PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT This proposal seeks partial support for the 2023 Gordon Research Conference (GRC) & Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on Cerebellum. The GRC will take place over 6 days accommodating up to 200 participants whereas the GRS will take place over 2 days immediately prior to the GRC, it is open only to the trainees and it is run exclusively by students and postdoctoral fellows. The GRS is scheduled for 8/5/23-8/6/23 and the GRC will be right after on 8/6/23-8/11/23 at Bates College in Lewiston, Maine, USA, about 140 miles from Boston. This conference brings together a diverse group, from established investigators to trainees from around the world; the GRC is considered the preeminent forum devoted to the cerebellar research. The cerebellum is now thought to control motor as well as cognitive behavior. Accordingly, there is striking evidence that cerebellar dysfunction causes a wide range of movement disorders such as ataxia, dystonia and tremor, but also a growing list of non-motor conditions including autism spectrum disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and schizophrenia. The centrality of cerebellar function, embedded in dozens of brain pathways, raises exciting questions about its potential as a therapeutic target. At this meeting, we will engage into a transverse dialog across levels of analyses and approaches, incorporating molecular biology, physiology and pathophysiology, development and behavior, from action through cognition, in order to build a novel integrated framework for understanding cerebellar function. Towards this, the scientific motivation of the 2023 Cerebellum GRC is to harness unique concepts and technologies from different disciplines to address challenging questions. With 42 speakers (50% females; 38% junior scientists; 10% minorities; remarkably, all accepted our invitation within 48hrs), we designed each session to tackle an unresolved problem, with experts to discuss neuroanatomy, developmental genetics, electrophysiology, computation, disease mechanisms and therapy development. Ideas from speakers and participants will converge to answer each burning question. This integrated approach to discussing the cerebellum will invite lively and collegial participation from students, postdocs and faculty from all disciplines, in every session. The GRS and GRC will each host a world renown Keynote speaker. In addition to the talks, poster sessions will provide a platform for attendees to present their unpublished work to a broader audience. We will also have a “Power Hour” to continue our efforts in promoting all forms of diversity in cerebellar science and an informal session to educate participants at all career levels on grantsmanship and strategies for writing successful grant applicants, with both sessions serving to strengthen our community. The overall theme of GRC Cerebellum 2023 will exploit the breadth and depth of the field to usher in the next generation of scientists. We are dedicated to fostering the future of women and underrepresented minorities.

项目摘要/摘要 该提案寻求对2023年戈登研究会议(GRC)和戈登研究的部分支持 小脑研讨会(GRS)。GRC将在6天内举行，最多可容纳200人 虽然GRS将在GRC之前的两天内举行，但只对学员开放，而且 完全由学生和博士后研究员运营。GRS计划在8/5/23-8/6/23和GRC 将于8/6/23-8/11/23在美国缅因州刘易斯顿的贝茨学院举行，距离波士顿约140英里。 这次会议汇聚了一个不同的群体，从老牌的调查人员到来自世界各地的实习生 世界；GRC被认为是致力于小脑研究的卓越论坛。小脑现在是 控制运动和认知行为的思想。因此，有明显的证据表明，小脑 功能障碍会导致广泛的运动障碍，如共济失调、肌张力障碍和震颤，但也会 越来越多的非运动性疾病包括自闭症谱系障碍，注意力缺陷多动障碍， 和精神分裂症。嵌入在数十条大脑通路中的小脑功能的中枢引发了兴奋 关于它作为治疗靶点的潜力的问题。在这次会议上，我们将进行横向对话 跨层次的分析和方法，结合了分子生物学、生理学和病理生理学， 发展和行为，从行动到认知，以建立一个新的综合框架 了解小脑功能。对此，2023年小脑GRC的科学动机是 利用不同学科的独特概念和技术来解决具有挑战性的问题。有42个 演讲者(50%女性；38%初级科学家；10%少数民族；值得注意的是，所有人都接受了我们的邀请 48小时)，我们设计了每个会议来解决一个悬而未决的问题，与专家讨论神经解剖学， 发育遗传学、电生理学、计算、疾病机制和治疗发展。 演讲者和与会者的想法将汇聚在一起回答每个紧迫的问题。这种综合方法 讨论小脑将邀请学生、博士后和教职员工积极参与。 来自所有学科，在每一次会议上。GRS和GRC将各自主办一位世界知名的主旨演讲者。在……里面 除了讲座，海报会议还将为与会者提供一个展示他们未发表的作品的平台 更广泛的受众。我们还将有一个“动力小时”，继续努力促进各种形式的多样性。 在小脑科学和一个非正式会议上，教育所有职业水平的参与者有关恩赐精神和 撰写成功的助学金申请者的策略，两次会议都有助于加强我们的社区。这个 GRC小脑2023的总体主题将开拓领域的广度和深度，迎来下一个 一代科学家。我们致力于促进妇女和代表不足的少数群体的未来。
