DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Vasculata-2012 will be held in Nashville, Tennessee from July 25-28, 2012 with Vanderbilt University School of Medicine serving as the lead host institution in conjunction with University of Kentucky College of Medicine and Meharry Medical College. Vasculata-2012 will fulfill the following specific aims: Aim 1: Inspire young investigator from a variety of disciplines to enter the field of vascular biology by providing trainees with an introductory learning experience. Aim 2: Orient new investigators to the breadth and depth of the frontiers of knowledge of vascular biology through state-of-the-art presentations and scientific interchange with leading investigators. Aim 3: Enhancing exposure and understanding of the latest experimental approaches employed in vascular biology by a combination of didactic lectures and hands-on workshops. Aim 4: To allow young investigators to interact with established scientists in vascular biology via poster presentations and informal interactions. The Vasculata-2012 conference will be a distinctive addition to the Vasculata series by: 1) providing a wide range of relevant research topics ranging from basic concepts to clinical research, 2) introducing attendees to fields newly recognized to impact vascular biology, 3) providing workshops that will provide the trainees with firsthand experience with methods relevant to vascular biology. The faculty for Vasculata 2012 consists of core faculty from the three sponsoring institutions and carefully selected experts from other institutions. These faculty members include investigators from varied disciplines including developmental biology, matrix biology, vascular immunology, clinical science and genetic epidemiology. Vasculata 2012 will also emphasize new information regarding vascular diseases in minorities and women, and emerging vascular diseases in the third world. Overall, the Vasculata-2012 conference promises to be an exciting and uniquely rich research training experience. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The public health and clinical impact of vascular diseases such as hypertension, stroke and coronary heart disease are the major causes of death and disability in our nation. The scientific discipline of vascular biology remains a relatively young field with a small critica mass of scientific experts trained in the discipline. The Vasculata research training conference series serves as a critical national resource to the scientific community by providing an invaluable forum for research training and career development for the next generation of biomedical scientists in vascular biology and related fields.

描述（由申请人提供）：Vasculata-2012将于2012年7月25日至28日在田纳西州纳什维尔举行，范德比尔特大学医学院与肯塔基大学医学院和梅哈里医学院联合担任主要主办机构。Vasculata-2012将实现以下具体目标：目标1：通过为学员提供入门学习经验，激励来自不同学科的年轻研究者进入血管生物学领域。目标2：通过与领先的研究人员进行最先进的演示和科学交流，使新研究人员了解血管生物学知识前沿的广度和深度。目标3：通过教学讲座和实践研讨会的结合，加强对血管生物学最新实验方法的了解和理解。目标4：通过海报展示和非正式互动，让年轻的研究者与血管生物学领域的知名科学家进行互动。血管-2012会议将是血管系列的一个独特的补充：1)提供广泛的相关研究主题，从基本概念到临床研究，2)向与会者介绍新认识的影响血管生物学的领域，3)提供讲习班，将为学员提供与血管生物学相关的方法的第一手经验。2012年Vasculata的师资队伍由来自三个赞助机构的核心师资和来自其他机构的精心挑选的专家组成。这些教师
