This proposal requests funds to support the annual Autumn Immunology Conference (AIC). The AIC was established in 1971 to promote Immunology research in the upper Midwest region of the United States. The conference provides a forum for the exchange of scientific data and ideas, fosters collaborations between scientists at different institutions, and provides career development and education opportunities to a diverse group of individuals with an interest in Immunology. The scientific focus of the meeting is intentionally broad; it includes basic Immunology and related biomedical fields such as cancer biology, pathogenesis, vaccine development, inflammation, and autoimmunity. Special emphasis is given to providing pre- and post-doctoral trainees with an opportunity to share their data, participate in scientific and career discussions, and to meet and exchange ideas with established investigators. We also seek to attract, involve, and promote the careers of women and racial/ethnic minorities that are underrepresented in science. These objectives are met by inviting a group of outstanding Immunology researchers (12-13 each year) from around the world, to speak at the meeting. Poster and oral presentation sessions are designed to provide the greatest opportunity for feedback to the trainees. Finally, scholarship programs, career development workshops, and mentoring luncheons promote the inclusion of minority scientists and seek to recruit undergraduates into the discipline of Immunology.

该提案要求提供资金，以支持每年秋季免疫学 会议（AIC）。AIC成立于1971年，旨在促进免疫学 在美国上中西部地区的研究。会议 为科学数据和思想的交流提供了一个论坛， 不同机构的科学家之间的合作，并提供职业生涯 发展和教育机会，以一个不同的群体， 对免疫学感兴趣。 会议的科学重点是广泛的;它包括基本的 免疫学和相关的生物医学领域，如癌症生物学，发病机制， 疫苗开发、炎症和自身免疫。特别强调 致力于为博士前和博士后学员提供分享 他们的数据，参与科学和职业讨论，并满足和 与资深调查员交流想法。我们还寻求吸引，参与， 并促进妇女和种族/少数民族的职业生涯， 在科学领域的代表性不足。 这些目标是通过邀请一组杰出的免疫学 来自世界各地的研究人员（每年12-13人）在会议上发言。 海报和口头介绍会议旨在提供最大的 给学员反馈的机会。最后，奖学金计划，职业生涯 发展讲习班和辅导午餐会促进了 少数民族科学家，并寻求招募本科生进入学科， 免疫学。
