DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Kern Lipid Conference, which was first convened in 1985 and continues to be held annually, explores the complex interplay between lipid metabolism and chronic human disorders such as cardio-metabolic diseases, dyslipidemia, atherosclerosis, and type II diabetes. The overall goals of the Kern Lipid Conference are to: 1) ensure at least 25 percent of meeting participants are early career scientists (graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and Assistant Professors); 2) promote science relating to broad areas of lipid and lipoprotein metabolism; 3) increase understanding of the pathobiology of dyslipidemia; 4) provide an open forum for scientists from both academia and industry to meet and discuss latest research findings related to lipid metabolism; and 5) to provide a unique meeting format in which 50 percent of the time is devoted to formal presentations and 50 percent is for open discussions of the presentations. The 2013 Kern Lipid Conference, entitled "Molecular Mechanisms and Pathophysiology of Lipid Storage,"will be held July 29 - August 1, 2013 at the Vail Cascade Resort in Vail, CO. The Conference will be co- chaired by Dawn L. Brasaemle, Ph.D. (Rutgers University) and Russell DeBose-Boyd, Ph.D. (University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center). Several aspects related to metabolism and storage of neutral lipids will be examined, including mechanisms for lipid droplet formation and dissolution, the relationships between lipid metabolism and inflammation, health effects and consequences of ectopic (non-adipose) lipid storage, adipose control of insulin sensitivity, mechanisms through which cholesterol, fatty acids, and other lipids regulate gene expression, and how modulation of transcription factors alters lipid uptake and metabolism. The speakers are internationally recognized experts in these topics and employ a variety of experimental approaches ranging from investigations of basic molecular mechanisms to studies of animal and human physiology. The program described in this application will emphasize in-depth discussion of these presentations, which will provide an impetus for development of novel strategies and therapies to prevent the aberrant accumulation of lipids that underlies many of the human disorders of interest to the Kern Lipid Conference. Importantly, the meeting continues to be a scientific agenda that encourages the attendance and participation of early career scientists in the Conference, enabling them to discuss research on a one- on-one basis with highly established scientists.

描述（由申请人提供）：克恩脂质会议于 1985 年首次召开，并每年举办一次，探讨脂质代谢与慢性人类疾病（如心脏代谢疾病、血脂异常、动脉粥样硬化和 II 型糖尿病）之间复杂的相互作用。克恩脂质会议的总体目标是： 1）确保至少 25% 的会议参与者是早期职业科学家（研究生、博士后研究员和助理教授）； 2）促进与脂质和脂蛋白代谢广泛领域相关的科学； 3）增加对血脂异常病理学的了解； 4）为学术界和工业界的科学家提供一个开放的论坛，聚集和讨论脂质代谢相关的最新研究成果； 5) 提供独特的会议形式，其中 50% 的时间用于正式演示，50% 的时间用于对演示的公开讨论。 2013 年 Kern 脂质会议，题为“脂质储存的分子机制和病理生理学”，将于 2013 年 7 月 29 日至 8 月 1 日在科罗拉多州韦尔的 Vail Cascade Resort 举行。会议将由 Dawn L. Brasaemle 博士共同主持。 （罗格斯大学）和 Russell DeBose-Boyd 博士（德克萨斯大学西南医学中心）。将研究与中性脂质代谢和储存相关的几个方面，包括脂滴形成和溶解的机制、脂质代谢和炎症之间的关系、异位（非脂肪）脂质储存的健康影响和后果、脂肪对胰岛素敏感性的控制、胆固醇、脂肪酸和其他脂质调节基因表达的机制，以及如何 转录因子的调节改变脂质摄取和代谢。演讲者是这些主题的国际公认专家，并采用各种实验方法，从基本分子机制的研究到动物和人类生理学的研究。本申请中描述的计划将强调对这些演讲的深入讨论，这将为开发新的策略和疗法提供动力，以防止脂质异常积累，而脂质异常积累是克恩脂质会议感兴趣的许多人类疾病的基础。重要的是，该会议仍然是一个科学议程，鼓励早期职业科学家出席和参与会议，使他们能够与知名科学家一对一地讨论研究。
