DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This grant application is to request support for the 41st-45th annual International Narcotics Research Conferences (INRC). The 41st meeting is to be held in Malmo, Sweden from July 11-16, 2010, and will be a satellite meeting to the IUPHAR meeting. The 42nd INRC, which will be a joint meeting with CPDD, will be held in Hollywood, Florida, USA. Plans are underway to finalize venues for the 43rd-45th INRCs. These conferences have been, for many years, the most prestigious international meetings for the dissemination and exchange of information about biomedical research on opiate drugs and the endogenous opioid system. The topics have ranged from molecular mechanisms to behavioral studies and clinical findings. Support is requested primarily for partial travel support to enable young scientists, i.e. graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty, to participate in the Conference. Invited symposium speakers, not normally INRC participants, will receive partial support. Funds requested for administrative and meeting expenses represent ~10% of the total requested funds. The plenary speakers for this year's meeting are: Prof. Tomas Hockfelt (Karolinska, Inst, Sweden), Prof. Tony Yaksh (UCSF, USA) and Prof Jorgen Engel (G"teborg Univ., Sweden). Ten symposia will cover a wide range of topics as described in the application ranging from novel opioid ligands, epigenetics of opioid peptides and receptors, opioids in neuropathic pain, alcohol & gambling addictions and opioid-cannabinoid interactions. A number of relevant contributed papers will be chosen for oral presentation by junior investigators at each symposium. There will be two poster sessions, at which there is always much exchange and discussion. A Data-Blitz session for young scientists is also planned. Future INRC meetings will follow a similar format. Whenever possible, we plan to overlap with other conferences of mutual interest. For example, this year an overlapping day with the International Cannabinoid Research Society meeting in Sweden is planned and next year a 3 day overlap with the College on Problems of Drug Dependence in USA is planned. For participants from many countries, INRC is their only chance to meet and exchange ideas in their field. We feel that participation by many pre- and post- doctoral trainees has resulted, and is likely to continue to result, in recruiting promising scientists to a career of drug abuse research. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Drug addiction is an increasing health concern. The 41st-45th International Narcotics Research Conferences provide opportunities for investigators in the field of drug abuse research to meet and exchange ideas about latest developments in this important area of research.

描述（由申请人提供）：此资助申请是为了请求支持第41 - 45届年度国际麻醉品研究会议（INRC）。第41次会议将于2010年7月11日至16日在瑞典马尔莫举行，并将是国际人道主义法和救灾研究联合会会议的卫星会议。第42届INRC，这将是一个联合会议与CPDD，将在好莱坞，佛罗里达，美国举行。目前正在计划最后确定第43 - 45届国际新闻中心的地点。多年来，这些会议一直是传播和交流阿片类药物和内源性阿片系统生物医学研究信息的最负盛名的国际会议。主题范围从分子机制到行为研究和临床发现。请求提供的支助主要是部分旅费支助，以使青年科学家，即研究生、博士后研究员和初级教员能够参加会议。应邀的专题讨论会发言者，通常不是INRC的与会者，将得到部分支助。行政和会议费用申请资金占申请资金总额的10%左右。今年会议的全体发言人是：Tomas Hockfelt教授（瑞典卡罗林斯卡学院）、Tony Yaksh教授（美国加州大学旧金山分校）和Jorgen Engel教授（哥德堡大学，瑞典）。十个专题讨论会将涵盖广泛的主题，如申请中所述，从新型阿片配体，阿片肽和受体的表观遗传学，神经性疼痛中的阿片类药物，酒精和赌博成瘾以及阿片类药物-大麻素相互作用。在每次专题讨论会上，初级研究人员将选择一些相关的投稿论文进行口头介绍。将有两个海报会议，在那里总是有很多交流和讨论。还计划为年轻科学家举办一次数据闪电会议。国际核管制委员会今后的会议将采用类似的形式。只要有可能，我们计划与共同感兴趣的其他会议同时举行。例如，今年计划与瑞典国际大麻研究学会会议重叠一天，明年计划与美国药物依赖问题学院重叠3天。对于来自许多国家的参与者来说，INRC是他们在各自领域会面和交流想法的唯一机会。我们认为，许多博士前和博士后受训人员的参与已导致并可能继续导致招募有前途的科学家从事药物滥用研究。 公共卫生相关性：吸毒成瘾是一个日益严重的健康问题。第41 - 45届国际麻醉品研究会议为药物滥用研究领域的研究人员提供了机会，就这一重要研究领域的最新发展交流意见。
