2nd North American meeting by CIS devoted to primary immune deficiency.

临床免疫学会（CIS）成立于1986年，致力于促进临床免疫学科学和实践的发展。CIS的使命是促进临床免疫学的教育、转化研究和新的治疗方法，以促进免疫和炎症疾病患者的卓越护理。2012年独联体年会：原发性免疫缺陷病北美会议，将于2012年5月17日至20日在芝加哥举行，代表了独联体的一个重大的新的教育倡议。这项R13赠款提案要求支持为在该领域工作的年轻医生和科学家提供30笔旅行赠款。实习生参加年会是必不可少的，并通过优秀的教育计划和旅行奖励来培养。旅行获奖者的教育机会包括杰出的全体会议，最先进的研讨会和早餐座谈会。学员将在口头摘要和海报会议上积极发言。年会的预期规模约为500名与会者，非常适合让年轻科学家接触该领域的领导者，同时也为学员提供机会，在原发性免疫缺陷症的首要会议上介绍他们的工作。NIH对年会的支持将使免疫学领域的培训生能够接受教育，建立网络和专业发展。 公共卫生相关性：临床免疫学会（CIS）将于2012年5月17日至20日在美国举办2012年CIS年会：原发性免疫缺陷病北美会议。目标是汇集一个由大约500名新老医生科学家组成的不断扩大的网络，为促进美国原发性免疫缺陷症的工作建立一个全新的场所。在这个R13补助金，我们要求资助30个博士后研究员参加会议，并在口头会议上介绍他们选定的摘要旅行奖。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Clinical Immunology Society (CIS), established in 1986, is devoted to fostering developments in the science and practice of clinical immunology. The mission of CIS is to facilitate education, translational research and novel approaches to therapy in clinical immunology to promote excellence in the care of patients with immunologic and inflammatory disorders. The 2012 CIS Annual Meeting: Primary Immune Deficiency Diseases North American Conference, to be held May 17-20, 2012 in Chicago, represents a major new educational initiative of CIS. This R13 grant proposal requests support to provide 30 travel grants to young physicians and scientists working in this field. Trainee participation in th Annual Meeting is essential and is fostered by an outstanding educational program and travel awards. Educational opportunities for travel awardees include outstanding plenary sessions, state-of-the-art workshops, and breakfast symposia sessions. Trainees will be active presenters in oral abstract and poster sessions. The anticipated size of the Annual Meeting is approximately 500 participants, which is ideally suited to expose young scientists to leaders in the field, yet provide opportunities for trainees to present their work at a premier conference in primary immune deficiency. Support from the NIH for the Annual Meeting will allow education, networking, and professional advancement of trainees in the field of immunology. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The Clinical Immunology Society (CIS) will host the 2012 CIS Annual Meeting: Primary Immune Deficiency Diseases North American Conference in the United States May 17- 20, 2012. The goal is to bring together an expanding network of about 500 established and new physician scientists, to foster an entirely new venue for promoting work in Primary Immune Deficiency in the United States. In this R13 grant, we request funding for 30 travel awards for post-doctoral fellows to attend the conference and present their selected abstracts during oral sessions.
