DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The American Society for Virology (ASV) seeks a multi-year block grant to provide partial support for pre-doctoral students, post-doctoral fellows and U.S. under-graduate teachers of virology to participate in the annual ASV scientific meetings from 2011 to 2015. The 2011 ASV meeting will be held July 16-20th at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis. The objective of this application is to provide partial support for junior virologists, with particular emphasis on participation by women and underrepresented minority virologists, to broadly enhance virology research and training. A total of $30,000 per year is requested to fund awards for pre- and post- doctoral trainees at $500 each and teachers at $1,000 each. Members of the ASV Graduate Student/Post-doctoral Travel Award Committee and the Education and Career Development Committee evaluate, respectively, the applications from students and fellows, who must submit an abstract describing their work for presentation in workshops or poster sessions, and from teachers, who submit an essay explaining the benefit of ASV meeting attendance for their teaching and mentoring activities. In addition to providing information about travel awards to its members, ASV announces the availability of travel awards to ~ 100 U.S. minority schools and institutions. Post-meeting evaluations that focus on the benefits of meeting participation are obtained by questionnaires from awardees. The ASV meeting provides an opportunity for U.S. junior scientists to meet and interact directly with established virologists and to learn in symposia, workshops, poster sessions, and special satellite symposia about the most recent developments in numerous virology research areas, including the viruses of humans, animals, plants, invertebrates and prokaryotes. The ASV annual meeting is one of the few general virology meetings with a wide breathe of offerings, which serve to enhance opportunities for cross- fertilization of ideas and technologies across the whole of the virus world. This scope spans topics such as viral genetics, structure, replication, pathogenesis, evolution and emergence, and disease control and prevention. Work presented at the ASV annual meetings has applications in many fields, including cardiology, gastroenterology, hematology, immunology, infectious diseases, neurology, oncology and pediatrics. It is the conviction of the ASV that supporting virology research in this way enhances investigative efforts required to prevent and treat viral diseases and positively impacts U.S. efforts in public health.

描述（由申请人提供）：美国病毒学学会（ASV）寻求一项多年期整笔赠款，为博士前学生，博士后研究员和美国病毒学本科教师提供部分支持，以参加2011年至2015年的年度ASV科学会议。2011年ASV会议将于7月16日至20日在明尼阿波利斯的明尼苏达大学举行。这项申请的目的是为初级病毒学家提供部分支持，特别强调妇女和代表性不足的少数民族病毒学家的参与，以广泛加强病毒学研究和培训。每年共需30，000美元，用于资助博士前和博士后学员每人500美元和教师每人1，000美元。ASV研究生/博士后旅行奖委员会和教育和职业发展委员会的成员分别评估学生和研究员的申请，他们必须提交一份摘要，描述他们在研讨会或海报会议上的工作，以及教师，他们提交一篇文章，解释ASV会议出席对他们的教学和指导活动的好处。除了向其成员提供有关旅行奖励的信息外，ASV还宣布向约100所美国少数民族学校和机构提供旅行奖励。通过向获奖者发放调查问卷，获得侧重于参加会议的益处的会后评价。ASV会议为美国年轻科学家提供了一个机会，可以直接与知名病毒学家会面和互动，并通过研讨会、讲习班、海报会议和特殊卫星研讨会了解许多病毒学研究领域的最新进展，包括人类、动物、植物、无脊椎动物和原核生物的病毒。ASV年会是为数不多的具有广泛产品的一般病毒学会议之一，这些会议有助于增加整个病毒世界思想和技术交叉交流的机会。该范围涵盖病毒遗传学、结构、复制、发病机制、进化和出现以及疾病控制和预防等主题。在ASV年会上提出的工作在许多领域都有应用，包括心脏病学，胃肠病学，血液学，免疫学，传染病，神经病学，肿瘤学和儿科学。ASV坚信，以这种方式支持病毒学研究可以加强预防和治疗病毒性疾病所需的调查工作，并对美国在公共卫生方面的努力产生积极影响。
