DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This purpose of this application is to obtain partial support for the upcoming Eleventh International Conference on the Chemistry and Biology of Mineralized Tissues (11th ICCBMT) on October 27-November 1, 2013 in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. More than 65% of our requested support is targeted to young investigator travel awards. This meeting is a forum to share the newest research advances on the structure, function, and interactions of the mineral, extracellular matrix, and cellular components in invertebrates and vertebrates in tissues such as shells, bone, cartilage and tooth while encouraging communication and collaboration among attendees from clinical and basic science disciplines. Specific aims are to: 1. Assemble a multidisciplinary and diverse group of scientists with a common interest in biomineralization; 2. Disseminate state-of-the-art cross-discipline information about the structure, function, and interactions of the mineral, matrix and cellular components in vertebrate and invertebrate tissues; 3. Provide a forum that fosters collaborations among investigators across diverse scientific disciplines; 4. Support participation and mentoring of junior investigators and student trainees though Travel Awards and forums, providing these individuals a platform to present their work, interact with senior investigators an obtain knowledge on career development and funding opportunities; and 5. Communicate the ascertained knowledge through a published ICCBMT meeting proceedings in a peer- reviewed journal, broadening the access of important findings to other scientists and clinicians. These outcomes will foster the basic mission of the NIH/NIAMS by providing new knowledge to improve the skeletal health of our nation through high quality novel research, by facilitation of interactions and collaborations of scientists across multiple fields related to mineralization, by providing networking and training to junior scientists and students in the field, and by broad open dissemination of the meeting's findings.

描述(由申请人提供)：本申请的目的是为即将于2013年10月27日至11月1日在威斯康星州日内瓦湖举行的第十一届国际矿化组织化学和生物学会议(第11届ICCBMT)获得部分支持。我们要求的支持中有65%以上是针对年轻调查人员旅行奖励的。这次会议是一个论坛，分享无脊椎动物和脊椎动物贝壳、骨、软骨和牙齿等组织中矿物、细胞外基质和细胞成分的结构、功能和相互作用的最新研究进展，同时鼓励来自临床和基础科学学科的与会者之间的交流和合作。具体目标是：1.召集对生物矿化有共同兴趣的多学科和多样化的科学家小组；2.传播关于脊椎动物和无脊椎动物组织中矿物、基质和细胞成分的结构、功能和相互作用的最新跨学科信息；3.提供一个论坛，促进不同科学学科的研究人员之间的合作；4.通过旅行奖和论坛支持初级研究人员和学生实习生的参与和指导，为这些人提供一个平台，介绍他们的工作，与高级调查人员互动，并获得关于职业发展和资助机会的知识；以及5.通过在同行评议期刊上发表的ICCBMT会议记录交流已查明的知识，扩大其他科学家和临床医生获得重要发现的途径。这些成果将促进NIH/NIAMS的基本使命，方法是提供新知识，通过高质量的新研究改善我国的骨骼健康，促进与矿化相关的多个领域的科学家之间的互动和合作，为该领域的初级科学家和学生提供网络和培训，并广泛公开传播会议的结果。
