom (1994), France (1985, 2003) and Canada (1997). The 5th Oxford Conference will offer a unique forum for respiratory physiologists, clinicians, neurobiologists, modelers and biomedical engineers from around the world to exchange ideas and present their latest genomic perspectives. Goals of the conference include: 1) To educate scientists, physicians and trainees in the latest findings and developments and physiology of cardio-respiratory control; 2) To integrate basic and clinical scientists with specific interests in cardio-respiratory control and to reveal new insights into this field of research; 3) To encompass integrative approaches that encourage new conceptual and computational models of breathing in intact organisms; 4) To foster interactions between senior scientists and trainees/new upcoming scientists.

描述(申请人提供)：第五届牛津呼吸建模和控制会议将于2006年9月19日至24日在加拿大艾伯塔省路易斯湖举行，将是建模和呼吸控制领域的一次备受瞩目的会议，重点关注一个重要的研究领域，该研究领域对我们理解许多疾病具有巨大的影响，如婴儿猝死综合征(SIDS)，睡眠相关的呼吸障碍，包括阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停(OSA)，哮喘，Rett综合征等。第一届牛津会议于1978年9月由已故的D.J.C.Cunningham博士(牛津)在牛津大学生理学实验室开始，R.Hercynski(华沙)等人，他们认为有必要将生理学家和数学家聚集在一起，以解决理解呼吸控制的关键问题。本次会议将讨论呼吸控制的相关主题，包括综合生理学和建模、中枢整合和神经调节、节律生成和可塑性、化学感觉转导和信号、出生前和出生后发育以及基因组后展望。自1978年首届会议以来，牛津呼吸建模与控制会议每三年举行一次，主办国包括美国(1982、1988、2000)、日本(1991)、英国(1994)、法国(1985、2003)和加拿大(1997)。第五届牛津会议将为来自世界各地的呼吸生理学家、临床医生、神经生物学家、模型师和生物医学工程师提供一个独特的论坛，交流想法并展示他们最新的基因组观点。会议的目标包括：1)教育科学家、医生和受训人员关于心肺控制的最新发现和发展以及生理学；2)整合对心肺控制有特殊兴趣的基础和临床科学家，并揭示该研究领域的新见解；3)采用综合方法，鼓励建立完整生物呼吸的新概念和计算模型；4)促进资深科学家和受训人员/新的未来科学家之间的互动。
