DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this R13 proposal is to seek support for the American Physiological Society (APS) Specialty Conference entitled "Integrative Biology of Exercise VI" scheduled for October 11-13, 2012 in Westminster, Colorado. The conference will bring together national and international scientists from multiple disciplines involved in research with broad relevance to the field of exercise physiology. Physical activity is a fundamental process of life, similar to reproduction and nutrition. However, according to data from the Department of Health and Human Services, physical inactivity has become increasingly prevalent in the US and is estimated to contribute substantially to the etiology of many major diseases, including coronary heart disease, osteoporosis, colon cancer, breast cancer to name but a few. Thus, research directed at identifying the molecular, cellular, and physiological mechanisms that underlie the link between sedentary behavior and disease etiology potentially holds critical keys to developing effective prevention/therapeutic strategies. The Integrated Biology of Exercise conference has been held every four years since its inception in 1992 to coordinate, exchange, and disseminate the latest molecular, cellular, biological and physiological research amongst the national and international scientists working in this broad interdisciplinary field. The previous five IBE meetings have averaged 623 registrants and 357 abstract submissions per meeting. The American Physiological Society has sponsored the conferences since 1992 and NIAMS has provided matching funds to support each of the five previous meetings. The IBE conference has a rich history of involving promising young investigators in the program and creating an enthusiastic forum for promoting and engaging emerging scientists in the field. Given the limited programming availability at national annual meetings, the strong scientific program and opportunities for professional growth and networking has established the IBE conference as a "must attend" meeting in the field. The proposed program for the 2012 meeting continues this successful formula. The specific aims of the IBE VI conference are: 1. To convene an internationally recognized, interdisciplinary group of scientists to present, exchange, and discuss the latest research findings, to identify key questions needing to be addressed to advance the exercise physiology field, and to consider new and provocative ideas. 2. To promote the wide-spread participation of young investigators and trainees, with an emphasis on women and underrepresented minorities, through both a pre-/postdoc abstract award program and the APS minority travel award program. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The 2012 Integrative Biology of Exercise (IBE) conference is held once every four years and has been sponsored by the American Physiological Society since its inception in 1992. The IBE conferences satisfy the scientific needs of a large constituent of national and international scientists conducting research on various aspects of exercise physiology. A primary objective of the IBE VI conference will be to bring together nationally and internationally known scientists working in the area of exercise physiology as well as related interdisciplinary fields to coordinate, exchange, and disseminate research findings. Particular emphasis has been placed by the Organizing Committee on identifying the unknowns and the key challenges facing the field to impart significant advances in preventing and treating diseases related to lack of physical activity. Improving our collective understanding of the underlying mechanisms by which physical inactivity contributes to disease etiology and the mechanisms by which activity at the molecular and cellular levels prevents/reverses disease are critical to devising strategies to address the current disturbing health trends.

描述（由申请人提供）：该R13提案的目的是为2012年10月11日至13日在科罗拉多州威斯敏斯特举行的题为“运动VI的综合生物学”的专业会议寻求支持。该会议将汇集来自与运动生理学领域广泛相关的研究的多个学科的国家和国际科学家。体育活动是生活的基本过程，类似于生殖和营养。但是，根据卫生和公共服务部的数据，在美国，身体上的不活跃变得越来越普遍，据估计有助于许多主要疾病的病因，包括冠心病，骨质疏松症，结肠癌，乳腺癌，仅举几例。因此，旨在识别久坐行为与疾病病因之间联系的分子，细胞和生理机制的研究可能是开发有效的预防/治疗策略的关键关键。 自1992年成立以来，运动综合生物学会议就每四年举行一次，以协调，交换和传播最新的分子，细胞，生物学和生理研究，从事这个广泛的跨学科领域的国家和国际科学家。每次会议的前五次IBE会议平均有623名注册人和357个抽象提交。自1992年以来，美国的生理学会赞助了会议，尼亚姆斯（Niams）提供了匹配的资金来支持以前的五次会议。 IBE会议有着悠久的历史，使他们有前途的年轻调查员参与该计划，并创建了一个热情的论坛，以促进和吸引该领域的新兴科学家。鉴于国家年度会议上的编程有限的可用性，强大的科学计划以及专业成长和网络的机会已建立了IBE会议，因为它是该领域的“必须参加”会议。 2012年会议的拟议计划延续了这一成功的公式。 IBE VI会议的具体目的是：1。召集国际认可的，跨学科的科学家小组，以介绍，交流和讨论最新的研究结果，以确定需要解决的关键问题，以提高运动生理学领域，并考虑新的和挑衅的思想。 2。通过一项前/博士后摘要奖励计划和APS少数民族旅行奖计划，促进年轻的调查人员和学员的广泛参与，重点是妇女和代表性不足的少数民族。 公共卫生相关性：2012年的锻炼综合生物学（IBE）会议每四年举行一次，自1992年成立以来，美国生理学会赞助。iBE会议满足了国家和国际科学家在运动生理学各个方面进行研究的大量组成的科学需求。 IBE VI会议的主要目的是将在运动生理学领域工作的国家和知名科学家以及相关的跨学科领域汇集在一起​​，以协调，交流和传播研究结果。组织委员会已特别强调确定未知数以及该领域面临的主要挑战，以预防和治疗与缺乏体育锻炼有关的疾病。提高我们对物理不活动有助于疾病病因的基本机制的集体理解以及分子和细胞水平的活性阻止/逆转疾病的机制对于制定目前令人不安的健康趋势的策略至关重要。
