DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is an application requesting support for the seventh Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on "In Vivo Magnetic Resonance." This meeting will cover an array of topics spanning the use of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and spectroscopy in cells, animals, and humans; addressing both basic research and clinical concerns. Particular emphases will be placed on just emerging technological, biological, and health related issues that will significantly impact the growth of this remarkable imaging field. The seventh conference will be held July 29 - August 03, 2012, at Colby College, Waterville, ME. The Chair of the In Vivo MRI Gordon Conference is Greg J. Stanisz, Ph.D., Professor in the Department of Medical Biophysics, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada and Academic Director of the Small Animal Imaging Facility, Sunnybrook Heath Sciences Centre, Toronto, ON. The vice-Chair is Penny Gowland, Ph.D., Professor of Physics & Astronomy, University of Nottingham, UK. The sixth In Vivo MR GRC was held in 2010. As detailed in this proposal, this conference was extremely successful (77% attendees evaluated this conference as "the best scientific meeting attended in 2010"). Notable advances in magnet field strength, instrumentation, imaging speed, and in a wide array of new imaging techniques, methods of data analysis on novel MRI contrast agents continue to create a rich environment for rapid growth. It is both timely and necessary to gather together the leading individuals and future investigators to address, in depth, as is done at no other scientific venue, the next ventures of this important field. The conference will include scientific sessions, each with two to three speakers and a discussion leader. There will also be poster sessions (most participants will be expected to present a poster) and discussions designed to facilitate close interaction between the participants. By design, GRC meetings are small by conventional standards (approximately 150- 200 participants) but participants will be invited and recruited in a manner to encourage and ensure attendance by a diverse group of junior and senior investigators representing academic and government institutions and individuals from corporate research programs. Students and postdoctoral fellows will be strongly encouraged to attend and student stipends to offset some of the conference costs will be offered to most of the student attendees. Young investigators will be included in the oral presentations. The support requested herein will be used to facilitate the attendance (conference fees and/or travel costs) of junior investigators (emphasis on women, minorities, and the disabled). PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Support is requested for the seventh Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on "In Vivo Magnetic Resonance" (July 29 - August 3, 2012). Magnetic resonance techniques play a critical role in the delivery of high quality health care. This meeting will emphasize just emerging technological, biological, and health related issues that will significantly impact the growth and application of this remarkable imaging field.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是一份申请，请求支持第七届戈登研究会议（GRC）的“体内磁共振”。“这次会议将涵盖一系列主题，涵盖磁共振（MR）成像和光谱在细胞，动物和人类中的应用;解决基础研究和临床问题。特别重点将放在刚刚出现的技术，生物和健康相关的问题，将显着影响这一显着的成像领域的增长。 第七次会议将于2012年7月29日至8月3日在缅因州沃特维尔的科尔比学院举行。体内MRI戈登会议的主席是Greg J. Stanisz博士，加拿大安大略省多伦多市多伦多大学医学生物物理学系教授，安大略省多伦多市Sunnybrook健康科学中心小动物成像设施学术主任。副主席是Penny Gowland博士，英国诺丁汉大学物理学和天文学教授。第六届In Vivo MR GRC于2010年举行。如本提案所述，本次会议非常成功（77%的与会者评价本次会议为“2010年参加的最佳科学会议”）。在磁场强度、仪器、成像速度以及各种新成像技术、新型MRI造影剂的数据分析方法方面的显著进步继续为快速增长创造了丰富的环境。这是及时和必要的聚集在一起的领导人和未来的研究人员，以解决，深入，因为没有在其他科学场所，这一重要领域的下一个企业。会议将包括科学会议，每次会议有两到三名发言者和一名讨论负责人。还将举办海报展示会（预计大多数与会者将展示海报）和讨论，以促进与会者之间的密切互动。根据设计，GRC会议按传统标准是小型的（约150- 200名参与者），但参与者将被邀请和招募，以鼓励和确保代表学术和政府机构的初级和高级研究人员以及企业研究计划的个人的多样化群体的出席。强烈鼓励学生和博士后研究员参加，并向大多数学生与会者提供学生津贴，以抵消部分会议费用。年轻的研究人员将参加口头报告。本报告所要求的支助将用于便利初级调查员（重点是妇女、少数民族和残疾人）出席会议（会议费和/或差旅费）。 公共卫生相关性：请求支持第七届戈登研究会议（GRC）“体内磁共振”（2012年7月29日至8月3日）。磁共振技术在提供高质量的医疗保健方面发挥着关键作用。本次会议 将强调新兴的技术，生物和健康相关的问题，将显着影响这一显着的成像领域的增长和应用。
