Project Summary We request partial support for the 20th Chronobiology Gordon Research Conference (GRC) and the accompanying 3rd Gordon Research Seminar (GRS), which will be held at Stoweflake Conference Center, Vermont from July 15th to July 21st, 2017. Funds received from the NIH will be used to support registration fees and/or travel costs for GRC and GRS participants, especially postdoctoral fellows and graduate students. The conference will focus on key research areas in chronobiology - a very interdisciplinary field that continuously and increasingly attracts scientists from many diverse research areas including neuroscience, sleep, metabolism and aging and uses approaches ranging from molecular genetics to theoretical biology. Given its emphasis on brain circadian circuits that regulate behavior and physiology, the interactions of clocks with metabolic factors, and the relevance of circadian regulation for aging as well as for age-related neurological disorders, the conference fits with the missions of NINDS, NIA and NIDDK). The subtheme of the conference is “Circadian regulation across physiological systems, lifespan and pathological conditions” emphasizing not only the integration of diverse research fields and organisms, but also the increasingly recognized critical importance of circadian clocks for health and disease. All speakers and discussion leaders work at the forefront of science and have been selected in consultation with renowned figures in our field representing the breadth of chronobiology research, leading to an extremely high-quality program. Special attention has been given (in the speaker selection process) and will be given (in the registration process) to cultural diversity, gender balance as well as to incorporating upcoming young scientists. Training will be further integrated in the program (i) through the GRS taking place for the third time; (ii) assigning eight additional short talks to students and postdoctoral fellows based on submitted abstracts and (iii) providing many opportunities for trainees to be involved in discussions with senior researchers. The specific objectives of the 2017 conference are: 1. To provide a forum for free, unhampered discussion of the latest (unpublished) chronobiology research. This conference will feature several measures towards this objective. 2. To bring together scientists from diverse research levels, ranging from molecular aspects of chronobiology to physiological and organismal rhythms to translational studies highlighting the importance of circadian clocks for health and disease. The latter will be helped by industry representatives, who are expected. 3. To identify priority themes for future research (e.g. impact of circadian regulation on neural disorders, aging, and metabolism) by openly debating knowledge gaps and especially controversies. 4. To continuously foster interactions between trainees and senior researchers by providing a high-quality and accessible arena for scientists at very different stages of their careers. We are also taking specific steps to encourage participation of trainees in Discussions, and to provide them with ready access to faculty.

项目概要 我们请求对第 20 届时间生物学戈登研究会议 (GRC) 和 伴随第三届戈登研究研讨会（GRS），该研讨会将在斯托弗莱克会议中心举行， 2017 年 7 月 15 日至 21 日在佛蒙特州。从 NIH 收到的资金将用于支持注册费 和/或 GRC 和 GRS 参与者的旅行费用，特别是博士后研究员和研究生。这 会议将重点关注时间生物学的关键研究领域——一个非常跨学科的领域，持续不断地 越来越多地吸引来自许多不同研究领域的科学家，包括神经科学、睡眠、新陈代谢和 衰老并使用从分子遗传学到理论生物学的各种方法。鉴于其对大脑的重视 调节行为和生理的昼夜节律回路、生物钟与代谢因素的相互作用以及 昼夜节律调节与衰老以及与年龄相关的神经系统疾病的相关性，会议适合 与 NINDS、NIA 和 NIDDK 的使命）。会议的副主题是“昼夜节律调节” 生理系统、寿命和病理状况”不仅强调多种因素的整合 研究领域和生物体，而且人们越来越认识到生物钟对于生物钟的至关重要性 健康和疾病。所有演讲者和讨论领袖都工作在科学的最前沿，并且都是经过挑选的 与我们领域代表时间生物学研究广度的知名人士协商，导致 一个非常高质量的节目。已给予特别关注（在演讲者选择过程中）并将 （在注册过程中）考虑文化多样性、性别平衡以及纳入即将到来的 年轻的科学家。培训将通过第三届 GRS 进一步纳入计划 (i) 时间; (ii) 根据提交的摘要，为学生和博士后研究员额外分配八场简短演讲 (iii) 为学员​​提供许多参与与高级研究人员讨论的机会。这 2017年会议的具体目标是： 1. 提供一个自由、不受阻碍地讨论最新（未发表）时间生物学研究的论坛。这 会议将采取多项措施来实现这一目标。 2. 汇集来自不同研究水平的科学家，从时间生物学的分子方面到 生理和有机节律转化研究强调生物钟的重要性 健康和疾病。预计后者将得到行业代表的帮助。 3. 确定未来研究的优先主题（例如昼夜节律调节对神经紊乱、衰老、 和新陈代谢）通过公开辩论知识差距，特别是争议。 4. 通过提供高质量和高水平的研究成果，不断促进学员和高级研究人员之间的互动。 为处于职业生涯不同阶段的科学家提供便利的舞台。我们也正在采取具体措施 鼓励学员参与讨论，并为他们提供随时接触教师的机会。
