DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Project Summary/Abstract We request partial support for the 6th National Meeting of the American Society for Matrix Biology (ASMB), to be held at the Sheraton Marina, San Diego on 11-14 November, 2012 as a joint meeting with the Society for Glycobiology (SfG). The 6th ASMB meeting builds on the success of the previous meeting, which drew over 400 participants from diverse fields in academia and industry and spent 4 days in intense discussion to exchange ideas within the broad topic of matrix biology. We intend to expand on that success. To this end we have assembled a plenary program consisting of distinguished scientists from diverse areas that impinge directly or indirectly on extracellular matrix (ECM) biology and glycobiology. The meeting will open with a Keynote Address by Dr. Carolyn Bertozzi, a member of the National Academy of Sciences, who will speak on cell surface interactions that contribute to human health and disease. The following 3 days will consist of six Plenary Sessions focused on topics such as Immunology, Biomaterials and ECM Engineering, Progenitor Cells, the ECM in Development, Genetic Diseases, ECM Synthesis and Assembly, and six blocks of three abstract-driven Concurrent Sessions. Sessions will include speakers from diverse fields, including glycobiology, to promote cross-fertilization of ideas. The ASMB is a unique convocation of the varied, specialized disciplines that have developed out of matrix biology. Unlike large society meetings, the ASMB meeting has a dominant theme, and unlike symposia it strives to encompass all permutations on this theme, including emerging issues, not- ready-for-prime-time topics, and exciting new areas of research. In particular, this meeting will emphasize state of the art technologies that can answer questions pertinent to ECM biology and pathology that could not be tackled with existing methodologies. In summary, the ASMB/SfG meeting provides an exclusive opportunity for engaged scientists to meet in a concentrated forum. This is true not only for established investigators but also for young scientists and students, including minorities, on whose participation we place great emphasis. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Narrative The ASMB meeting provides an exclusive opportunity for scientists interested in the extracellular matrix to meet in a focused forum. This meeting places great emphasis on the congregation and communication of young scientists and students, including minorities, with established investigators.

描述（由申请人提供）：项目摘要/摘要我们请求部分支持美国基质生物学协会（ASMB）第六届全国会议，将于2012年11月11日至14日在圣地亚哥喜来登码头举行，作为与糖生物学协会（SfG）的联席会议。第六届ASMB会议是在上一次会议成功的基础上召开的，该会议吸引了来自学术界和工业界不同领域的400多名与会者，并在为期4天的激烈讨论中就基质生物学的广泛主题交换了意见。我们打算扩大这一成功。为此，我们已经组装了一个全体会议计划，由来自不同领域的杰出科学家组成，这些科学家直接或间接地影响细胞外基质（ECM）生物学和糖生物学。会议将以美国国家科学院院士Carolyn Bertozzi博士的主题演讲开始，他将就有助于人类健康和疾病的细胞表面相互作用发表演讲。接下来的3天将包括六次全体会议，重点讨论免疫学，生物材料和ECM工程，祖细胞，ECM开发，遗传疾病，ECM合成和组装等主题，以及三个抽象驱动的并行会议的六个模块。会议将包括来自不同领域的演讲者，包括糖生物学，以促进思想的交叉施肥。ASMB是一个独特的召集各种各样的，专门的学科，已经发展出矩阵生物学。与大型社会会议不同，ASMB会议有一个主导主题，与专题讨论会不同，它努力涵盖这个主题的所有排列，包括新出现的问题，尚未准备好的黄金时间主题，以及令人兴奋的新研究领域。特别是，这次会议将强调最先进的技术，可以回答有关ECM生物学和病理学的问题，不能用现有的方法来解决。总之，ASMB/SfG会议为从事科学工作的科学家提供了一个在集中论坛上聚会的独家机会。这不仅适用于资深调查人员，也适用于青年科学家和学生，包括少数群体，我们非常重视他们的参与。 公共卫生相关性：ASMB会议为对细胞外基质感兴趣的科学家提供了一个独特的机会，可以在一个有重点的论坛上见面。这次会议非常重视青年科学家和学生，包括少数群体，与知名调查人员的聚会和交流。
