Project Summary This proposal requests partial support for the 2017 Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Epigenetics, entitled Epigenetics in action: from mechanisms to biological impacts. This conference began in 1995 and has earned an international reputation as a premier meeting in its field. The Epigenetics GRC is known for the quality of scientific presentations that embrace the philosophy of reporting unpublished exciting new discoveries at the forefront of epigenetics. This conference is central to the NIH mission because epigenetics brings understanding to mechanisms used in decoding and regulating genomes during differentiation and development, processes critical for human development and health. The major goals of the 2017 Epigenetics GRC are to establish a rich scientific program that captures the breadth of epigenetics, foster new cross disciplinary collaborations by bringing together investigators who might not normally interact, and promote careers of young investigators through initiatives that integrate attendees of the Gordon Research Seminar (GRS), a preconference held for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. The Epigenetics GRC will include invited speakers at all career levels, with efforts to ensure diversity and balance among speakers. The scientific program will reflect resolve to support women scientists and participants in underrepresented populations, using strategies to build a strong participant pool that will be used to select speakers. Together, these aims will provide a highly dynamic conference that motivate the field and energize the new generation of investigators.

项目摘要 该提案要求对2017年戈登表观遗传学研究会议（GRC）的部分支持， 题为“表观遗传学在行动：从机制到生物影响”。该会议始于1995年， 赢得了国际声誉，成为该领域的首要会议。表观遗传学GRC以其 科学报告的质量，包括报告未发表的令人兴奋的新的哲学 表观遗传学前沿的发现。这次会议是国家卫生研究院使命的核心，因为表观遗传学 了解在分化过程中解码和调节基因组的机制， 发展，对人类发展和健康至关重要的进程。 2017年表观遗传学GRC的主要目标是建立一个丰富的科学计划， 表观遗传学的广度，通过汇集研究人员， 通常可能不会互动，并通过整合的举措促进年轻调查人员的职业生涯， 戈登研究研讨会（GRS）的与会者，为研究生举行的会前会议， 博士后表观遗传学GRC将包括所有职业水平的特邀演讲者，努力 确保发言者之间的多样性和平衡。科学计划将反映支持妇女的决心 科学家和参与者在代表性不足的人群，使用战略，以建立一个强大的参与者库 将用于选择发言人。总之，这些目标将提供一个高度动态的会议， 激励该领域并激励新一代的研究人员。
