DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Center for Gamma-Ray Imaging (CGRI) at the University of Arizona seeks partial support to organize the Fifth Biennial Workshop on Small-Animal SPECT. Based on the success of the previous four meetings, we have begun organizing another gathering of researchers who develop and/or use small-animal SPECT imaging systems. The workshop aims to: promote information exchange and collaboration between research groups developing systems for small-animal gamma-ray imaging applications; stimulate the use of SPECT systems in biomedical research; demonstrate the importance of dedicated, high-resolution, small-animal imaging systems to biomedical research; acquaint the participants with the capabilities of CGRI and explore ways in which CGRI can be of benefit to those participants; identify the current challenges for in vivo imaging of small animals and address issues of standards for experimental protocols and data. Funds from the NIH will cover registration and defray approximately half of accommodation expenses for up to 10 young investigators. Preference will be given to female and/or minority students and postdocs. In addition, we will actively recruit female and minority young investigators by encouraging to apply. This workshop is especially appealing to potential presenters because we will also be requiring each presenter to contribute a chapter to an entirely new and updated book tentatively entitled State of the Art in Small Animal SPECT Imaging. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The Center for Gamma-Ray Imaging (CGRI) at the University of Arizona seeks partial support to organize the Fifth Biennial Workshop on Small-Animal SPECT to bring together nearly 100 researchers working in the areas of system development, image analysis, pre-clinical imaging, and molecular imaging. Funds will go towards female and minority scholarship.

描述（由申请人提供）：亚利桑那大学伽马射线成像中心（CGRI）寻求部分支持，以组织第五届两年一度的小动物SPECT研讨会。基于前四次会议的成功，我们已经开始组织另一次开发和/或使用小动物SPECT成像系统的研究人员聚会。讲习班的目的是：促进开发小动物伽马射线成像应用系统的研究小组之间的信息交流和合作;鼓励在生物医学研究中使用SPECT系统;证明专用、高分辨率、小动物成像系统对生物医学研究的重要性;使参与者了解CGRI的能力，并探索CGRI如何使这些参与者受益;确定目前小动物体内成像的挑战，并解决实验方案和数据的标准问题。美国国立卫生研究院的资金将支付最多10名年轻研究人员的注册费用和大约一半的住宿费用。优先考虑女性和/或少数民族学生和博士后。此外，我们将通过鼓励申请的方式，积极招募女性和少数民族年轻研究人员。本次研讨会对潜在的演讲者特别有吸引力，因为我们还将要求每位演讲者为一本全新的更新书籍贡献一章，该书籍暂名为《小动物SPECT成像的最新技术》。 公共卫生相关性：亚利桑那大学伽马射线成像中心（CGRI）寻求部分支持，以组织第五届两年一度的小动物SPECT研讨会，汇集近100名在系统开发，图像分析，临床前成像和分子成像领域工作的研究人员。资金将用于女性和少数民族奖学金。
