 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Since 1980, the biennial Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Musculoskeletal Biology and Bioengineering has been the leading forum for the presentation and discussion of new and unpublished information in the field. Because of the ample time and opportunity for discussion and interaction, this meeting has invariably led to new collaborations, initiatives and research directions. Post-conference evaluations consistently rate the conference as "outstanding." Funds are requested for partial support of the 2016 Musculoskeletal Biology and Bioengineering GRC to be held again at Proctor Academy in Andover, NH, a calm, scenic, and isolated site that fosters maximum interactions between the participants. The theme for the 2016 GRC is "Stepping Across Disciplines to Spur Innovation" and the program is designed to both encompass the interdisciplinary field of musculoskeletal (MSK) biology and bioengineering and specifically highlight how significant advances have occurred by the incorporation of new tools and emerging concepts. By bringing together and isolating for 5 days an eclectic combination of scientists, engineers, clinician-scientists, and clinicians from academia, government, industry and non-profit organizations, the proposed GRC promises to address this matter in a deep and substantial way. The meeting will consist of 9 sessions (all plenary and involving invited speakers) and 2 poster sessions. Afternoons will be free for interactive recreation and discussion; the total number of attendees is capped at 180 to encourage interaction. Of note, and for just the second time, this GRC will be preceded by a two-day Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) at the same location. Funds are requested for partial support of this GRS, whose theme "Getting a Step Ahead in Musculoskeletal Research" builds on the GRC, with an attendance of 50 individuals expected, many of whom will attend the GRC. The co-Chairs of the GRS are working closely with the Chair and Vice-Chair of the GRC to develop the program, which will include a mentoring component focused on both traditional and non-traditional pathways towards meaningful contributions in MSK biology and bioengineering research. The GRS will consist of 1 keynote lecture, 2 oral sessions, 2 poster sessions, and a career panel. The Chair and Vice-Chair of the GRC will both attend, as will a number of other GRC attendees, who will be integrated into the program to share their insights. Both the GRC and GRS will strive to involve women, underrepresented minorities and persons with disabilities.

 自1980年以来，两年一度的肌肉骨骼生物学和生物工程戈登研究会议（GRC）一直是该领域新的和未发表的信息的介绍和讨论的主要论坛。由于有充足的时间和机会进行讨论和互动，这次会议总是导致新的合作，倡议和研究方向。会后评价一致将会议评为“出色”。“资金要求部分支持2016年肌肉骨骼生物学和生物工程GRC将再次在新罕布什尔州安多弗的普罗克特学院举行，这是一个平静，风景优美，与世隔绝的地方，可以促进参与者之间的最大互动。2016年GRC的主题是“跨越学科，推动创新”，该计划旨在涵盖肌肉骨骼（MSK）生物学和生物工程的跨学科领域，并特别强调如何通过纳入新工具和新兴概念而取得重大进展。通过将来自学术界、政府、工业界和非营利组织的科学家、工程师、临床科学家和临床医生聚集在一起并隔离5天，拟议的GRC承诺以深入和实质性的方式解决这一问题。会议将包括9场会议（均为全体会议，并邀请演讲者参加）和2场海报会议。下午将免费进行互动娱乐和讨论;与会者总数上限为180人，以鼓励互动。值得注意的是，这是第二次，在同一地点举行为期两天的戈登研究研讨会（GRS）。要求提供资金，以部分支持这一GRS，其主题是“在肌肉骨骼研究中取得进展”，建立在GRC的基础上，预计将有50人出席，其中许多人将参加GRC。GRS的联合主席正在与GRC的主席和副主席密切合作，以制定该计划，其中将包括一个指导部分，重点是传统和非传统途径，以实现MSK生物学和生物工程研究的有意义的贡献。GRS将包括1个主题演讲，2个口头会议，2个海报会议和一个职业小组。GRC的主席和副主席都将出席，其他一些GRC与会者也将出席，他们将被纳入该计划，分享他们的见解。克罗地亚共和国政府和塞尔维亚政府都将努力让妇女、代表性不足的少数民族和残疾人参与进来。
