 DESCRIPTION (provided by the applicant): The American Society for Virology (ASV) is applying for a multi-year block grant to provide partial support for pre-doctoral students, post-doctoral fellows and U.S. under-graduate teachers of virology to participate in the annual ASV scientific meetings in 2016-2021. The ASV 2016 meeting will be held June 18-22nd on the Virginia Tech University campus. Our aim is to provide partial support for junior virologists, with particular attention to participation by women and underrepresented minority virologists, with the goal of benefiting U.S. research in the future. Pre- and post-doctoral awards will be $500, and for teachers $1,000, for a total of $30,000 per year. Members of the ASV Graduate Student/Post-doctoral Travel Award Committee and the Education & Career Development Committee evaluate the applications that include for students and fellows an abstract of their work for presentation in workshops or poster sessions, and for teachers an essay explaining the benefit of ASV meeting attendance to their teaching and counseling. In addition to its members, ASV announces the availability of travel awards to ~100 U.S. minority schools and institutions. Post-meeting evaluations are obtained by questionnaires required of awardees that focus on how they benefited from participation. The ASV meeting continues to provide an opportunity for U.S. junior scientists to meet and interact directly with recognized virologists as well as to learn in symposia, workshops, poster sessions, and special satellite symposia the most recent developments in virus research areas, including the viruses of humans, animals, plants, invertebrates and prokaryotes. The ASV is one of the last general virology meetings with this breath of offerings, enhancing directly opportunities for crossfertilization of ideas and technologies across the whole of the virus world. This scope spans topics such as virus genetics, replication, structure, pathogenesis, evolution and emergence, disease control and virus-host interactions. Work presented at the ASV general meetings has applications in fields such as infectious diseases, immunology, cancer, hematology, cardiology, gastroenterology, neurology and pediatrics. The ASV feels that supporting virology research in this way positively impacts U.S. efforts in public health and the research needed to overcome viral diseases.

 描述（由申请人提供）：美国病毒学学会（ASV）正在申请一项多年期整笔拨款，为博士前学生、博士后研究员和美国病毒学本科教师参加 2016-2021 年年度 ASV 科学会议提供部分支持。 ASV 2016 会议将于 6 月 18 日至 22 日在弗吉尼亚理工大学校园举行。我们的目标是为初级病毒学家提供部分支持， 特别关注妇女的参与 和代表性不足的少数族裔病毒学家，其目标是使美国未来的研究受益。 博士前和博士后奖励为 500 美元，教师奖励为 1,000 美元，每年总计 30,000 美元。 ASV 研究生/博士后旅行奖励委员会和教育与职业发展委员会的成员对申请进行评估，其中包括学生和研究员在研讨会或海报会议上展示的工作摘要，以及教师的论文，解释参加 ASV 会议对其教学和咨询的好处。除了其成员外，ASV 还宣布向约 100 所美国少数族裔学校和机构提供旅行奖励。会后评估是通过对获奖者进行问卷调查来获得的，重点关注他们如何从参与中受益。 ASV会议继续为美国初级科学家提供与公认的病毒学家直接会面和互动的机会，并通过研讨会、讲习班、海报会议和特别卫星研讨会了解病毒研究领域的最新进展，包括人类、动物、植物、无脊椎动物和原核生物的病毒。 ASV 是最后举行的普通病毒学会议之一，提供了如此丰富的内容，直接增加了整个病毒世界中思想和技术交叉融合的机会。该范围涵盖病毒遗传学、复制、结构、发病机制、进化和出现、疾病控制和病毒与宿主相互作用等主题。 ASV 大会上提出的工作应用于传染病、免疫学、癌症、血液学、心脏病学、胃肠病学、神经病学和儿科等领域。 ASV 认为，以这种方式支持病毒学研究对美国在公共卫生和克服病毒性疾病所需的研究方面的努力产生了积极影响。
