DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Microbial Toxins and Pathogenicity is one of the most highly regarded international conferences in microbial pathogenesis. The conference has met biennially since 1972. The 2012 meeting will be held from July 8-13 at the Waterville Valley Resort in New Hampshire, and will be coupled with the student-run Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on Microbial Toxins and Pathogenicity that directly precedes the GRC. The 2012 GRC conference has been designed to allow the presentation of breakthrough results in the molecular action of bacterial toxins, host manipulation by microbial pathogens, control of innate immune responses by both the pathogen and the host, and the role of normal flora disruption in modulating infectious diseases. Speakers include established investigators as well as junior investigators who have made some of the most stunning recent discoveries in the field. The conference includes nine seminar sessions. The first session will have two keynote addresses by workers who are leaders in the two most important disciplines in this field: molecular pathogenesis and toxinology. Each session will be chaired by a leading investigator who will present a provocative overview of the area of research being covered in the session. The Discussion Leader will also serve to maintain a high level of interaction between attendees and speakers during the question and answer session after each talk. In addition to the nine seminar sessions, two poster sessions are active throughout the conference. Each attendee is encouraged to present either a talk or a poster. The GRC will be preceded by the Gordon Research Seminar (GRS). The GRS is planned and attended by postdoctoral fellows and graduate students and is organized under the guidance of the GRC chairperson. The GRS on Microbial Toxins and Pathogenicity allows scientific interactions among trainees studying microbial pathogenesis. The 2010 GRS was attended by 51 post-doctoral fellows and graduate students who participated in ten talks and two poster sessions, and a similar number of participants is expected for the proposed conference. Two GRS participants will also present their research at the 2010 GRC conference. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The Gordon Research Conference on Microbial Toxins and Pathogenicity is a biennial meeting of the top investigators in the field of microbial pathogenesis that will be coupled with a Gordon Research Seminar for trainees. The conference has been designed to maximize exposure of both leading investigators and trainees to the most exciting new research in microbial pathogenesis, in a highly interactive environment that encourages the formation of new collaborations between individuals with diverse interests in fields associated with toxinology, microbial virulence and the innate immune response.

描述（由申请人提供）：微生物毒素和致病性戈登研究会议（GRC）是微生物发病机理方面最受重视的国际会议之一。自1972年以来，会议每两年举行一次。2012年的会议将于7月8日至13日在新罕布什尔州的沃特维尔山谷度假村举行，并将与学生运行的戈登研究研讨会（GRS）的微生物毒素和致病性，直接先于GRC。 2012年GRC会议旨在展示细菌毒素的分子作用、微生物病原体对宿主的操纵、病原体和宿主对先天免疫反应的控制以及正常植物群破坏在调节传染病中的作用等方面的突破性成果。演讲者包括已建立的调查人员以及初级调查人员，他们在该领域取得了一些最令人震惊的最新发现。会议包括9个研讨会。第一次会议将有两个主题演讲的工人谁是领导者在这一领域的两个最重要的学科：分子发病机制和毒素学。每次会议将由一名主要研究人员主持，他将对会议所涵盖的研究领域进行挑衅性的概述。在每次演讲后的问答环节中，讨论负责人还将负责保持与会者和演讲者之间的高水平互动。除了九场研讨会外，两个海报会议贯穿整个会议。鼓励每位与会者发表演讲或海报。 在GRC之前将举行戈登研究研讨会（GRS）。GRS由博士后研究员和研究生计划和参加，并在GRC主席的指导下组织。关于微生物毒素和致病性的GRS允许研究微生物致病机理的学员之间进行科学互动。2010年的GRS有51名博士后研究员和研究生参加，他们参加了10场演讲和两次海报会议，预计拟议的会议将有类似数量的与会者。两名GRS参与者也将在2010年GRC会议上介绍他们的研究。 公共卫生关系：戈登微生物毒素和致病性研究会议是微生物致病性领域顶级研究人员的两年一度的会议 这将与戈登研究研讨会的学员相结合。该会议旨在最大限度地提高领先的研究人员和受训人员对微生物发病机制中最令人兴奋的新研究的接触，在高度互动的环境中，鼓励在与毒理学，微生物毒力和先天免疫反应相关的领域中具有不同兴趣的个人之间形成新的合作。
