DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The present application is a request for funds to subsidize the registration costs for trainees to attend the 14th Annual Joint Meeting of the "Great Lakes GPCR Retreat" and "Club des R¿cepteurs ¿ Sept Domains Transmembranaires du Qu¿bec" (referred to as "GPCR Retreat" in the application). The GPCR Retreat focuses on advances in our understanding of how cells communicate with each other and the environment via G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the largest class of membrane proteins and one of the largest classes of current drugs on the market. The importance of this family of membrane proteins was recognized this year by the awarding of the 2012 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Since the first GPCR Retreat in 1999, the event has grown from a local meeting into an internationally recognized conference attracting researchers from the United States, Canada, and around the world. For the first time, the GPCR Retreat will be sponsored by Case Western Reserve University and will be hosted in Cleveland, OH from October 17th-19th, 2013. The meeting is capped at 200 participants and the venue chosen to ensure an intimate atmosphere for students, postdocs, and principle investigators in academia and industry to discuss and debate the most recent findings in GPCR research. A major emphasis of the meeting is on participation by trainees. Historically, trainees represent about 2/3 of the attendees. To promote maximal participation by trainees, registration fees are typically subsidized for this group of young scientists. The present application is a request for funds to continue this subsidization for trainees. PHS 398/2590 (Rev. 06/09) Page Continuation Format Page

描述（申请人提供）：本申请是一份申请，要求提供资金，以资助学员参加“五大湖全球化学品保护务虚会”和“魁北克跨膜领域研究俱乐部”第14届年度联席会议（申请中称为“全球化学品保护务虚会”）的注册费用。GPCR务虚会重点关注我们对细胞如何通过G蛋白偶联受体（GPCR）相互交流和环境的理解，GPCR是最大的一类膜蛋白，也是市场上最大的一类药物。这个膜蛋白家族的重要性在今年的2012年诺贝尔化学奖颁奖中得到了认可。自1999年第一次GPCR务虚会以来，该活动已从一个地方会议发展成为一个国际公认的会议，吸引了来自美国，加拿大和世界各地的研究人员。GPCR务虚会将首次由凯斯西储大学赞助，并将于2013年10月17日至19日在俄亥俄州克利夫兰举行。会议最多可容纳200名与会者，会议地点的选择是为了确保学术界和工业界的学生、博士后和主要研究人员能够在亲密的气氛中讨论和辩论GPCR研究的最新发现。会议的一个主要重点是受训人员的参与。从历史上看，学员约占与会者的2/3。为了促进受训人员最大限度地参与，通常对这一青年科学家群体的注册费给予补贴。目前的申请是要求提供资金，继续为受训人员提供这种补贴。PHS 398/2590（Rev.06/09）
