DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Frontiers in Reproduction (FIR) is a 6-week long course held every summer at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole MA. FIR is a dynamic and evolving entity offering a series of daily lectures on cutting edge topics, followed by extensive discussions, laboratory research, workshops and informal seminars. Since it inception in 1998 FIR has aimed to train beginning independent scientists, advanced postdoctoral fellows in the basic or clinical sciences, as well as graduate students who are committed to clinical and basic research careers in the Reproductive Sciences. FIR is directed by a Board of Scientific Counselors composed of scientists who direct basic or translational research programs in the Reproductive Sciences and represent the human reproduction subspecialties of Reproductive Endocrinology and Maternal-Fetal Medicine. The FIR course itself is divided into three sections and organized by one lead director and three section directors. Section 1 covers signal transduction and gene expression in reproductive endocrinology. Section 2 covers mouse transgenesis, fertilization, implantation, and embryo-maternal interactions. Section 3 covers gametogenesis and fertilization, and preimplantation and peri-implantation development. The course directors and the participating faculty and lecturers are selected because of their leadership positions in the Reproductive Sciences. FIR ends with a 2-day symposium featuring lectures by 2 or 3 outstanding reproductive scientists followed by research presentations from all current students and selected alumni. The overall purpose of FIR is to train the next generation of reproductive scientists and to promote collaborations and mentorship among junior and senior reproductive scientists. FIR has now been continuously held for 12 years and all indications are that we have been successful in attaining these goals. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Although we need to curb the growth of the world population we also need to ensure that individuals have the freedom to decide if they want to reproduce as well as when and how often they want to reproduce. Continued support for research and training in the Reproductive Sciences is needed to address these important issues and the Frontiers in Reproduction (FIR) course plays an important role in this endeavor

描述（由申请人提供）：生殖前沿（FIR）是一个为期6周的课程，每年夏天在伍兹霍尔马海洋生物实验室举行。FIR是一个充满活力和不断发展的实体，提供一系列关于前沿主题的日常讲座，然后进行广泛的讨论，实验室研究，研讨会和非正式研讨会。自1998年成立以来，FIR一直致力于培养独立的科学家，基础或临床科学的高级博士后研究员，以及致力于生殖科学临床和基础研究事业的研究生。FIR由科学顾问委员会领导，该委员会由指导生殖科学基础或转化研究项目的科学家组成，并代表生殖内分泌学和母胎医学的人类生殖子专业。飞行情报培训班本身分为三个部分，由一名主任和三名主任组织。第1部分包括生殖内分泌学中的信号转导和基因表达。第2节涵盖小鼠转基因、受精、着床和胚胎-母体相互作用。第3节包括配子发生和受精，以及植入前和植入期发育。课程主任和参与教师和讲师被选中，因为他们在生殖科学的领导地位。FIR结束了为期2天的研讨会，由2或3名杰出的生殖科学家进行讲座，然后由所有在校学生和选定的校友进行研究演示。FIR的总体目标是培养下一代生殖科学家，促进初级和高级生殖科学家之间的合作和指导。飞行情报会议已经连续举行了12年，所有迹象表明，我们成功地实现了这些目标。 公共卫生关系：虽然我们需要遏制世界人口的增长，但我们也需要确保个人有自由决定他们是否想要生育以及何时和多久生育一次。为了解决这些重要问题，需要继续支持生殖科学的研究和培训，生殖前沿（FIR）课程在这奋进发挥着重要作用
