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(由申请者提供)：本赠款申请请求为第四届国际脊索瘤研究研讨会(ICRW)提供部分支持，该研讨会由脊索瘤基金会协调和共同赞助，该基金会成立于2007年，是一个501(C)(3)非营利性组织，旨在快速推进脊索瘤研究。该研讨会旨在通过为研究人员提供一个交流信息和想法、建立新的合作并共同规划未来研究的论坛，促进脊索瘤研究和治疗开发的新进展。研讨会将于2013年3月21-22日在马萨诸塞州波士顿的Liberty酒店举行。它将包括说教报告，然后是小组讨论，海报演示，和小型圆桌讨论。研讨会将汇集一个多学科的专家小组，其中包括治疗医生；对脊索瘤感兴趣的基础、翻译和临床研究人员；患者社区的领导者；以及拥有适用于推进脊索瘤研究的知识、资源或技术的相关领域的专家，如基因组学和药物开发。将作出特别努力，让妇女和来自代表性不足社区的科学家和临床医生参与进来。讲习班将为具有不同专业知识的参与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、机构和国家的同事发展伙伴关系。讲习班的影响将通过在讲习班之前和之后对参与者进行调查来衡量，以评估讲习班形成了多少新的关系和合作。研讨会的会议记录将予以公布，以便更广泛的研究界了解脊索瘤的科学状况和未来研究的最重要机会。最终，这次研讨会推动的研究结果将改善脊索瘤患者的诊断和治疗，并获得更好的长期结果。
