项目摘要

DESCRIPTION: Tuberculosis (TB) is a serious global health problem and infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis was responsible for almost 2 million deaths in 2009. Sustained interactions between TB researchers are crucial for driving innovative research and for training the next generation of scientists. Collaborative, multidisciplinary partnerships and translational studies are needed to develop new therapeutics and vaccines for combating TB. The Southeastern Mycobacteria Meeting (SEMM), held in 2005, 2008 and 2010 have successfully brought together researchers in the Southeast, studying diverse aspects of Mtb and atypical mycobacteria, including pathogen biology, drug development, drug resistance mechanisms, immunology of the host in animal models and humans, epidemiology, clinical aspects of disease, vaccinology and designing novel treatment regimens. The 2010 meeting was held at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill and generated tremendous enthusiasm. The meeting attracted about 100 participants, featured posters and oral presentations, majority by students and postdoctoral researchers. This application describes plans for the Fourth SEMM to be held at Emory University in Atlanta, GA. Our goal is to make this an inexpensive meeting that will attract basic and clinical investigators, particularly students and postdoctoral fellows, from the Southeast region. The purpose of this meeting is to encourage regional collaborative research partnerships and foster an inclusive and stimulating learning environment for students and postdoctoral scientists who will be the next generation of TB researchers. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Tuberculosis is a serious global health problem we urgently need new drugs and vaccines to combat TB. It is very important to actively engage the next generation of TB researchers, i.e., those who are currently students and postdoctoral scientists, and provide opportunities for collaborative partnerships. This application describes plans for the Fourth Southeastern Mycobacteria Meeting (SEMM) to be held at Emory University in Atlanta, GA. We aim to encourage regional research partnerships and foster a stimulating environment for young and experienced scientists to exchange ideas.

说明：结核病是一个严重的全球健康问题，2009年结核分枝杆菌感染导致近200万人死亡。结核病研究人员之间的持续互动对于推动创新研究和培训下一代科学家至关重要。需要合作、多学科伙伴关系和转化性研究，以开发抗击结核病的新疗法和疫苗。2005年、2008年和2010年举行的东南分枝杆菌会议(SEMM)成功地将东南部的研究人员聚集在一起，研究结核分枝杆菌和非典型分枝杆菌的不同方面，包括病原体生物学、药物开发、耐药机制、动物模型和人类中宿主的免疫学、流行病学、疾病的临床方面、疫苗学和设计新的治疗方案。2010年的会议在北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校举行，引起了极大的热情。这次会议吸引了大约100人参加，有海报和口头演示，大部分是学生和博士后研究人员。这份申请描述了第四届半决赛将在佐治亚州亚特兰大的埃默里大学举行的计划。我们的目标是使这次会议成为一个廉价的会议，将吸引基础和临床研究人员，特别是学生和博士后研究员，来自东南部地区。这次会议的目的是鼓励区域合作研究伙伴关系，并为学生和博士后科学家创造一个包容和激励的学习环境，他们将成为下一代结核病研究人员。公共卫生相关性：结核病是一个严重的全球健康问题，我们迫切需要新的药物和疫苗来抗击结核病。非常重要的是，积极吸引下一代结核病研究人员，即那些目前是学生和博士后科学家的人，并为合作伙伴关系提供机会。本申请描述了将在佐治亚州亚特兰大的埃默里大学举行的第四届东南分枝杆菌会议(SEMM)的计划。我们的目标是鼓励区域研究伙伴关系，并为年轻和有经验的科学家创造一个鼓舞人心的交流思想的环境。
