Abstract The main goal of the Physical Virology Gordon Research Conference (GRC) is to facilitate interdisciplinary interactions and collaborations that will advance the fields of virology and nano-medicine by overcoming traditional boundaries between relevant disciplines. Bursts of progress in biomedical research are often the result of bringing conceptual and experimental tools from various disciplines to bear on a problem of common interest, in this case the structure, physical properties, and utility of viruses and virus-like self-assembled systems. While this topic is of interest to physicists, chemists, and biologists alike, scientists from these diverse fields rarely attend the same meeting. Very often, scientists in one discipline are simply unaware of the barriers limiting progress in another. From its inception in 2009, the Physical Virology GRC has been a focal meeting for a growing community of researchers that span these fields, but have common interests in the biology, chemistry, and nanotechnology of viruses and virus-inspired structures. Our goals are as follows. Assemble an outstanding program of leading investigators, students, and postdocs that is internationally and socially diverse in the field of physical virology, under the format of GRC gatherings. NIH support is essential to raising sufficient funds to allow scientists, both junior and senior, from distant locations to attend the conference. The extended free time at the GRC provides a broad opportunity to explore collaboration. For example, mixing researchers with interests in virology and nanotechnology has already opened opportunities to generate new therapeutic approaches and new materials. The GRC format encourages a dialectic approach to scientific talks. The prerequisite for such a dialog is a sustained effort to communicate research across scientific boundaries. A major theme is to introduce students and postdocs to physical virology as an interdisciplinary field, and to the key principal investigators in the field. The Gordon Research seminar preceding the GRC will allow students to freely exchange ideas in a non-intimidating environment. A specific goal of funding for this meeting is to support attendance of students, postdocs, women and under-represented minorities. The GRC schedule has been specifically adapted to include poster talks in every session to encourage active participation of these young scientists.

摘要 物理病毒学戈登研究会议(GRC)的主要目标是促进跨学科 相互作用和合作，将通过克服 相关学科之间的传统界限。生物医学研究的突飞猛进往往是 将来自不同学科的概念和实验工具应用于共同的问题的结果 有趣的是，在这种情况下，病毒和类病毒自组装的结构、物理性质和用途 系统。虽然物理学家、化学家和生物学家都对这个话题感兴趣，但来自不同领域的科学家 菲尔兹很少参加同一次会议。很多时候，某一学科的科学家根本没有意识到这些障碍 限制了另一个方面的进展。自2009年成立以来，物理病毒学GRC一直是一个焦点会议 对于跨越这些领域、但对生物学有共同兴趣的越来越多的研究人员来说， 化学，以及病毒和受病毒启发的结构的纳米技术。 我们的目标是：召集一批优秀的研究人员、学生和博士后 在物理病毒学领域，在GRC聚会的形式下，这是国际和社会多样化的。 美国国立卫生研究院的支持对于筹集足够的资金使初级和高级科学家能够 出席会议的地点。GRC延长的空闲时间为探索提供了广阔的机会 协作。例如，将研究人员与病毒学和纳米技术的兴趣结合在一起已经 创造了产生新的治疗方法和新材料的机会。GRC格式 鼓励以辩证的方式进行科学讨论。这种对话的先决条件是持续努力，以 跨越科学界限交流研究成果。 一个主要的主题是向学生和博士后介绍物理病毒学作为一个跨学科的领域，以及 该领域的主要主要调查人员。GRC之前的戈登研究研讨会将允许学生 在一个没有威胁性的环境中自由交流思想。这次会议资金的一个具体目标是 支持学生、博士后、妇女和代表不足的少数群体参加会议。GRC时间表有 经过专门调整，在每一次会议中都包括海报演讲，以鼓励这些 年轻的科学家。 PHS 398/2590(06/09版)页面续格式页面
