 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this proposal is to seek support for the 2016 Annual Meeting of the American Society for Investigative Pathology (ASIP), which will be held at the San Diego Convention Center April 2-6, in conjunction with the Experimental Biology convention. ASIP's Annual Meeting provides a unique forum for presentation and sharing of cutting-edge research in experimental pathology. The target audience and subject matter for the meeting are diverse but united by a common focus on mechanisms of disease. The theme of the ASIP 2016 Annual Meeting is `Deciphering Disease Mechanisms and the Prevention and Treatment of Disease.' Reflecting the interests of the ASIP membership, the 2016 Annual Meeting contains strong components in neoplasia, stem cells, and angiogenesis. Topics include cancer health disparities, triple-negative breast cancer, tumor metabolic pathways, liver cancers, liver progenitors, angiogenesis in organ development and disease, glial oncogenesis, pancreatic cancer, hematologic malignancies, and advances in imaging techniques for pathological analysis that have direct relevance to the study of cancer. Application of insights gained from basic research to therapy and prevention will be a particular focus throughout. The five-day program comprises symposia, workshops, and lectures by award recipients, as well as abstract-driven minisymposia and poster sessions. It also features an innovative, focused, full-day `mini-meeting', which is devoted to cutting-edge topics in breast cancer metastasis, therapy, and prevention. The program further provides a number of educational initiatives, both targeted and of interest to the biomedical research community as a whole. These include two linked sessions on how to network and choose a career path in biomedical science, as well as an interactive session on proper use of statistics in scientific research. ASIP regards promotion of the career development of trainee and young investigators as an extremely important aspect of the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, the meeting provides not only special events designed for their needs but also sessions that showcase their work. Similarly, the Program Committee works hard to ensure diversity among the participants with respect to gender, ethnic/racial group, and stage of career. The sole specific aim of this application is to promote the participation of trainees and junior investigators in the Annual Meeting through expansion of travel award programs and provision of special sessions targeted to graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, clinical residents and fellows in pathology, and faculty in the early stages of their careers.
