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）： 戈登环境内分泌干扰物研究会议（GRC）仍然是内分泌干扰物研究领域的首要会议。这个GRC也许是唯一的科学会议，其中每一个单独的谈话是直接相关的NIEHS的使命，并开始于1998年作为一个独特的论坛，以吸引来自研究领域的研究人员谁分享共同利益的影响内分泌干扰化学品（EDCs）对野生动物和人类健康。自1998年以来，该会议每两年举行一次，由全球研究中心组织，该组织以其会议的高质量和前沿性而国际知名。现在，在其第九次化身，这个GRC吸引了来自基础科学，临床医学，流行病学，公共卫生，政府，非政府组织和行业的专家，也许是任何GRC最广泛的选区。2014年会议将于2014年5月11日至16日在意大利的卢卡（巴尔加）举行，同时在同一地点举行相关的戈登研究研讨会（GRS）（5月10日至11日），面向早期研究人员（初级教师，研究员和学生）。2010年的主要目标 2014年GRC将野生动物的观察结果与使用模型系统的机械实验室研究以及人类临床和流行病学研究联系起来，以提供有关内分泌干扰物如何影响健康的综合观点。计划举办关于生殖健康、甲状腺功能紊乱、肥胖/新陈代谢和免疫的会议。这些领域与以往会议的领域相似（因为这些议题仍然是令人极为关切的领域）。2014年的会议是独特的，因为该计划的目的是将野生动物，实验室动物和人类临床和流行病学研究纳入几乎每一个会议。每次会议都为从提交的摘要中选出的新出现的热门话题留出一个时间，以确保介绍最新成果（特别是年轻科学家的成果）。GRS首次在2012年GRC上举行，并受到热烈欢迎。本GRS期间的活动旨在：（1）为年轻的研究人员提供强有力的背景，使他们了解EDCs的作用机制和前沿方法，以最大限度地了解随后的GRC中将要讨论的科学，（2）从同行和该领域的专家那里获得关于他们正在进行的研究项目的反馈，（3）促进同行互动，促进未来的网络。科学讨论，研究讲座，海报会议，以及GRC和GRS参与者之间的非正式互动将大大有助于促进我们对人类健康内分泌干扰的新分子机制的理解。在此形成的互动和合作将为未来的国际努力提供坚实的基础，以了解和减轻内分泌干扰的重要公共卫生问题。
