Abstract Funds are being requested to provide partial support for the 17th Annual South Central Medical Mycology (SCMM) meeting to be held in the student union on the campus of Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK on November 22-23, 2019. SCMM prides itself on bringing a critical mass of medical mycology researchers together from the south central region of the United States to share the latest research being conducted in the various labs, provide opportunities for collaboration, and promote the development of junior trainees in participating laboratories. The meeting site rotates between university-centered locations in the south central region where fungal-centric laboratories are located. Principal Investigators and students/postdocs from ~15 laboratories usually attend annually (including laboratories in the host city). In total there are upwards of 20 laboratories that have attended one or more of the meetings depending on the location site. Hence, a strong and growing critical mass of medical mycologists have supported this meeting and led to its longevity and significance over the past 17 years. Although the meeting format has evolved over the years, the current format has focused on oral presentations by trainees regarding their most exciting and impactful unpublished data. The small group setting provides a welcoming environment that has been successful in promoting discussion and constructive feedback for trainees. Hence, the primary objectives of the meeting are to 1) bring regionally-based medical mycologists together to share research, initiate collaborations, and provide a venue for trainees to present their latest work, and 2) promote the development of young/junior scientists as a mentoring tool to facilitate their transition into academic scientists or their chosen career path. The funding requested is for trainee travel awards (n=10) and to partially cover travel costs for the keynote speaker.

摘要 正在申请资金，以提供部分支持第17届年度中南医学真菌学 （SCMM）会议将在位于俄克拉荷马州斯蒂尔沃特的俄克拉荷马州州立大学校园的学生会举行 2019年11月22日至23日。SCMM引以为豪的是， 来自美国中南部地区的研究人员一起分享了在美国进行的最新研究。 各种实验室，提供合作机会，并促进初级学员的发展， 参与实验室。会议地点在中南部以大学为中心的地点之间轮换 以真菌为中心的实验室所在地。主要研究者和学生/博士后从~15 实验室通常每年参加（包括东道城市的实验室）。总共有20多个 参加过一次或多次会议的实验室，具体取决于地点。因此，一个强大的 越来越多的医学真菌学家支持这次会议，并使会议持续了很长时间， 在过去的17年里，意义重大。虽然会议形式多年来不断演变，但目前 格式侧重于学员的口头介绍，关于他们最令人兴奋和最有影响力的未发表的 数据小组设置提供了一个温馨的环境，已成功地促进 为学员提供讨论和建设性反馈。因此，会议的主要目标是：1） 区域性的医学真菌学家一起分享研究，发起合作，并提供一个场所， 2）促进青年/初级科学家的发展， 指导工具，以促进他们过渡到学术科学家或他们选择的职业道路。 所需经费用于支付受训人员旅费（n=10）和主旨发言人的部分旅费。
