Project Summary/Abstract This application seeks conference funding to provide partial support for registration fee and/or travel support for participants to attend the 2017 meetings of the Mammary Gland Biology Gordon Research Conference (GRC) and the newly established and already highly successful Gordon Research Seminar (GRS). The unique contribution and significance of this long-standing conference is that it will bring together developmental biologists, experts in breast cancer risk and prevention, stem cell biologists, lactation physiologists, breast pathologists, endocrinologists, cancer biologists and oncologists to collectively tackle important issues in mammary biology, breast cancer prevention and treatment. The goals for a successful program are to inspire important insights, energize new scientists and foster creative collaborations that will deepen our understanding of normal breast physiology and accelerate the eradication of breast cancer. The multipronged nature of these meetings guarantees a high degree of scientific cross-fertilization. The specific aims of the meeting will be to 1) provide a program of highly qualified, internationally recognized speakers to address outstanding scientific questions and controversies, 2) foster discussion, unfettered dialog and promote collaborations, and 3) contribute to the training and development of the next generation of scientists. The 2017 conference will focus on outstanding, and understudied, questions and recent discoveries related to breast cancer risk and prevention, the mammary gland genome and epigenome in development and breast cancer, mammary stem cells and development, lactation biology, mouse models of mammary tumorigenesis and their relevance to human cancer, tumor heterogeneity, dormancy and metastasis, the role of the stroma and the immune system. Experts in these fields were invited to share their most recent findings and discuss emerging challenges. These are important issues, and the innovative approach of pairing research into development, prevention and cancer within the same meeting will stimulate new and creative thinking. Short talks highlighting outstanding work by young investigators and trainees will be chosen from the submitted abstracts. Other unique features of this meeting include: (i) a tradition of sharing unpublished data; (ii) a program that includes substantial time for questions and open discussion, (iii) an environment that supports informal discussions outside of formal presentations; (iv) active participation and training environment for students and post-docs through the Gordon Research Seminar and the Gordon Research Conference; and (v) the encouragement of international collaborations and perspectives. In 2017, we will hold a “meet the expert” session at the end of the GRS, in which senior leaders meet with small groups of students and post-doctoral fellows to discuss science and career development. This session will be coordinated by GRC and GRS chairs

项目总结/摘要 本申请寻求会议资金，以提供部分注册费和/或差旅费支持， 参加2017年乳腺生物学戈登研究会议（GRC）的与会者 以及新成立的、已经非常成功的戈登研究研讨会（GRS）。独特的 这一长期会议的贡献和意义在于，它将汇集发展中国家， 生物学家，乳腺癌风险和预防专家，干细胞生物学家，哺乳生理学家，乳腺癌 病理学家，内分泌学家，癌症生物学家和肿瘤学家共同解决 乳腺生物学、乳腺癌防治。一个成功的计划的目标是激励 重要的见解，激励新的科学家和促进创造性的合作，将加深我们的理解 正常乳腺生理机能的改变，加速乳腺癌的根除。这些问题的多管齐下性质 会议保证了高度的科学交叉。会议的具体目标是：（1） 提供一个高素质的，国际公认的演讲者计划，以解决杰出的科学 问题和争议，2）促进讨论，自由对话，促进合作，以及3） 为下一代科学家的培养和发展做出贡献。 2017年会议将重点关注与以下方面有关的突出和未充分研究的问题和最新发现： 乳腺癌的风险和预防，乳腺基因组和表观基因组在发育和乳腺癌 癌症，乳腺干细胞和发育，哺乳生物学，乳腺肿瘤发生的小鼠模型， 它们与人类癌症、肿瘤异质性、休眠和转移的相关性，基质的作用和肿瘤细胞的增殖， 免疫系统这些领域的专家应邀分享了他们的最新研究结果，并讨论了新出现的 挑战这些都是重要的问题，将研究与发展结合起来的创新方法， 在同一次会议上讨论预防和癌症问题将激发新的创造性思维。简短的谈话强调 将从提交的摘要中选出年轻研究人员和受训人员的杰出工作。 本次会议的其他独特之处包括：（一）分享未公布数据的传统;（二） 包括大量的提问和公开讨论的时间，（iii）支持非正式讨论的环境 （四）积极参与，为学生提供培训环境， （v）研究院的研究计划;及 鼓励国际合作和展望。2017年，我们将举办“会见专家”会议 在GRS结束时，高级领导人与学生和博士后研究员小组会面， 讨论科学和职业发展。本次会议将由GRC和GRS主席协调
