DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application requests continued funding for a period of 3 years to support translational research lectures, a special interdisciplinary session, and the presentation of student/resident research at the annual meeting of the American Auditory Society (AAS). These functions were funded by NIH conference grants in 2002 and 2003, and both were highly successful. The AAS was founded in 1974 as a multi-disciplinary association whose mission is to foster dissemination of knowledge and exchange of information about hearing and balance among professionals in Otolaryngology, Hearing Science, Audiology and Industry. Since 1999, we have held our own stand-alone annual conference. The attendance at these meetings has steadily increased from less than 180 in 1999 to over 275 in 2003. The meetings represent a unique opportunity to share the latest applied, clinical research in otolaryngology, audiology and prosthetic development in a small meeting venue. While there are excellent meetings for basic research, fewer opportunities exist for the presentation of rigorous clinical research, and there is no single venue in which basic and applied research are integrated. The purpose of the translational research lectures is to facilitate the transfer of basic research findings into clinical application. The purpose of the special session is to provide a focused interdisciplinary session on one topic of current interest to the disciplines represented in the AAS. The purpose of the Mentored Student/Resident Research Poster Session is to promote the future of research in our disciplines through recognition and mentorship of doctoral students in Audiology and residents engaged in research in Otolaryngology. There has been a decline in the number of Ph.D. Audiology graduates, and increasingly fewer of those graduates enter academic or research careers. Research by clinician scientists in Otolaryngology has also declined in recent years, although trends are changing. We propose a poster-session venue designed to showcase and support Ph.D.-student and resident research, and to encourage individual interaction with noted scientists and mentors in Audiology, Otolaryngology, Hearing Science and Bioengineering. The invited speakers and student/resident poster session provide unique opportunities for basic scientific research to be presented in a format that will encourage its application to clinical practice and will promote future research in Hearing Science, Audiology, and Otolaryngology. Our approach also provides an opportunity for interdisciplinary discussion and cross fertilization, which should foster more productive, applied research endeavors.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请要求持续资助3年，以支持翻译研究讲座，特别跨学科会议，并在美国听觉学会（AAS）年会上介绍学生/居民研究。2002年和2003年，这些职能得到了NIH会议赠款的资助，而且都非常成功。AAS成立于1974年，是一个多学科协会，其使命是促进耳鼻喉科、听力科学、听力学和工业专业人员之间关于听力和平衡的知识传播和信息交流。自1999年以来，我们举办了自己的独立年度会议。参加这些会议的人数从1999年的不到180人稳步增加到2003年的275人以上。这些会议代表了一个独特的机会，分享最新的应用，临床研究在耳鼻喉科，听力学和假肢的发展在一个小会议场地。 虽然有很好的基础研究会议，但很少有机会介绍严格的临床研究，也没有一个单一的场所将基础研究和应用研究结合起来。转化研究讲座的目的是促进基础研究成果转化为临床应用。特别会议的目的是提供一个有重点的跨学科会议，讨论AAS所代表的学科目前感兴趣的一个主题。指导学生/居民研究海报会议的目的是通过对听力学博士生和从事耳鼻喉科研究的居民的认可和指导，促进我们学科研究的未来。博士数量有所下降。 听力学毕业生，越来越少的毕业生进入学术或研究生涯。耳鼻喉科临床科学家的研究近年来也有所下降，尽管趋势正在发生变化。我们提出了一个海报会议场地，旨在展示和支持博士-学生和居民的研究，并鼓励个人与听力学，耳鼻喉科，听力科学和生物工程领域的著名科学家和导师的互动。 特邀演讲者和学生/居民海报会议为基础科研提供了独特的机会，以鼓励其应用于临床实践，并促进听力科学，听力学和耳鼻喉科的未来研究。我们的方法还提供了一个跨学科讨论和交叉施肥的机会，这应该促进更富有成效的应用研究工作。
