DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal requests partial support for the 2008 Federation of American Societies of Experimental Biology (FASEB) Summer Conference on the "Biology of the Immune System", which has been held every other summer for the past 20 years. The purpose of the meeting is to bring together basic immunologists from academia and the pharmaceutical industry at the professorial, post-doctoral and pre-doctoral levels to present and discuss cutting-edge research in basic immunology. The meeting will focus on new discoveries concerning the organs, cells, and molecules that play key roles in innate and adaptive immunity. The conference should also be attractive to savvy clinical researchers who know that the next generation of therapies will come from the kind of basic science discoveries presented at this conference. The time-tested format will consist of oral presentations by international leaders in the field and poster presentations by other attendees. A major strength of the meeting is that the participants stay in a secluded resort and share meals for the length of the conference. This total immersion atmosphere is very conducive to in depth discussions and collaboration-building for attendees at all levels. This conference will serve as the definitive small meeting with a broad focus on basic immunology in 2008. The 2008 FASEB Summer Conference on the "Biology of the Immune System" is relevant to the public health because it will serve as a forum for the exchange of ideas among leading scientists about basic aspects of the immune response. These ideas are the engines that will drive the development of more effective vaccines and treatments for allergy, autoimmunity, and transplant rejection.

描述（由申请人提供）： 该提案要求为2008年美国实验生物学学会联合会（FASEB）关于“免疫系统生物学”的夏季会议提供部分支持，该会议在过去20年中每隔一个夏天举行一次。会议的目的是汇集来自学术界和制药行业的基础免疫学家，教授，博士后和博士前水平，介绍和讨论基础免疫学的前沿研究。会议将重点关注在先天和适应性免疫中发挥关键作用的器官，细胞和分子的新发现。这次会议也应该吸引精明的临床研究人员，他们知道下一代疗法将来自这次会议上提出的基础科学发现。经过时间考验的形式将包括该领域国际领导人的口头介绍和其他与会者的海报介绍。会议的一个主要优点是与会者呆在一个僻静的度假胜地，在会议期间共享膳食。这种完全沉浸式的氛围非常有利于各级与会者进行深入讨论和建立合作。这次会议将作为2008年最重要的小型会议，广泛关注基础免疫学。2008年FASEB关于“免疫系统生物学”的夏季会议与公共卫生有关，因为它将成为领先科学家就免疫反应的基本方面交流想法的论坛。这些想法是推动开发更有效的疫苗和治疗过敏，自身免疫和移植排斥的引擎。
