DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We request partial support for the 2012 Society for Research on Biological Rhythms Conference, to be held at the Sandestin Resort in Destin FL from May 19-24, 2012. The meeting, which attracts 500-600 attendees, will focus on the breadth of topics that represent key research areas in chronobiology, including molecular biology, genetics, cell biology, neurobiology, physiology, metabolism, cancer, aging, immunology, behavior, sleep, mathematical modeling, and applied research. The role of the clock in human health is vast; the field is rapidly advancing and reaching the point where basic and applied research is beginning to coalesce. To meet our goals of stimulating translational research and new collaborations, the meeting will feature 18 symposia of invited speakers, and 12 slide sessions (with speakers selected from submitted abstracts), that combine the best of basic clock research with those that translate this information into human applications. This meeting is needed to fit the explosion of new data into mechanistic models of the clock, and to translate this work into applications for human health. The symposium speakers and session chairs are recognized leaders in their fields, and were chosen to represent our breadth and realize this goal. Special attention has been given to cultural and geographical diversity, as well as gender balance. We aim to improve this diversity further through advertisement of the meeting at minority institutions, and with NIH funding, to provide offers of travel awards to graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and underrepresented groups. To further encourage participation, these groups will be given priority status when selecting presenters for the slide sessions. All meeting abstracts will be made available to the public on the SRBR web site. Training aspects of the meeting are fully developed, and include a highly subscribed one-day training day for students and postdocs, which will precede the main meeting.

描述(由申请者提供)：我们请求部分支持2012年生物节律研究学会会议，会议将于2012年5月19-24日在佛罗里达州德斯汀的桑德斯汀度假村举行。这次会议吸引了500-600人参加，将集中讨论代表时间生物学关键研究领域的广泛主题，包括分子生物学、遗传学、细胞生物学、神经生物学、生理学、新陈代谢、癌症、衰老、免疫学、行为学、睡眠、数学建模和应用研究。时钟在人类健康中的作用是巨大的；该领域正在迅速发展，并达到了基础研究和应用研究开始结合的地步。为了实现我们促进翻译研究和新合作的目标，会议将有18个受邀演讲者座谈会和12个幻灯片会议(演讲者从提交的摘要中挑选出来)，将基础时钟研究的最佳成果与将这些信息转化为人类应用的信息相结合。这次会议是为了将新数据的爆炸性增长融入时钟的机械模型，并将这项工作转化为对人类健康的应用。研讨会发言人和会议主席是各自领域公认的领导者，他们被选为代表我们的广度和实现这一目标的代表。对文化和地理多样性以及性别平衡给予了特别关注。我们的目标是通过在少数族裔机构宣传会议，并利用NIH的资金，为研究生、博士后研究员和代表性不足的群体提供旅行奖励，进一步改善这种多样性。为了进一步鼓励参与，在选择幻灯片会议的演示者时，这些小组将被给予优先地位。所有会议摘要将在SRBR网站上向公众提供。会议的培训方面得到了充分的发展，包括在主要会议之前为学生和博士后举办的为期一天的高认购日培训。
