DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application requests funding for partial support of the 2005-2009 Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Study Group (FASSG) meetings. These are held annually as a satellite conference preceding the Research Society on Alcoholism (RSA) meeting. The study group meeting represents a national annual gathering of basic, social, and clinical scientists whose work focuses on the topic of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD). The meeting provides a forum for presentation of topics of priority interest to the FASD research community, provides opportunities for discussion of collaborative research, and fosters interactions between established investigators and new investigators, including students. Although the meetings, to date, have been stimulating and well attended, a lack of adequate external financial support has limited attendees to those with adequate grant support to cover their meeting costs, and speakers to "local talent" willing to provide their time at no cost. Clearly, future meetings of the FASSG would greatly benefit with the ability of this group to provide funding to defray meeting costs (especially for travel and accomodations) for promising students and other new investigators who may be unable to attend, otherwise. Additionally, the membership could benefit from presentations by distinguished invited speakers who have interests that overlap with those of the FASSG, but that may be somewhat peripheral to the focus of the group; individuals who would not normally attend the meeting. Publication of a meeting synopsis, as proposed herein, will document the annual proceedings and afford availabilty of the meeting content to the scientific community. This application requests funding for travel, registration fees and partial living expenses for 5 new investigators (including students), and all meeting related expenses plus a modest honorarium for 3 invited speakers each year for a period of five (5) years.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请要求为2005-2009年胎儿酒精综合征研究组（FASSG）会议的部分支持提供资金。这些会议每年举行一次，作为酒精中毒研究学会（RSA）会议之前的卫星会议。该研究小组会议是基础、社会和临床科学家的全国年度聚会，他们的工作重点是胎儿酒精谱系障碍（FASD）。会议提供了一个论坛，介绍了优先感兴趣的FASD研究界的主题，提供了合作研究的讨论机会，并促进了既定的研究人员和新的研究人员，包括学生之间的互动。尽管迄今为止，这些会议令人振奋，出席人数很多，但由于缺乏足够的外部财政支助，与会者仅限于那些有足够赠款支助支付会议费用的人，发言者仅限于愿意免费提供时间的“当地人才”。显然，FASSG未来的会议将大大受益于该小组为有前途的学生和其他可能无法参加的新调查员提供会议费用（特别是旅行和住宿）的能力。此外，会员国还可以受益于杰出的特邀演讲者的演讲，这些演讲者的兴趣与FASSG的兴趣重叠，但可能与小组的重点无关;通常不会参加会议的个人。按本文件的建议出版会议概要，将记录年度会议记录，并向科学界提供会议内容。该申请要求为5名新研究员（包括学生）提供差旅费、注册费和部分生活费，以及所有会议相关费用，外加每年3名受邀演讲者的适度酬金，为期五（5）年。
