DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Funds are requested to partially cover the cost of planning, organizing, publicizing, and hosting the 29th Annual Symposium on Nonhuman Primate (NHP) Models for AIDS to be held October 25-28, 2011, 2011 at the Bell Harbor International Conference Center in Seattle, WA. This meeting has been a premier forum for presentation and exchange for the most recent scientific advances in AIDS research utilizing the nonhuman primate model. It is expected that more than 200 scientists from the United States and other countries will attend. The symposium will consist of 4 half-day scientific sessions and a poster session. The sessions will cover topics in virology, vaccines/immunology, pathogenesis/therapeutics, and primate genetics and genomics. Each session will include invited speakers who will give a 30 minute presentation. Select sessions will include a round table discussion. Invited speakers will moderate the sessions and guide discussions. A Keynote Speaker and a Banquet Speaker will address the broader issues of scientific interest and public health concerns. The scientific program will be organized by the Scientific Program Committee, consisting of 8 local and 8 non-local members, all leaders in fields of expertise, representing a broad geographic and institutional distribution. Criteria for selection of oral presentations will include relevance of the topic, originality, and quality of information in the abstract. Those giving oral presentations will be invited to submit a manuscript to be published in the Journal of Medical Primatology. A poster session will include presentations that cannot be accommodated in one of the platform sessions. The conference will also include an opening day reception, a reception with the poster sessions, and a reception and banquet on the last evening. To take advantage of the expertise assembled and to further the educational mission of this symposium, a tutorial session, aimed primarily at high school science teachers and graduate students, will be held. This session will consist of overviews on HIV/AIDS and related NHP research presented by invited speakers, followed by discussions. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE (provided by applicant): HIV and its resulting disease, AIDS, is a critical threat to public health in the United States and internationally. This symposium contributes to the knowledge base that will ultimately result in a vaccine to prevent transmission of HIV and treatments for those currently living with AIDS.

描述（由申请人提供）：资金要求部分支付计划，组织，宣传和主办第29届非人灵长类动物（NHP）艾滋病模型年度研讨会的费用，该研讨会将于2011年10月25日至28日在华盛顿州西雅图的贝尔港国际会议中心举行。这次会议是一个主要的论坛，介绍和交流利用非人灵长类动物模型进行艾滋病研究的最新科学进展。预计将有来自美国和其他国家的200多名科学家参加。研讨会将包括4个半天的科学会议和一个海报会议。会议将涵盖病毒学，疫苗/免疫学，发病机理/治疗学，灵长类动物遗传学和基因组学的主题。每个会议将包括特邀演讲者谁将给30分钟的介绍。部分会议将包括圆桌讨论。特邀发言人将主持会议并指导讨论。一位主旨发言人和一位宴会发言人将讨论更广泛的科学兴趣和公共卫生问题。科学计划将由科学计划委员会组织，该委员会由8名当地成员和8名非当地成员组成，他们都是专业领域的领导者，代表着广泛的地理和机构分布。选择口头报告的标准将包括主题的相关性，原创性和摘要中信息的质量。口头报告的人将被邀请提交一份手稿，发表在医学灵长类动物学杂志上。海报会议将包括无法在某个平台会议上进行的专题介绍。会议还将包括开幕日招待会，海报会议招待会，以及最后一晚的招待会和宴会。为了利用所聚集的专门知识，并进一步完成这次研讨会的教育使命，将举行一次辅导会议，主要针对高中科学教师和研究生。本次会议将包括由特邀演讲者介绍的艾滋病毒/艾滋病和相关国家卫生计划研究的概述，然后进行讨论。 公共卫生相关性（由申请人提供）：艾滋病毒及其导致的疾病艾滋病是对美国和国际公共卫生的严重威胁。本次研讨会有助于知识基础，最终将导致疫苗，以防止艾滋病毒的传播和治疗那些目前患有艾滋病。
