 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): E.M. Shore, P.I. Advances in Mineral Metabolism (AIMM) is an annual conference that combines presentations on bone and musculoskeletal biology research in a format that provides extensive opportunity for open discussions and exchange of ideas from basic, clinical, and translational perspectives. The AIMM meeting has been embraced by a broad spectrum of scientists and clinicians who have gathered for the last 29 consecutive years to participate in the high quality discussions of state-of-the-art topics that are the core of the spirit of AIMM. From its start in 1985, the AIMM meeting has been an important and unique scientific meeting, distinguished by cutting edge reports and intensive scientific discussions. A unique feature of AIMM has consistently been to use half of each presentation time slot for lively and engaging discussion. The AIMM program has consistently maintained balance in basic research and clinical perspectives and is attended by academics (basic researchers and clinicians), postdoctoral trainees, and by scientists working in the pharmaceutical industry. In addition to high quality scientific discussion, a major goal of the AIMM meeting is to provide opportunities for young scientists to interact closely with more established researchers in a welcoming and interactive environment that fosters creative scientific exchange and encourages their career development. AIMM accomplishes this through a number of mechanisms: first, all Young Investigator awardees present their work orally within the planned scientific sessions; second, the program includes an open basic science session and an open clinical science session that provide young investigators additional opportunities to present recent findings or case reports; third, each session includes time for extended discussions and participation of young investigators is encouraged; fourth, meet-the-professor sessions provide unique opportunities for small-group interaction that particularly benefit scientists-in-training and young faculty; finally, the format of the meeting brings attendees together throughout the day including time for unstructured informal group and individual discussions. The 2015 AIMM meeting will take place from April 6-10, 2015 at the Stonebridge Inn in Snowmass Village, Colorado. The program will include basic science and clinical/translational oral presentations on relevant and new research on bone forming therapies for osteoporosis, osteocyte-driven bone remodeling, musculoskeletal effects of cancer and bone, novel therapies for rare bone disease, hormonal regulation of bone by vitamin D, and the biology of the developing skeleton. Presentations and discussions by scientists and clinicians with expertise in these areas, as well as by young investigators who have been selected through a competitive process, will be a focus of the meeting. Invited speakers will lead meet-the-professor discussions on scientific and career development topics. A topical debate on whether mouse models can inform studies of human skeletal biology will also be held. The requested funds for the 2015 annual meeting would be a significant contribution toward fulfilling AIMM's goals to stimulate creativity in bone and musculoskeletal research and to provide young investigators with strong and lasting support to promote and develop their talent.

 描述（由申请人提供）：E.M. Shore, P.I.矿物质代谢进展 (AIMM) 是一个年度会议，结合了骨和肌肉骨骼生物学研究的演讲，为从基础、临床和转化角度进行公开讨论和思想交流提供了广泛的机会。 AIMM 会议受到了广泛的科学家和临床医生的欢迎，他们在过去连续 29 年聚集在一起，参与对最先进主题的高质量讨论， 是AIMM精神的核心。自 1985 年召开以来，AIMM 会议一直是一次重要且独特的科学会议，以前沿报告和密集的科学讨论为特色。 AIMM 的一个独特之处是始终利用每个演示时段的一半时间进行生动有趣的讨论。 AIMM项目始终保持基础研究和临床观点的平衡，参加者包括学者（基础研究人员和临床医生）、博士后培训生以及制药行业的科学家。除了高质量的科学讨论之外，AIMM 会议的一个主要目标是为年轻科学家提供在热情和互动的环境中与更成熟的研究人员密切互动的机会，以促进创造性的科学交流并鼓励他们的职业发展。 AIMM 通过多种机制实现这一目标：首先，所有青年研究者获奖者在计划的科学会议上口头展示他们的工作；其次，该计划包括开放的基础科学会议和开放的临床科学会议，为年轻研究人员提供展示最新发现或病例报告的更多机会；第三，每场会议都有长时间的讨论时间，鼓励年轻研究者参与；第四，教授见面会为小组互动提供了独特的机会，这对受训科学家和年轻教师尤其有利；最后，会议的形式使与会者全天聚集在一起，包括进行非结构化的非正式小组和个人讨论的时间。 2015 年 AIMM 会议将于 2015 年 4 月 6 日至 10 日在科罗拉多州斯诺马斯村的 Stonebridge Inn 举行。该计划将包括基础科学和临床/翻译口头报告，内容涉及骨质疏松症的骨形成疗法、骨细胞驱动的骨重塑、癌症和骨骼的肌肉骨骼效应、罕见骨病的新疗法、维生素 D 对骨骼的激素调节以及骨骼发育的生物学等相关和新研究。具有这些领域专业知识的科学家和临床医生以及通过竞争过程选出的年轻研究人员的演讲和讨论将成为会议的焦点。受邀演讲者将主持与教授就科学和职业发展主题进行的讨论。还将举行关于小鼠模型是否可以为人类骨骼生物学研究提供信息的主题辩论。 2015 年年会所需的资金将为实现 AIMM 的目标做出重大贡献，即激发骨骼和肌肉骨骼研究的创造力，并为年轻研究人员提供强大而持久的支持，以促进和发展他们的才能。
