DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal requests partial support for an international meeting on Myogenesis as part of the Gordon Research Conference and Gordon Research Seminar series to be held at the Renaissance Tuscany Il Ciocco Resort Lucca (Barga), Italy July 6-12, 2013. The broad and long term goal of the conference and seminar is to increase our understanding of the fundamental mechanisms of normal muscle development, growth and hypertrophy, regeneration, homeostasis and aging, cancer and myopathies, and evolution with an emphasis on mammalian models but with comparisons to other vertebrate and invertebrate systems. The specific aims of these meetings are to convene, in an isolated setting, 1. a Conference with 45 speakers that represent critical areas of striated muscle research with a total of 200 participants for a five day conference as well as 2. a one day graduate and postdoctoral research Seminar immediately prior to the Conference. The Conference program will have a keynote address on musculoskeletal development and evolution, and nine sessions that broadly address current issues in early muscle development, cell biological control of myogenesis, tissue interactions regulating muscle development and regeneration, regulation of muscle size, muscle stem cells, genetic, epigenetic, and microRNA control of muscle, muscle regeneration and aging, and muscle disease and treatments. In addition, four evening poster sessions will permit all participants to contribute to these topics. The Seminar will have four sessions of talks and two poster sessions by graduate students and postdoctoral fellows and represents a unique opportunity for the upcoming generation of scientists to present their research on myogenesis, develop new ideas, and form collaborations. The significance of this application is that the Myogenesis Gordon Research Conference is a critical component of the yearly series of conferences that bring together cutting edge muscle researchers in the international community. The inaugural Gordon-Kenan Graduate and Postdoctoral Research Seminar is an exciting new meeting to foster the upcoming generation of scientists in the field of myogenesis. The health relatedness of this application is that the discussions generated within this interdisciplinary conference will define current outstanding questions in the field and will generate new experimental approaches in areas that affect human muscle development, health, and aging, muscle diseases, and regenerative mechanisms and therapies.

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案要求部分支持将于2013年7月6日至12日在意大利卢卡（巴尔加）托斯卡纳文艺复兴度假村举行的关于肌生成的国际会议，作为戈登研究会议和戈登研究研讨会系列的一部分。会议和研讨会的广泛和长期目标是增加我们对正常肌肉发育，生长和肥大，再生，体内平衡和衰老，癌症和肌病以及进化的基本机制的理解，重点是哺乳动物模型，并与其他脊椎动物和无脊椎动物系统进行比较。这些会议的具体目标是在一个孤立的环境中召集1。会议有45位代表横纹肌研究关键领域的演讲者，共有200人参加，为期5天。在会议之前举行为期一天的研究生和博士后研究研讨会。会议计划将有一个关于肌肉骨骼发育和进化的主题演讲，以及九个会议，广泛讨论早期肌肉发育，肌肉发生的细胞生物学控制，调节肌肉发育和再生的组织相互作用，肌肉大小的调节，肌肉干细胞，肌肉的遗传，表观遗传和microRNA控制，肌肉再生和衰老，肌肉疾病和治疗的当前问题。此外，四个晚上的海报会议将允许所有参与者对这些主题作出贡献。研讨会将有四场讲座和两场由研究生和博士后参加的海报会议，为新一代科学家提供了一个独特的机会，展示他们在肌肉发生方面的研究，发展新想法，并形成合作。这一应用的意义在于，肌生成戈登研究会议是一年一度的一系列会议的重要组成部分，这些会议汇集了国际社会最前沿的肌肉研究人员。首届戈登-凯南研究生和博士后研究研讨会是一个令人兴奋的新会议，旨在培养肌发生领域的下一代科学家。这一应用与健康的关系是，在这次跨学科会议中产生的讨论将定义该领域当前的突出问题，并将在影响人类肌肉发育、健康和衰老、肌肉疾病以及再生机制和治疗的领域产生新的实验方法。
