DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Hershey Conference on Developmental Brain Injury was started in 1997 and has grown into a popular, well-attended international conference of physician-scientists and basic scientists, including a large proportion of trainees. It is withot peer in the field of Developmental Brain Injury. The overall goal of the 2014, 9th Hershey Conference is to once again bring together internationally known clinical and basic scientists committed to studying and treating the neonatal brain. The overall theme in 2014 will focus on mechanisms of cell death and plasticity following brain injury in developing animal models and in humans. The basic approach remains the same. Specifically the three objectives are: 1) application of the latest research in basic science to the clinical questions; 2) recognition and discussion of ongoing controversy and progress toward resolution in developmental brain injury research; 3) identification of future directions for the developmental brain injury field. The objectives of this R13 are: 1) to provide partial support for the invited speakers, many of whom are outside of the developmental brain injury field but will contribute significantly to the educational aspects of the conference 2) to provide support of trainees, junior faculty, and underrepresented minorities (URM), primarily from the US, to attend this meeting, 3) to provide basic infrastructure support for planning and administration of the meeting. With the return of the meeting to the US in 2014, we are applying for funding for the meeting itself as well as the trainee support. New to this proposal is request for funds to specifically fully support US URM to attend the meeting. Extensive participation of trainees, both from US and foreign institutions, has been a hallmark of the Hershey Conference. Trainees, both MD and PhD, constitute 30-50% of all participants and we hope to partially defray the expenses for most of this group. This meeting has historically been an excellent opportunity for informal interaction among trainees and the leaders in the field as well as a mechanism for post-doctoral and visiting scientist recruitment. In 2016 the conference will once again be primarily funded by foreign sources.

描述(由申请人提供)：好时发育性脑损伤会议始于1997年，现已发展成为一个广受欢迎的、出席人数众多的国际会议，有内科科学家和基础科学家参加，其中包括很大比例的受训人员。在发育性脑损伤领域是首屈一指的。2014第九届好时大会的总体目标是再次汇聚致力于研究和治疗新生儿大脑的国际知名临床和基础科学家。2014年的总主题将集中在发展中的动物模型和人类中脑损伤后细胞死亡和可塑性的机制。基本方法保持不变。具体地说，三个目标是：1)将基础科学中的最新研究应用于临床问题；2)认识和讨论发育性脑损伤研究中正在进行的争议和解决进展；3)确定发育性脑损伤领域的未来方向。R13的目标是：1)为受邀演讲者提供部分支持，其中许多人不在发育性脑损伤领域，但将对会议的教育方面做出重大贡献2)为主要来自美国的受训人员、初级教员和代表不足的少数族裔(URM)提供支持，出席本次会议；3)为会议的规划和管理提供基本的基础设施支持。随着世界银行的回归 由于我们将于2014年前往美国，我们正在申请会议本身的资金以及实习生的支持。这项提议的新内容是要求提供资金，特别是全力支持美国市建局出席会议。来自美国和外国机构的学员的广泛参与一直是好时会议的一个标志。受训人员，包括医学博士和博士，占所有参与者的30%-50%，我们希望为这一群体的大部分人支付部分费用。从历史上看，这次会议是实习生和该领域领导人之间进行非正式互动的绝佳机会，也是招聘博士后和访问科学家的机制。2016年，大会将再次主要由外国来源提供资金。
