Project Summary The major objective of the conference is to bring together researchers from the biological and physical sciences that are investigating stress responses in environmental, biotechnology, and medically relevant contexts. These stress responses are central to our understanding and controlling microbial survival in the vast array of environmental niches inhabited by microbes. Whether in aquatic, soil, or host environments, microbes must respond to fluctuations in temperature, the concentrations of ions, nutrients, oxygen or other electron acceptors, toxins, and osmolytes. Survival and subsequent niche specialization by microbes relies upon both individual cellular responses and community interactions in these environments. The Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Microbial Stress Response is the premier and unique forum for the exchange of scientific discoveries in the field and the wide range of cutting edge approaches utilized in this research. There is a longstanding commitment of this GRC to offering an open, welcoming meeting that will attract and support junior scientists (graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and newly independent researchers) to present their research in talks or at posters. A third of the talks are selected from the posters abstracts and are most often given by junior scientists. In 2014, this goal will be expanded by supporting a Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on Microbial Stress Response prior to the GRC. The two-day GRS will bring young scientists together in a stimulating environment to discuss their current research, learn about career development, and build informal networks with their peers. A poster blitz, where researchers have the opportunity to orally preview their poster to the community, will be another mechanism introduced at this meeting to facilitate increased and earlier interaction of all participants. With a commitment to diversity in mind that accurately represents our scientific community, 21 out of 36 of the invited or confirmed speakers/discussion leaders for the GRC are female and several are members of under-represented minority groups. Invited speakers also include several international scientists to increase the global scientific interactions in the microbial stress response field. The Gordon Research Conferences historically attracts scientists from undergraduate institutions, as well as research universities and institutes, providing a unique atmosphere for exchange among scientists at all levels. Clearly, the content of the meeting has the potential to inform an amazing range of areas including human health and disease, microbial-based alternative energy sources, geomicrobiology, and climate change. This conference brings together scientists from across the spectrum of microbial stress studies providing the ideal setting for cross-fertilization of ideas that have the potential to lead to significant new advances and the development and application of exciting new methodologies.

项目摘要 会议的主要目标是汇集来自生物和物理领域的研究人员， 正在研究环境，生物技术和医学相关的压力反应的科学 contexts.这些应激反应是我们理解和控制微生物在环境中存活的核心。 大量的微生物栖息的环境小生境。无论是在水生、土壤或宿主环境中， 微生物必须对温度的波动、离子浓度、营养物、氧气或其他环境条件作出反应。 电子受体、毒素和渗透剂。微生物的生存和随后的生态位专门化依赖于 在这些环境中的个体细胞反应和社区互动。戈登 微生物应激反应研究会议（GRC）是交流的首要和独特的论坛 该领域的科学发现和广泛的尖端方法在这项研究中使用。 本集团长期以来一直致力于提供一个开放、欢迎的会议， 支持初级科学家（研究生，博士后研究员和新的独立研究人员）， 在演讲或海报中展示他们的研究。三分之一的演讲是从海报摘要中挑选出来的， 大多数是由年轻的科学家提供的。在2014年，这一目标将通过支持戈登研究中心（Gordon Research） 研讨会（GRS）微生物应激反应前的GRC。为期两天的GRS将把年轻的科学家 一起在一个刺激的环境中讨论他们目前的研究，了解职业发展， 与同龄人建立非正式的网络。一个海报闪电战，研究人员有机会口头 向社会预览他们的海报，将是这次会议上引入的另一个机制， 所有参与者之间的更多和更早的互动。以多样性为宗旨， 代表我们的科学界，36位受邀或确认的演讲者/讨论负责人中有21位 总选举委员会成员是女性，有几名是代表性不足少数群体成员。特邀发言人还 包括几位国际科学家，以增加微生物胁迫方面的全球科学互动 响应字段。戈登研究会议历来吸引科学家从本科 研究机构，以及研究型大学和研究所，提供了一个独特的氛围，交流之间 各级科学家。显然，会议的内容有可能提供一系列令人惊讶的信息， 包括人类健康和疾病、微生物替代能源、地质微生物学，以及 气候变化这次会议汇集了来自微生物应激领域的科学家， 研究提供了理想的环境，有可能导致重大的思想交叉施肥 新的进展以及令人兴奋的新方法的开发和应用。
