DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Gordon Research Conference on 'Biology of Host-Parasite Interactions' Salve Regina University, Newport RI, June 22 - 27, 2008. The 2008 Host-parasite Interactions GRC conference will focus on the latest findings on molecular aspects of protozoan organisms and how these relate to human diseases such as (but not limited to) malaria, toxoplasmosis, African and American trypanosomiasis, leishmaniasis, trichomoniasis, giardiasis and entamoebiasis. The aim of the meeting is to define current state of this dynamic and exciting field and to discuss and set future research agendas. The focus on human diseases and the identification, validation and characterisation of new therapeutic targets clearly places the conference within the mission of the NIH and particulalry of the NIAID. Participation by graduate students and post-docs is particularly encouraged and a third of the talks will be selected from the abstracts. Some sholarships for graduate student/post-doc attendance will be made available and individuals from minority groups are encouraged to apply. This conference promises to adhere to the spirit of the Gordon Research Conferences by promoting the free and friendly exchange of information and ideas. The key areas to be covered are: Vector Biology (Discussion Leader: Jose' Ribeiro (NIH) Parasite Development (Discussion Leader: Stephen Beverley, WASHU, St. Louis) Epigenetic Regulation and gene expression (Discussion Leader: Gloria Rudenko, Oxford, UK) Invasion and Organelle Biogenesis (Discussion Leader; Dominique Soldati, Geneva, Switzerland) The "OMICS": Interfacing function and genomics (David Roos, U-Penn) The Parasite RNA World (Discussion Leader:) Shulamit Michaeli (Bar-Ilan University, Israel) Biochemistry and Drug Discovery (Discussion Leader: Margaret Phillips, UT-Southwestern) Hijacking the Host Cell (Discussion Leader: David Sibley,WASHU, St. Louis) Frontiers in parasite imaging (Discussion Leader: Markus Engstler, Munich, Germany) The 2008 Host-parasite Interactions GRC conference will focus on the latest findings on molecular aspects of protozoan organisms and how these relate to human diseases such as (but not limited to) malaria, toxoplasmosis, African and American trypanosomiasis, leishmaniasis, trichomoniasis, giardiasis and entamoebiasis. The aim of the meeting is to define current state of this dynamic and exciting field and to discuss and set future research agendas. The focus on human diseases and the identification, validation and characterization of new therapeutic targets clearly places the conference within the mission of the NIH and particularly of the NIAID.

描述（由申请人提供）： Gordon Research Conference on 'Biology of Host-Parasite Interactions' Salve Regina University, Newport RI, June 22 - 27, 2008. The 2008 Host-parasite Interactions GRC conference will focus on the latest findings on molecular aspects of protozoan organisms and how these relate to human diseases such as (but not limited to) malaria, toxoplasmosis, African and American trypanosomiasis, leishmaniasis,滴虫病，贾第幼虫病和肠胃病。会议的目的是定义这个动态和令人兴奋的领域的当前状态，并讨论并设定未来的研究议程。对人类疾病的关注以及新的治疗靶标的识别，验证和表征显然将会议置于NIH的使命和NIAID的尤其范围之内。特别鼓励研究生和毕业后的参与，三分之一的会谈将从摘要中选择。将提供一些研究生/博士后出勤的人，并鼓励来自少数群体的个人申请。这次会议有望通过促进信息和思想的自由交流来遵守戈登研究会议的精神。要涵盖的关键领域是：矢量生物学（讨论负责人：Jose'Ribeiro（NIH）寄生虫发展（讨论负责人：Stephen Beverley，Stephen Beverley，St. Louis，St. Louis）表观遗传调节和基因表达（讨论领导者：Gloria Rudenko，Oxford，UK，英国）入侵和组织的生物基因（讨论领导者； genomics (David Roos, U-Penn) The Parasite RNA World (Discussion Leader:) Shulamit Michaeli (Bar-Ilan University, Israel) Biochemistry and Drug Discovery (Discussion Leader: Margaret Phillips, UT-Southwestern) Hijacking the Host Cell (Discussion Leader: David Sibley,WASHU, St. Louis) Frontiers in parasite imaging (Discussion Leader: Markus Engstler, Munich, Germany) The 2008宿主 - 寄生虫相互作用GRC会议将重点介绍有关原生动物生物分子方面的最新发现，以及这些与人类疾病的关系，例如（但不限于）疟疾，弓形虫病，非洲和美国锥虫病，Leishmanasis，Leishmaniasis，trichomoniasis，trichomoniasis，giardiasis and giardiasis and intamebiiasis和intamebiasis。会议的目的是定义这个动态和令人兴奋的领域的当前状态，并讨论并设定未来的研究议程。对人类疾病的关注以及新的治疗靶标的识别，验证和表征显然使会议范围内属于NIH的使命，尤其是NIAID的任务。
