DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This grant application requests partial support for the Fourth International Chordoma Research Workshop (ICRW) being coordinated and co-sponsored by the Chordoma Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization established in 2007 to rapidly advance chordoma research. This workshop aims to catalyze new advances in chordoma research and treatment development by providing a forum for investigators to exchange information and ideas, forge new collaborations, and collectively plan future research. The workshop will be held at the Liberty Hotel in Boston, MA on March 21-22, 2013. It will include didactic presentations followed by group discussions, a poster presentation, and small round-table discussions. The workshop will bring together a multidisciplinary group of specialists including treating physicians; basic, translational, and clinical researchers interested in chordoma; leaders in the patient community; and experts in related fields, such as genomics and drug development, who possess knowledge, resources, or techniques applicable to advancing chordoma research. Special efforts will be made to involve both women and scientists and clinicians from underrepresented communities. The workshop will provide a unique opportunity for cross-fertilization of ideas among participants with diverse expertise and will enable investigators to develop partnerships with colleagues from different disciplines, institutions, and countries. The impact of the workshop will be measured by surveying participants before and after the workshop to assess how many new relationships and collaborations form as a result of the workshop. The proceedings of the workshop will be published in order to update the broader research community about the state of science surrounding chordoma and the most important opportunities for future research. Ultimately the results of the research catalyzed by this workshop will lead to improved diagnosis and treatment and better long-term outcomes for patients with chordoma.

描述（由申请人提供）：本拨款申请要求部分支持第四届国际脊索瘤研究研讨会（ICRW），该研讨会由脊索瘤基金会协调和共同赞助，该基金会是一个成立于2007年的501(c)(3)非营利组织，旨在快速推进脊索瘤研究。本次研讨会旨在促进脊索瘤研究和治疗发展的新进展，为研究人员提供一个论坛来交流信息和想法，建立新的合作关系，并共同规划未来的研究。研讨会将于2013年3月21日至22日在马萨诸塞州波士顿的自由酒店举行。它将包括说教性演讲，然后是小组讨论，海报展示和小型圆桌讨论。讲习班将汇集多学科专家小组，包括治疗医生；对脊索瘤感兴趣的基础、转化和临床研究人员；患者群体的领导者；以及相关领域的专家，如基因组学和药物开发，他们拥有可用于推进脊索瘤研究的知识，资源或技术。将作出特别努力，使来自代表性不足的社区的妇女、科学家和临床医生都参与进来。研讨会将为具有不同专业知识的与会者之间的思想交流提供一个独特的机会，并将使研究人员能够与来自不同学科、机构和国家的同事建立伙伴关系。研讨会的影响将通过在研讨会前后对参与者进行调查来衡量，以评估由于研讨会而形成了多少新的关系和合作。研讨会的会议记录将被出版，以更新更广泛的研究界关于脊索瘤的科学状况和未来研究的最重要机会。最终，本次研讨会催化的研究结果将导致脊索瘤患者更好的诊断和治疗以及更好的长期预后。
