DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal requests partial support for an internationally attended meeting on Ion Channels, as part of the Gordon Research Conference series, to be held at Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Massachusetts, July 8 - 13, 2012. The broad and long-term goal of the conference is to increase our understanding of the fundamental structure, function and physiological roles of ion channels as well as their dysfunction in disease. The specific aims of this meeting will be to convene 40 speakers and discussion leaders that represent critical areas of ion channel research with a maximum total of 180 participants for a five- day meeting in a relatively secluded setting. The program will have nine sessions that broadly address current issues in ion channel mechanisms in human health and disease. In addition, four poster sessions will permit all participants to contribute their wor to these topics. The significance of this application is that the Ion Channels Gordon Research Conference is a critical component of the established meetings that fertilize ideas and research in the international community of ion channel biologists. Indeed, the small size and intensive discussions engendered by the Ion Channels GRC make it uniquely important for the catalysis of new ideas and directions among the participants. The health relatedness of this application is that the discussions will define questions that require experimental resolution in a wide variety o areas that affect human development and health.

描述(由申请人提供)：本提案请求部分支持将于2012年7月8日至13日在马萨诸塞州南哈德利的芒特霍利奥克学院举行的戈登研究会议系列会议的一部分，该会议将在国际上参加的离子通道会议。会议的广泛和长期目标是增加我们对离子通道的基本结构、功能和生理作用以及它们在疾病中的功能障碍的了解。本次会议的具体目标将是召集代表离子通道研究关键领域的40位演讲者和讨论领袖，最多180人参加，在相对隐蔽的环境中举行为期五天的会议。该计划将有九次会议，广泛讨论当前人类健康和疾病中离子通道机制的问题。此外，四人会议将允许所有参与者为这些主题贡献自己的力量。这项申请的意义在于，离子通道戈登研究会议是国际离子通道生物学家社区中培养思想和研究的既定会议的关键组成部分。事实上，离子通道GRC所产生的小范围和密集的讨论使其对于在参与者中催化新的想法和方向具有独特的重要性。这一应用程序与健康相关的是，讨论将确定需要在影响人类发展和健康的广泛领域进行实验解决的问题。
