DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Environmental Endocrine Disruptors continues to be the premier meeting in the field of endocrine disruptor research. This GRC is perhaps the only scientific meeting in which every single talk is directly related to the mission of NIEHS and began in 1998 as a unique forum to attract researchers from across the research spectrum who shared common interests in the effects of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) on wildlife and human health. This meeting has been held biennially since 1998 and is organized by the GRC, an organization internationally known for the high quality, cutting-edge nature of its meetings. Now in its 9th incarnation, this GRC attracts experts from basic science, clinical medicine, epidemiology, public health, government, NGOs and industry, perhaps the widest constituency of any GRC. The 2014 meeting will be held at Lucca (Barga), Italy on May 11-16, 2014, together with an associated Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) at the same location (May 10-11) which is oriented toward early stage investigators (junior faculty, fellows and students). Key goals for the 2014 GRC are to link observations in wildlife with mechanistic laboratory studies using model systems and human clinical and epidemiological studies to provide an integrated view of how EDCs affect health. Sessions have been planned on reproductive health, thyroid disruption, obesity/metabolism and immunity. These areas are similar to those of past meetings (because the topics continue to be areas of great concern). The 2014 meeting is distinct because the program has been designed to integrate wildlife, laboratory animal and human clinical and epidemiological studies into nearly every session. One slot in each session has been reserved for emerging hot topic talks to be selected from submitted abstracts to ensure that the latest results (particularly from young scientists) are presented. The GRS was held for the first time at the 2012 GRC and was enthusiastically received. Activities during this GRS are intended to: (1) provide young investigators with a strong background in mechanisms through which EDCs act and cutting edge approaches to study them to maximize their understanding of the science to be discussed in the subsequent GRC, (2) produce feedback on their ongoing research projects from their peers and from experts in the field, and (3) facilitate peer interactions to promote future networking. The scientific discussions, research talks, poster sessions, and informal interactions among the participants of the GRC and GRS will greatly contribute to advancing our understanding of novel molecular mechanisms involved in endocrine disruption of human health. The interactions and collaborations forged here will provide a strong base for future international efforts to understand and mitigate the important public health problem of endocrine disruption.

描述（由申请人提供）： 戈登研究会议（GRC）关于环境内分泌破坏者，继续是内分泌干扰器研究领域的主要会议。该GRC也许是唯一一次与Niehs的使命直接相关的科学会议，并于1998年开始是一个独特的论坛，旨在吸引来自整个研究范围的研究人员，他们在内分泌破坏化学物质（EDC）对野生动植物和人类健康的影响中具有共同的兴趣。这次会议自1998年以来一直举行，并由GRC组织，GRC是一个以其会议的高质量，尖端性质而闻名的组织。现在，该GRC在第9个化身中吸引了基础科学，临床医学，流行病学，公共卫生，政府，非政府组织和工业的专家，这也许是任何GRC的最广泛选区。 2014年的会议将于2014年5月11日至16日在意大利卢卡（Lucca）举行，并在同一地点（5月10日至11日）举行的相关戈登研究研讨会（GRS），该研讨会（5月10日至11日）朝向早期研究人员（初级教职员工，研究员和学生）。关键目标 2014年GRC将使用模型系统以及人类的临床和流行病学研究将野生动植物中的观察结果与机械实验室研究联系起来，以综合观察EDC对健康的影响。已经计划了有关生殖健康，甲状腺破坏，肥胖/代谢和免疫力的会议。这些领域与过去的会议类似（因为主题仍然是引起人们关注的领域）。 2014年的会议之所以与众不同，是因为该计划旨在将野生动植物，实验室动物和人类临床和流行病学研究整合到几乎每个会议中。每个会议中的一个插槽都保留在提交的摘要中选择新兴的热门话题对话，以确保提出最新结果（尤其是来自年轻科学家的结果）。 GRS是在2012年GRC上首次举行的，并受到了热情的接待。此期间的活动旨在：（1）为年轻的研究人员提供强大的机制背景，EDCS ACT和最先进的方法可以研究它们，以最大程度地了解他们对随后的GRC中待讨论的科学的理解，（2）对他们正在进行的研究项目的反馈，从他们正在进行的研究项目中，来自现场的专家，以及（3）促进同伴的互动，并促进了未来的互动。 GRC和GRS参与者之间的科学讨论，研究会议，海报会议以及非正式的互动将极大地促进我们对参与内分泌对人类健康涉及的新型分子机制的理解。这里施加的互动和合作将为未来的国际努力提供强大的基础，以了解和减轻内分泌干扰的重要公共卫生问题。
