项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY Changes in placental structure and function not only cause serious pregnancy complications but also determine life-long health by programming the fetus for future metabolic and cardiovascular disease. Unfortunately, the mechanisms linking altered placental function to poor short- and long-term outcomes are complex and remain largely unknown. To better understand placental biology and pathophysiology, a multidisciplinary approach utilizing a wide array of cutting edge technologies is required. Progress in this area is hampered by the paucity of scientific meetings focused on placental biology. The primary objective of this R13 grant proposal is to meet the urgent need of a multidisciplinary, interactive forum for dissemination of novel concepts and exchange of ideas in placental research by featuring exceptional speakers working in cutting-edge areas of research. The secondary objective is to provide a low cost, high-quality learning environment, in the area of placental biology, which will encourage attendance and active participation by a diverse group of in training and early investigators. In our conference plan we seek support for an annual one- day conference as a satellite meeting the day before the Annual Scientific Meeting of the Society of Reproductive Investigation (SRI). By this design we will maximize the impact of the meeting and will allow for attendance of a diverse group of basic scientists and clinical investigators ranging from graduate students to well established researchers. The meeting will allow ample time for interaction, informal discussion and networking and is anticipated to attract 130-150 attendees each year. The program will have a balanced mix of “state of the art” lectures presented by the leaders in the field, emerging concept presentations, and shorter talks by trainees. All speakers will be mandated to provide ample time for questions and discussion. This proposal is significant because the meeting is timely and will promote novel scientific inquiry into placental biology, which is expected to pave the way for future innovation to develop approaches to monitor placental function in vivo and to target the placenta for intervention. The proposal includes numerous innovative aspects. For example, we propose to facilitate the utilization and adaptation of emerging concepts from other research fields by inviting one speaker each year that works in a research area other than placental biology. To provide ample opportunities for early career investigators to connect, discuss, and interact with the speakers we propose to organize the conference lunch so that in training investigators will have direct access to speakers in a small group. The proposed meeting is expected to have significant and sustained impact on the field because it is unique in bringing together world-leading investigators representing diverse but complementary expertise in a creative and interactive forum, which is necessary to address the complex scientific questions pertaining to the role of placenta in determining health and disease from fetal life to adulthood.

项目摘要位置结构和功能的变化不仅会导致严重的怀孕并发症，还会引起严重的怀孕并发症通过为未来的代谢和心血管疾病编程胎儿来确定终身健康。不幸的是，将更改的位置功能与短期和长期结局相关的机制是复杂并在很大程度上未知。为了更好地了解斑点生物学和病理生理学，需要使用多种尖端技术的多学科方法。在这个领域的进展由于缺乏专注于斑点生物学的科学会议的缺乏，这受到了阻碍。这是这个的主要目标 R13赠款提案是满足跨学科的互动论坛的迫切需要新颖的概念和在Placenal研究中的思想交流，以杰出的演讲者为特色尖端研究领域。次要目标是提供低成本，高质量的学习环境，在Placenal Biology领域，这将鼓励A 多样化的培训和早期研究人员。在我们的会议计划中，我们寻求年度一年的支持 - 一日会议作为卫星会议，前一天生殖研究（SRI）。通过这种设计，我们将最大化会议的影响，并将允许从研究生到一群基础科学家和临床研究人员的潜水者群体的出席成熟的研究人员。会议将为互动，非正式讨论和联网，预计每年会吸引130-150名与会者。该程序将具有平衡的组合领导人在领导人，新兴的概念演示和较短的“现状”演讲学员的会谈。所有演讲者都将被要求提供足够的时间进行问题和讨论。这提案很重要，因为会议是及时的，并且将促进新颖的科学询问生物学，预计将为未来的创新铺平道路，以开发监视场所的方法在体内发挥作用，并靶向plapeta进行干预。该提案包括许多创新方面。例如，我们建议促进其他来自其他概念的利用和适应每年通过邀请邀请一个发言人在研究领域工作的一名演讲者。到为早期职业调查人员提供了足够的机会，可以与演讲者联系，讨论和互动我们建议组织会议午餐，以便在培训中，调查人员可以直接进入一小群的演讲者。预计拟议的会议将对领域是因为它独特地将代表多样化的世界领先的调查员聚集在一起在创意和互动论坛中完全专业知识，这对于解决综合大楼是必不可少的科学问题与保单在确定从胎儿生命到健康和疾病的作用有关成年。
