Project Summary In this R13 application we request support for the 2nd Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on “Neurobiology of Drug Addiction,” which will take place in August 2020 in Maine, USA. The objectives of this GRC are to foster open discussion of novel research developments, build new collaborations, and propel the next generation of both scientific advances in addiction research and addiction neuroscience researchers. To achieve these objectives, we will pursue the following four specific aims at the meeting: 1) Provide an international forum to brainstorm about cutting edge, multidisciplinary research at the forefront of addiction neuroscience; 2) Introduce breakthrough neuroscientific techniques that facilitate the understanding of brain mechanisms driving compulsive drug use and relapse; 3) Promote interactions among young and senior investigators and exchange of ideas that will shape the future directions of addiction neuroscience; and 4) Foster development of the next generation of addiction researchers by encouraging the participation of students and postdoctoral fellows who are committed to addiction research. The conference focuses on presentations and discussions at the frontiers of addiction research. The scope of the lectures will be confined to basic and clinical studies involving addictive drugs (including alcohol) and the nervous system and will focus on mechanisms of compulsive drug use and relapse. The meeting will also break down barriers to progress by uniting investigators with synergistic and complementary expertise in areas ranging from molecular mechanisms to translational clinical research and addiction theory. The conference will provide a forum to address the latest developments in addiction research in an open and highly interactive GRC format, which includes formal talks interspersed with ample discussion time, poster sessions, and informal discussion periods that cultivate communication and collaborations. This conference setup differs from that of other meetings in the field and will provide a unique opportunity for close interactions among investigators at all stages of their careers and among investigators with different research approaches and cultural perspectives. Concerted efforts to support participation of students, postdoctoral fellows, young investigators, and under-represented minorities (see budget proposal) will nurture the growth of the next generation of addiction researchers. For 2020, we have added an accompanying GRS to provide a forum for students and postdoctoral fellows; in addition, a substantial number of GRC talks will be delivered by early career PIs. We envision that the Neurobiology of Drug Addiction GRC will significantly advance our understanding of the neural mechanisms underlying drug addiction and stimulate the development of novel hypotheses, research directions, and therapeutic approaches.

项目摘要 在这个R13应用程序中，我们请求支持第二届戈登研究会议（GRC）的"神经生物学 "，将于2020年8月在美国缅因州举行。本GRC的目标是 促进对新的研究发展的公开讨论，建立新的合作，并推动下一个 成瘾研究和成瘾神经科学研究人员的科学进步。到 为了达到这些目标，我们将在会议上实现以下四个具体目标： 国际论坛集思广益，在成瘾的最前沿进行多学科的前沿研究 神经科学; 2）引入突破性的神经科学技术，促进对大脑的理解 推动强迫性药物使用和复吸的机制; 3）促进年轻人和老年人之间的互动 研究人员和思想交流，将塑造成瘾神经科学的未来方向;以及4） 通过鼓励以下人员的参与，促进下一代成瘾研究人员的发展 致力于成瘾研究的学生和博士后研究员。 会议的重点是在成瘾研究的前沿介绍和讨论。的范围 讲座将限于基础和临床研究，涉及成瘾药物（包括酒精）和 神经系统，并将侧重于强迫性药物使用和复发的机制。会议还将 通过将具有协同和互补专长的调查人员联合起来， 从分子机制到转化临床研究和成瘾理论。会议将 提供一个论坛，以开放和高度互动的方式讨论成瘾研究的最新发展。 GRC格式，其中包括正式会谈，穿插着充足的讨论时间，海报会议， 非正式的讨论时间，培养沟通和合作。 这次会议的安排与该领域的其他会议不同，将为以下方面提供一个独特的机会： 调查人员在职业生涯的各个阶段以及具有不同背景的调查人员之间的密切互动 研究方法和文化视角。共同努力支持学生参与， 博士后研究员、年轻的研究人员和代表性不足的少数民族（见预算提案）将培养 下一代成瘾研究者的成长。2020年，我们增加了一个附带的GRS 为学生和博士后研究员提供一个论坛;此外，大量的GRC讲座将 由早期职业私家侦探提供我们设想，药物成瘾GRC的神经生物学将显着 推进我们对药物成瘾的神经机制的理解，并刺激 发展新的假说、研究方向和治疗方法。
