DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 2012 FASEB Summer Research Conference entitled "Lung Epithelium in Health and Disease" will focus on the molecular mechanisms of lung development and disease. This is the 7th biannual conference of developmental and cellular biologists, geneticists, biochemists, physiologists, clinicians and translational researchers with a primary interest in lung epithelial biology, and the only one of its kind. The platform sessions will highlight research on the cellular and genetic basis of ER stress, apoptosis, epithelial- mesenchymal transition, autophagy, and lung disease pathogenesis. Each session will be chaired by an expert in the field and will have invited speakers as well as platform speakers chosen from the pool of submitted abstracts. There has been a conscious effort to attract established investigators from related disciplines who can complement the expertise of the current pool of investigators focused on lung epithelium. Discussion facilitated by a discussion leader will be an important component of all sessions. Outstanding junior investigators will be awarded travel grants and will be given the opportunity to present their research in platform and poster formats. The three poster sessions will be organized thematically and will be designed to relate to the topics presented in the platform sessions that day. All conference participants dine and socialize together in an informal setting which is conducive to discussion and collaboration. Every effort will be made to include women and underrepresented minorities among the presenters. The goal of this conference is to provide a forum for leading experts to discuss the molecular and cellular basis of lung disease, to present cutting edge research, to integrate concepts and to identify creative and innovative research directions.

描述（由申请人提供）：2012年FASEB夏季研究会议题为“肺上皮细胞在健康和疾病”将集中在肺发育和疾病的分子机制。这是发育和细胞生物学家，遗传学家，生物化学家，生理学家，临床医生和翻译研究人员的第七届半年期会议，主要关注肺上皮生物学，也是同类会议中唯一的一次。平台会议将突出研究ER应激，细胞凋亡，上皮-间质转化，自噬和肺部疾病发病机制的细胞和遗传基础。每场会议将由该领域的一名专家主持，并将邀请演讲者以及从提交的摘要库中选出的平台演讲者。一直有意识地努力吸引相关学科的成熟研究者，他们可以补充目前专注于肺上皮的研究者的专业知识。由讨论带头人主持的讨论将是所有会议的重要组成部分。优秀的初级研究人员将获得旅费赠款，并有机会以平台和海报形式展示他们的研究。三场海报会议将按主题组织，并将与当天平台会议上提出的主题相关。所有与会者在一个非正式的环境中一起用餐和社交，这有利于讨论和合作。将尽一切努力让妇女和代表性不足的少数民族参加演讲。本次会议的目标是为领先的专家提供一个论坛，讨论肺部疾病的分子和细胞基础，介绍前沿研究，整合概念，并确定创造性和创新性的研究方向。
