39th Annual Scientific Meeting of the Infectious Diseases Society for Obstetrics

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请的理由是支持妇产科传染病学会 (IDSOG) 年会。 IDSOG 成立于 1973 年，旨在汇集对传染病科学研究感兴趣的女性健康领域的专业人士。年度科学会议为传染病领域的专家提供了一个机会，分享影响妇女健康的知识，特别是当前新出现的相关疾病。这次会议将促进富有成效的思想交流，这将使受训者和年轻研究人员以及高级研究人员和临床医生能够在学术环境中展示他们的工作的环境永久存在。这是目前唯一专门致力于传染病及其对妇女生殖影响的活跃研究学会，因此支持对于继续这项科学研究议程至关重要。我们的主要目标之一是以性别和种族包容/平衡的方式吸引、招募、指导和培养下一代受过学术培训的生殖传染病研究人员和专家。会议计划中描述了实现这一目标的计划。简而言之，我们计划利用本申请中的资金为初级研究人员提供 10 项奖学金（1/2 给少数族裔女性参与者） 参加年会，并在会议上为初级研究人员举办专门的培训课程，以增强 IDSOG 实现这一目标的有效性。 公共卫生相关性：IDSOG 的主要目标之一是以性别和种族包容/平衡的方式吸引、招募、指导和培养下一代受过学术培训的生殖传染病调查人员和专家，以改善当前和未来妇女的公共卫生状况。会议计划中描述了实现这一目标的计划。简而言之，我们计划利用本次申请中的资金为参加年会的初级研究员提供 10 项奖学金（1/2 给少数族裔女性与会者），并在会议上为初级研究员举办专门的实习生课程，以增强 IDSOG 实现这一目标的有效性。

Description (as provided by the applicant): The rationale of this application is to support the Annual Meeting of the Infectious Disease Society for Obstetrics and Gynecology (IDSOG). IDSOG was created in 1973 to bring together professionals in the field of women's health who are interested in the scientific study of infectious diseases. The annual scientific meeting presents an opportunity for experts in the areas of infectious diseases to share knowledge that impacts women's health, in particular current emerging diseases of relevance. This meeting will promote a productive exchange of ideas, which will perpetuate the environment in which trainees and young investigators as well as senior investigators and clinicians can present their work in an academic setting. This is currently the only active investigative society dedicated specifically on infectious diseases and their reproductive implications among women, so support is crucial to continuing this scientific research agenda. One of our major goals is attract, recrui, mentor, and develop the next generation of academically-trained reproductive infectious diseases investigators and specialists in a gender and racially inclusive/balanced manner. Plans for this goal are delineated in the conference plan. Briefly, we plan to use the funding in this application to offer 10 scholarships (1/2 to minority female attendees) for junior investigators to attend the annual meeting as well as having a specific trainee session for junior investigators at the meeting to augment IDSOG's effectiveness towards this goal. Public Health Relevance: One of IDSOG's major goals is attract, recruit, mentor, and develop the next generation of academically-trained reproductive infectious diseases investigators and specialists in a gender and racially inclusive/balanced manner for the current and future improvement in public health among women. Plans for this goal are delineated in the conference plan. Briefly, we plan to use the funding in this application to offer 10 scholarships (1/2 to minority female attendees) for junior investigators to attend the annual meeting as well as having a specific trainee session for junior investigators at the meeting to augment IDSOG's effectiveness towards this goal.
