PROJECT SUMMARY This proposal requests funding from the National Institute on Aging for the Biological Sciences (BS) Section Program at the 2021 Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM) of the Gerontological Society of America (GSA) in Phoenix, AZ. Our aim for BS programming is to highlight the highest-quality geroscience research with translational potential. We believe that the best work in the field will emerge when basic biological researchers exchange information about health-related human aging issues with medical researchers and practitioners, psychologists, sociologists, and public policy experts. In turn, improvements in clinical care and public health are likely to result when gerontologists from diverse disciplines better understand basic mechanisms of aging and are exposed to the latest and best research with the promise of yielding interventions to ameliorate aging and age-related disease. We in the BS Section take very seriously our responsibility to expose our members, those of the Biological Sciences and the GSA at large, to well-communicated, cutting-edge science that ultimately serves to inform and improve the work of all who attend. The ASM is situated uniquely in the U.S. to promote an interdisciplinary effort of this scope, and the 2021 November meeting in Phenix will provide an outstanding opportunity to expand the diversity of participating scientists. Since 2010, the BS Section has demonstrated quantifiable success in producing a scientific program of the highest possible quality and providing a forum to engender interaction and exchange of ideas among scientists from disparate fields. In November 2021, we propose to intensify and extend our efforts, through a single-track meeting program featuring emerging, translational concepts in the basic biology of aging; to promote discussion and networking among attendees across sections; to enact gender balance and diversity in the oral program; and to feature talented early career investigators prominently in Biological Sciences symposia. In Phenix, we will begin with a pre-meeting, half-day workshop on: “Organelle Interactions in the Regulation of Aging and Longevity”, Organized by Viviana Perez Montes and Yih-Woei Fridell (National Institute on Aging). During the meeting, 15 (non-competing) oral sessions will be held. Many of these sessions were suggested by GSA members following an open call for proposals, thus opening up the topic and speaker selection process. In addition, one speaker in many of the sessions will be selected by committee from submitted abstracts, and preference for these slots will be given to early career faculty or trainee (post-doc, resident, graduate student, or undergraduate) speakers. There will also be two poster sessions scheduled so as not to compete with any talks. We will encourage underrepresented scientists to apply for 8 minority scholar awards. Our program shows 30% of all speakers will be early career investigators, nearly half of the invited speakers are women, and 20% are from underrepresented minority groups.

项目摘要 该提案要求国家老龄化研究所为生物科学（BS）部门提供资金 在凤凰城举行的美国老年学会（GSA）2021年年度科学会议（ASM）上， AZ.我们的BS编程的目标是突出最高质量的老年科学研究与翻译 潜力我们相信，当基础生物学研究人员交流时， 与医学研究人员和从业人员，心理学家， 社会学家和公共政策专家。反过来，临床护理和公共卫生的改善可能会导致 当来自不同学科的老年学家更好地了解衰老的基本机制， 最新和最好的研究，有望产生干预措施，以改善衰老和与年龄相关的疾病。 疾病我们在BS组非常认真地对待我们的责任，揭露我们的成员， 生物科学和一般的GSA，良好的沟通，尖端科学，最终服务于 通知和改进所有与会者的工作。ASM位于美国独特的位置，旨在促进 这一范围的跨学科努力，以及2021年11月在凤凰城举行的会议将提供一个杰出的 扩大参与科学家多样性的机会。自2010年以来，BS组已证明 在制定尽可能高质量的科学计划方面取得了可量化的成功，并提供了一个论坛， 促进不同领域科学家之间的互动和思想交流。2021年11月，我们 建议通过一个以新兴、 衰老基础生物学的转化概念;促进与会者之间的讨论和网络 跨部门;在口语课程中实现性别平衡和多样性;并以有才华的早期职业为特色 研究人员在生物科学研讨会上的突出地位。在凤凰城，我们将开始与会前，半天 关于“衰老和长寿调节中的细胞器相互作用”的讲习班，由Viviana Perez组织 Montes和Yih-Woei Fridell（国家老龄化研究所）。会议期间，15场（非竞争性）口头会议 将举办其中许多会议是由GSA成员在公开征求建议后建议的， 开放主题和演讲者选择过程。此外，许多会议的一名发言者将是 由委员会从提交的摘要中选出，优先考虑这些职位将给予早期职业生涯 教师或实习生（博士后，居民，研究生或本科生）发言人。也会有两个 安排海报会议，以便不与任何会谈竞争。我们将鼓励代表性不足的科学家 申请8项少数民族学者奖。我们的计划显示，30%的演讲者将是早期职业调查员， 近一半的受邀演讲者是妇女，20%来自代表性不足的少数群体。
