DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Gordon Research Conference on Barrier Function of Mammalian Skin is a biennial event, scheduled for its tenth meeting from August 5-10, 2007 at Salve Regina University in Rhode Island. This conference represents the primary international research forum on the mammalian barrier, and is focused on the biophysical, biological, and clinical aspects of both normal and diseased barrier formation and function in the epidermis. This conference is generally fully- to oversubscribed, which makes it possible to accept an optimal mix of attendees from academics, industry and government. Junior and senior scientists are equally represented (approximately 40% females), with 40-50% of attendees are from overseas. As in prior meetings, a concerted attempt is being made to recruit speakers and attendees from around the world for the 2007 meeting, particularly from Eastern Europe, Asia, and the FSU (Former Soviet Union). The 2007 conference proposes a balance of topics with individual sessions devoted to: The adaptive and reactive barrier; Stratum corneum formation and maturation; Strategies to maximize and assess skin penetration; Emerging epidermal barrier functions; Skin biomechanics; Consequences of affecting or crossing the skin barrier; and, Lifestyle and barrier function. In addition, a Hot topics/Young investigators session will include six-to-seven presentators selected from poster presenters. Finally, to complement the diverse themes of this meeting, three poster sessions are scheduled for the evenings, with up to 30 presentations in each session. Funds are requested from NIAMS to support a portion of the total expenses; the remainder will be supported by a $23,500 grant from the GRC Organization, with additional sums, primarily to support foreign travel as well as the minimal social activities associated with this conference, being solicited from industry. The 2007 GRC meeting on Barrier Function of Mammalian Skin will be an important interdisciplinary venue, where the latest information and developments in this field will be shared. This conference promises to provide new insights into the origin and maintenance of the mammalian barrier, that will hopefully lead to immediate, practical consequences for patients with skin and other disorders.

说明（由申请人提供）： 哺乳动物皮肤屏障功能戈登研究会议每两年举办一次，第十次会议定于 2007 年 8 月 5 日至 10 日在罗德岛州萨尔维里贾纳大学举行。这次会议是关于哺乳动物屏障的主要国际研究论坛，重点关注哺乳动物屏障的生物物理、生物学和临床方面 表皮中正常和患病的屏障形成和功能。这次会议的报名人数普遍达到超额，这使得能够接受来自学术界、工业界和政府的最佳与会者组合。初级和高级科学家的比例相等（约 40% 为女性），其中 40-50% 的与会者来自海外。与之前的会议一样，2007 年会议正在努力招募来自世界各地的发言者和与会者，特别是来自东欧、亚洲和前苏联的发言者和与会者。 2007 年会议提出了各个主题的平衡，各个会议致力于： 适应性和反应性障碍；角质层的形成和成熟；最大化和评估皮肤渗透的策略；新兴的表皮屏障功能；皮肤生物力学；影响或穿过皮肤屏障的后果；以及，生活方式和屏障功能。此外，热点话题/青年研究者会议将包括从海报演讲者中选出的六到七名演讲者。最后，为了补充本次会议的多样化主题，晚上安排了三场海报会议，每场会议最多有 30 个演讲。向 NIAMS 申请资金来支持总费用的一部分；其余部分将由 GRC 组织提供的 23,500 美元赠款提供支持，另外的款项主要用于支持出国旅行以及与本次会议相关的最低限度的社会活动（向业界征集）。 2007 年关于哺乳动物皮肤屏障功能的 GRC 会议将成为一个重要的跨学科场所，届时将分享该领域的最新信息和进展。这次会议有望为哺乳动物屏障的起源和维护提供新的见解， 这有望为患有皮肤病和其他疾病的患者带来直接、实际的影响。
