DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this proposal is to seek support for an APS Conference on "Sex and Gender in Physiology and Pathophysiology of the Cardiovascular-Renal Systems," scheduled for August 9 - 12, 2007 in Austin, Texas. The first goal of this conference is to bring together clinical and basic research scientists who study the role of sex steroids in cardiovascular and renal disease. These investigators pursue their studies across a wide range of methodologies, utilizing genetic to whole animal approaches to address the topic. The program is designed to allow prominent and junior researchers studying the influence of sex steroids on the physiology and pathophysiology of the cardiovascular-renal system to present their work. The second goal is to stimulate, educate and encourage young investigators who are still in training to enter this field of investigation and to provide a forum for them to interact with more established investigators. To this end, many travel awards will be made available for scientists-in-training and special poster-discussion sessions will be held where they can present their work. The specific aims of this proposal include: 1) To convene an internationally recognized and interdisciplinary group of investigators to an APS Conference focusing on the study of the effect of sex steroids on the physiology and pathophysiology of the cardiovascular-renal system. and to outline the direction that future work should take. 2) To promote the wide-spread participation of young scientists in this Conference, with an emphasis on women and underrepresented minorities, through the establishment of a travel award program. 3) To interest new investigators and students in pursuing research opportunities in the study of the role sex steroids play in controlling renal and cardiovascular function by presenting the latest state-of-the-art advances with the overall objective of relating how these new data may prove useful in our understanding of the cardiovascular-renal system from genomics and physiology to disease.

描述（由申请人提供）： 本提案的目的是寻求对定于2007年8月9日至12日在得克萨斯州奥斯汀举行的关于"肾血管系统生理学和病理生理学中的性和性别"的美国心理学会会议的支持。本次会议的第一个目标是汇集临床和基础研究科学家谁研究性类固醇在心血管和肾脏疾病中的作用。这些研究人员在广泛的方法学上进行研究，利用遗传到整个动物的方法来解决这个问题。该计划的目的是让突出和初级研究人员研究性类固醇对心血管肾系统的生理和病理生理的影响，以介绍他们的工作。第二个目标是激励、教育和鼓励仍在接受培训的年轻调查员进入这一调查领域，并为他们提供一个论坛，与更有经验的调查员进行互动。为此，将为受训科学家提供许多旅行奖励，并将举行特别海报讨论会，使他们能够介绍自己的工作。该提案的具体目标包括：1）召集国际公认的跨学科研究者小组参加APS会议，重点研究性类固醇对心血管-肾系统生理学和病理生理学的影响。并概述今后工作的方向。2)通过设立旅行奖励计划，促进青年科学家广泛参加这次会议，重点是妇女和代表人数不足的少数群体。3)感兴趣的新的研究人员和学生在追求研究机会的作用，性类固醇在控制肾和心血管功能的研究中发挥的作用，通过介绍最新的国家的最先进的进展与相关的总体目标如何这些新的数据可能证明有用的心血管肾系统从基因组学和生理学疾病的理解。
