PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT This NIH R13 application requests partial support for the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) 5th International Conference on Retinoids that will be held at Loews Ventana Resort, Tuscon, AZ from June 14, 2020 to June 19, 2020. The FASEB Science Research Conference on Retinoids has been held every other year since 1982 where the meeting planned for 2020 will be the 20th FASEB Science Research Conference on Retinoids. This biennial research conference has been very well attended (ranging from 100 to 200 attendees over the past 38 years) and remains the only major national and international conference committed to focus on the studies of retinoids, and to comprehensively address the broad spectrum of retinoid actions and application in an integrative manner. While the mechanisms of action and the biological functions of retinoids have been intensively studied, there is an increasing need for understanding and applying retinoids in human nutrition and diseases. Currently, a great deal of research activity is supported by the NIH (the NIH RePORTER database indicates 1666 NIH funded individual research grants involving aspects of retinoid/vitamin A biology). The main topics to be addressed include both basic and translational fronts of retinoid biology: 3 sessions on retinoid mechanisms (I, Retinoid receptors, retinoid receptor-mediated biology; II, Retinoid metabolism, homeostasis, and enzymology; III, Development, stem cell and regenerative biology); 3 sessions on retinoids and disease (I, Immune disorders and immunology; II, Signaling and metabolic dysfunction; III, Cancer and related pathologies), and 2 sessions on molecular therapeutics (I, Retinoid mechanisms and novel targets; II, Rexinoids and novel pharmacological applications). The overall goal is to bring together a group of committed investigators (senior scientists, mid-career scientists, junior scientists, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students), who work in diverse disciplines (as biochemists, molecular biologists, nutritional scientists, cancer researchers, vision researchers, stem cell biologists, biophysicists, structural biologists, immunologists, chemists, and clinicians) to present and discuss their latest research findings that share a common focus on the retinoids. To encourage new/young investigators and trainees to attend this meeting, we plan to offer six career- oriented training sessions and six meet-the-expert sessions. To increase visibility of trainees through oral presentations, we plan twenty-four 5-min capsule reports based on posters as well as five 5-min poster award presentations. This meeting has been strongly supported by NIH in the past. The 2020 Retinoid Conference will allow young investigators and trainees to obtain much needed updates on the current state of the various branches of the field and will most certainly stimulate their careers as well as collaborations with basic scientists and clinicians. We respectfully request partial support for the 2020 FASEB Retinoid Conference to increase the attendance by under-represented and women scientists, trainees, postdoctoral fellows, and early-stage investigators to facilitate entry into this research area in order to spur interdisciplinary and translational science.

项目总结/摘要 此NIH R13应用程序请求美国实验医学学会联合会的部分支持。 生物学（FASEB）第五届维甲酸国际会议将在塔斯康的Loews Ventana度假村举行， AZ从2020年6月14日至2020年6月19日。FASEB类维生素A科学研究会议已经 自1982年以来每隔一年举行一次，计划于2020年举行的会议将是第20届FASEB科学研究 关于Retinoids这两年一次的研究会议出席人数非常多（从100人到200人）。 200与会者在过去的38年），仍然是唯一的主要国家和国际会议 致力于类维生素A的研究，全面解决广谱类维生素A 行动和应用的综合方式。虽然作用机制和生物功能的 类维生素A已被深入研究，越来越需要了解和应用类维生素A在 人类营养和疾病。目前，大量的研究活动是由美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）支持的 Reporter数据库显示，1666 NIH资助的个人研究赠款涉及类维生素A/维生素A 生物学）。要解决的主要课题包括维甲酸生物学的基础和翻译前沿：3 类维生素A机制会议（I，类维生素A受体，类维生素A受体介导的生物学; II，类维生素A 代谢，稳态和酶学; III，发展，干细胞和再生生物学）; 3次会议 关于类维生素A和疾病（I，免疫障碍和免疫学; II，信号传导和代谢功能障碍; III， 癌症和相关病理学），以及2个分子治疗学会议（I，维甲酸机制和新的 目标; II，Rexinoids和新的药理学应用）。总体目标是将一组 致力于研究人员（高级科学家，职业中期科学家，初级科学家，博士后研究员， 研究生），谁在不同的学科工作（如生物化学家，分子生物学家，营养科学家， 癌症研究人员，视觉研究人员，干细胞生物学家，生物药理学家，结构生物学家，免疫学家， 化学家和临床医生）介绍和讨论他们的最新研究成果，这些研究成果共同关注 类维生素A。为了鼓励新的/年轻的调查员和学员参加这次会议，我们计划提供六个职业- 定向培训班和六次专家会议。通过口头交流提高学员的知名度 我们计划以海报为基础，制作24个5分钟的简短报告，以及5个5分钟的海报奖 介绍。这次会议在过去得到了NIH的大力支持。2020年维甲酸会议将 让年轻的调查人员和受训人员获得急需的最新资料， 该领域的分支，并肯定会刺激他们的职业生涯以及与基础科学家的合作 和临床医生。我们恭敬地请求部分支持2020年FASEB维甲酸会议，以增加 代表性不足的女科学家、受训人员、博士后研究员和早期 研究人员，以促进进入这一研究领域，以刺激跨学科和转化科学。
