Fourteenth Annual Conference on Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology

描述(由申请人提供)：美国心脏协会动脉硬化、血栓和血管生物学委员会(ATVB)举行一年一度的春季会议。最近的一次演出是2012年4月18日至20日在芝加哥希尔顿酒店举行的ATVB 2012。这次会议取得了巨大的成功，注册人数达到898人。向ATVB 2012提交的摘要数量为554篇，连续第五年远远超过前几年提交的典型摘要约400篇。这些统计数字提供了切实的证据，表明科学界对ATVB主题领域的广泛兴趣和承诺，以及对春季ATVB会议的形式和气氛的压倒性热情。基础科学家、翻译研究人员和临床医生，无论是经验丰富的研究人员还是早期职业科学家，都喜欢来参加ATVB春季会议。我们寻求支持的下一次ATVB会议ATVB 2013将于2013年5月1日至3日在佛罗里达州奥兰多的海豚酒店举行。与以前的申请一样，这项提议特别要求对我们的青年调查员旅行奖提供支持。认识到早期研究人员是我们科学进步的未来，ATVB会议的一个主要重点是鼓励年轻的研究人员积极参与AHA的ATVB理事会。青年研究人员旅行奖已连续13年得到美国国立卫生研究院NHLBI的资助。这些奖项是我们招募、留住和积极吸引年轻研究人员进入血栓、动脉硬化和血管生物学领域的战略的组成部分，这些领域的研究对美国人口的健康具有重要意义。第14届动脉硬化、血栓形成和血管生物学年会。2013年5月1日至3日。佛罗里达州奥兰多市海豚酒店关键人员Steven Lentz主席、ATVB 2013计划委员会Muredach Reilly副主席、ATVB 2013计划委员会Nigel Mackman主席、ATVB理事会副主席Kathryn Moore

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Council of Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology (ATVB) of the American Heart Association holds an annual Spring meeting. The most recent rendition, ATVB 2012, was held at the Chicago Hilton, April 18-20, 2012. The meeting was a resounding success with 898 registrants. The number of abstracts submitted to ATVB 2012 was 554 and, for the fifth year in a row, was well above the typical ~400 abstracts that had been submitted in previous years. These statistics provide tangible evidence of the broad interest and commitment of the scientific community in the topic areas of ATVB and the overwhelming enthusiasm for the format and atmosphere of Spring ATVB meeting. Basic scientists, translational researchers and clinicians, both seasoned investigators and early career scientists, enjoy coming to ATVB Spring meetings. The next ATVB meeting, ATVB 2013, for which we seek support, will be held May 1-3, 2013 at the Dolphin Hotel, Orlando, Florida. As with previous applications, this proposal specifically requests support for our Young Investigator Travel Awards. Knowing that early stage investigators are the future of our scientific progress, a major emphasis of the ATVB meetings is to encourage the active involvement of the younger cohort of investigators in the ATVB Council of the AHA. The Young Investigator Travel Awards has been supported by NHLBI of NIH for 13 consecutive years. These awards are an integral part of our strategy to recruit, retain and actively engage young investigators in the fields of thrombosis, arteriosclerosis and vascular biology, which are areas of research that are of major importance to the health of the U.S. population. Performance Site The 14th Annual Conference on Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology. May 1-3, 2013.
