DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application seeks funding for scientific presentations at the 22nd Annual Meeting of the International Society of Traumatic Stress Studies (ISTSS) in Hollywood, California. The theme of this meeting is "The Psychobiology of Trauma and Resilience Across the Lifespan." The prevalence of exposure to potentially traumatic events (PTEs) such as child maltreatment, interpersonal violence, crime, disasters, terrorism, and war is high, and exposure is demonstrated to increase risk of several mental disorders including depression, PTSD, and substance use disorders. The proposed presentations within the ISTSS Annual Meeting are designed to address several barriers to improved traumatic stress research and clinical practice that include: 1) fragmentation with respect to type of PTE studied; 2) lack of knowledge of findings and implications of traumatic stress research conducted from different perspectives (e.g., behavioral genetics, psychosocial, biological); 3) failure to consider the developmental impact of PTEs experienced at different points in the lifespan; and 4) poor translation of research findings and their implications from traumatic stress researchers to clinical practitioners. Specific aims are to: (1) organize a meeting that will engage academic, practice, and policy audiences in a discussion about the genetic, biological, and psychosocial factors that influence traumatic stress, resilience, and treatment of trauma-related problems in an effort to educate these disparate audiences and to encourage the development of innovative treatment and research; and (2) integrate psychosocial and biological state of the art knowledge to improve scientific knowledge and scientifically informed clinical practice and advocacy. Under the direction of the Co-PIs and a Project Coordinating Committee, approximately 20% of the 2006 Annual Meeting content will be devoted to addressing these issues. Keynote speakers are Drs. Caspi and Moffitt who will highlight behavioral genetic approaches towards using gene x environment factors to understand risk and resilience given exposure to PTEs. Other plenary speakers will address these issues from psychosocial and biological perspectives. Keynote, plenary, and other presentations will be summarized and published on the ISTSS website, and a Special Section on this topic will be published in the Journal of Traumatic Stress. In collaboration with the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma, special efforts will be made to generate media coverage of research findings and their implications. The coordinating committee will insure that the program committee is diverse with respect to inclusion of women and racial/ethnic groups who are traditionally under represented, similar diversity among speakers. Evaluation will consist of obtaining survey feedback from meeting participants, compiling data on media coverage, and gathering citation data on articles published in the Special Section of JTS.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请为在加利福尼亚州好莱坞举行的国际创伤应激研究学会 (ISTSS) 第 22 届年会上的科学演讲寻求资助。本次会议的主题是“整个生命周期的创伤和复原力的心理生物学”。 暴露于虐待儿童、人际暴力、犯罪、灾难、恐怖主义和战争等潜在创伤事件 (PTE) 的患病率很高，并且事实证明，暴露会增加多种精神疾病的风险，包括抑郁症、创伤后应激障碍 (PTSD) 和药物滥用障碍。 ISTSS 年会上拟议的演讲旨在解决改善创伤应激研究和临床实践的几个障碍，包括：1）所研究的 PTE 类型的碎片化； 2）缺乏对从不同角度（例如行为遗传学、心理社会、生物学）进行的创伤应激研究的结果和影响的了解； 3）未能考虑生命周期不同阶段经历的 PTE 对发育的影响； 4）创伤应激研究人员对临床实践者的研究结果及其影响的翻译不力。具体目标是：（1）组织一次会议，让学术、实践和政策受众参与讨论影响创伤应激、复原力和创伤相关问题治疗的遗传、生物和心理社会因素，以教育这些不同的受众并鼓励创新治疗和研究的发展； (2) 整合最先进的心理社会和生物学知识，以提高科学知识和科学的临床实践和宣传。在联合PI 和项目协调委员会的指导下，2006 年年会的大约20% 的内容将致力于解决这些问题。主讲人是博士。 Caspi 和 Moffitt 将重点介绍使用基因 x 环境因素的行为遗传学方法来了解暴露于 PTE 的风险和恢复力。其他全体会议发言人将从心理社会和生物学角度讨论这些问题。主题演讲、全体会议和其他演讲将在 ISTSS 网站上进行总结和发布，有关该主题的特别章节将在《创伤应激杂志》上发布。将与达特新闻和创伤中心合作，特别努力让媒体报道研究结果及其影响。协调委员会将确保计划委员会在包容传统上代表性不足的妇女和种族/族裔群体方面具有多样性，发言者之间也具有类似的多样性。评估将包括获取会议参与者的调查反馈、汇编媒体报道数据以及收集 JTS 特别版块中发表的文章的引用数据。 ISTSS 年会上拟议的演讲旨在解决改善创伤应激研究和临床实践的几个障碍，包括：1）所研究的 PTE 类型的碎片化； 2）缺乏对从不同角度（例如行为遗传学、心理社会、生物学）进行的创伤应激研究的结果和影响的了解； 3）未能考虑生命周期不同阶段经历的 PTE 对发育的影响； 4）创伤应激研究人员对临床实践者的研究结果及其影响的翻译不力。具体目标是：（1）组织一次会议，让学术、实践和政策受众参与讨论影响创伤应激、复原力和创伤相关问题治疗的遗传、生物和心理社会因素，以教育这些不同的受众并鼓励创新治疗和研究的发展； (2) 整合最先进的心理社会和生物学知识，以提高科学知识和科学的临床实践和宣传。
