DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this competing renewal of our conference travel grant is to continue to facilitate student/postdoctoral fellow involvement at the meeting of the International Society for Developmental Psychobiology (ISDP). The mission of ISDP is to promote and encourage research on the development of behavior in all organisms, including humans, with special attention to the effects of biological factors operating at any level of organization. The epigenetic underpinnings of both normal and abnormal development are targets of study. We are requesting partial support of the travel expenses of up to 30 pre-doctoral and 20 postdoctoral students for attendance at the annual meetings of the ISDP over the next 5 years. The 2011 ISDP meeting will be held in Washington, DC, just prior to the Society for Neuroscience meeting. Our meetings over the past five years have been enormously successful, due in no small part to the travel grant from NIH that provided partial support for students and postdoctoral fellows to travel to these meetings. Attendance by student/fellows, as well as by underrepresented minorities, has grown steadily in the past 5 years. ISDP encourages active student participation in a variety of ways. Students receive a significant discount in membership and registration fees. Social events limited to students are arranged at each meeting. Perhaps most importantly, travel award winners are invited to present select data in a "single slide" 5- min talk, which introduces the awardees to the entire membership and facilitates interactions at the students' posters. There has been a highly enthusiastic reaction to these brief, protected talks (questions must wait until the poster session). ISDP and the journal's publisher fund other awards that help maintain involvement of the most capable young scientists in the society. Awards are given for the best dissertation, best young investigator, and best student paper published in the journal. Students and postdoctoral fellows are the lifeblood of our society. Indeed, many of the senior members of ISDP first became involved in the Society as students. Continuation of travel support from NIH will have a major impact on our ability to bring the brightest students and postdoctoral fellows to this meeting. The present proposal requests 5 years of support to continue to provide funds for partial support of travel for student and postdoctoral fellows to the ISDP annual meetings. Obtaining multiple year support will encourage a culture of active participation at the ISDP meetings among graduate students at various universities, which will prolong the impact of the grant long after the period of support requested.

描述（由申请人提供）：本次会议旅费补助的竞争性更新的目的是继续促进学生/博士后参与国际发展心理生物学学会（ISDP）的会议。ISDP的使命是促进和鼓励对包括人类在内的所有生物的行为发展的研究，特别注意在任何组织层面上运作的生物因素的影响。正常和异常发育的表观遗传基础是研究的目标。在未来5年内，我们将资助最多30名博士预科生和20名博士后参加ISDP年会的差旅费。2011年ISDP会议将在华盛顿举行，就在神经科学学会会议之前。在过去的五年里，我们的会议取得了巨大的成功，这在很大程度上要归功于美国国立卫生研究院的旅行资助，它为学生和博士后人员前往参加这些会议提供了部分支持。学生/研究员以及未被充分代表的少数民族的出勤率在过去五年中稳步增长。ISDP鼓励学生以各种方式积极参与。学生在会员和注册费方面享有很大的折扣。每次会议都安排了仅限于学生的社交活动。也许最重要的是，旅行奖的获奖者被邀请在一个5分钟的“单张幻灯片”演讲中展示精选的数据，向全体会员介绍获奖者，并促进学生海报上的互动。人们对这些简短的、受保护的演讲反应热烈（问题必须等到海报环节再提）。ISDP和该杂志的出版商资助其他奖项，以帮助保持社会中最有能力的年轻科学家的参与。奖项颁发给最佳论文、最佳青年研究者和在期刊上发表的最佳学生论文。学生和博士后是我们社会的命脉。事实上，许多ISDP的资深成员最初都是作为学生加入该协会的。美国国立卫生研究院继续提供的旅行支持将对我们吸引最聪明的学生和博士后来参加这次会议的能力产生重大影响。本提案要求5年的支助，以便继续为学生和博士后研究员参加ISDP年会的旅费提供部分支助。获得多年支持将鼓励不同大学的研究生积极参与ISDP会议的文化，这将使赠款的影响在要求的支持期之后很长时间内延长。
