DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Support is requested to facilitate the participation of young investigators in a meeting on Biodosimetry for response to unexpected exposures to ionizing radiation to be held at Dartmouth (Hanover, NH) September 7 - 11, 2008. The aim of the meeting is to provide a venue for a discussion of the latest approaches for biodosimetry for unplanned radiation exposures in a context that also provides the essential aspects of the problems and the institutional entities that are involved in dealing with them. The overall aim and expectation is that the meeting will advance the state of biodosimetry by providing the leading workers in the field with an assessment of the state of the art by other groups, critical feedback on their approach to the problem, and enhancing synergistic further developments through cooperation and collaboration. This goal will be greatly facilitated by interacting with experts and planners at levels ranging from the overall federal strategy for dealing with the problem to physicians who are attempting to develop the infrastructure and expertise needed to deal at a local level with the medical problems that would result from such an event. This is a critical and currently unmet need in view of the potential threat of a major radiation incident instigated by terrorists. The ability to measure the radiation dose received by individuals potentially exposed in such an event is essential in order to deal effectively with the consequences of the event and to minimize its impact, by accurately placing individuals into appropriate treatment classes. The meeting should be especially well-timed, occurring two years after the previous meeting on the subject in a field in which there has been a high level of interest, with the development of many unique and promising approaches for meeting an extremely important and unsolved problem. The high level of interest and importance is indicated by the range of national and international governmental agencies and organizations that are involved in the field and whose members have participated in the prior meeting and have made commitments to participate in this meeting. T he venue and organization of the meeting should facilitate strong communications via a "Gordon Conference like" arrangement with shared meals and recreational opportunities and a program that stresses discussion and presentation of research in progress.

说明（由申请人提供）：请求支持，以促进年轻研究人员参加 2008 年 9 月 7 日至 11 日在达特茅斯（新罕布什尔州汉诺威）举行的生物剂量测定会议，以应对意外的电离辐射暴露。会议的目的是提供一个场所，讨论意外辐射暴露的生物剂量测定的最新方法，同时还提供了 问题以及参与处理这些问题的机构实体。总体目标和期望是，会议将通过向该领域的领先工作者提供其他团体对最新技术的评估、对其解决问题的方法的批判性反馈以及通过合作和协作加强协同进一步发展来推进生物剂量测定的发展。通过与专家和规划者进行互动，从处理该问题的总体联邦战略到试图开发在地方一级处理此类事件可能导致的医疗问题所需的基础设施和专业知识的医生，将极大地促进这一目标的实现。鉴于恐怖分子煽动的重大辐射事件的潜在威胁，这是一项至关重要且目前尚未满足的需求。测量在此类事件中可能受到辐射的个人所接受的辐射剂量的能力至关重要，以便通过准确地将个人纳入适当的治疗类别来有效处理事件的后果并最大程度地减少其影响。 这次会议的时机应该特别好，是在上一次会议召开两年后召开的，该主题是一个引起高度关注的领域，为解决一个极其重要且尚未解决的问题制定了许多独特且有希望的方法。参与该领域的众多国家和国际政府机构和组织及其成员参加了上一次会议并承诺参加本次会议，表明了对该领域的高度兴趣和重要性。时间 会议的地点和组织应通过“类似戈登会议”的安排促进强有力的沟通，包括共享膳食和娱乐机会以及强调讨论和介绍正在进行的研究的计划。
