Summary First held in Tuscon, AZ in 1995, the International Conferences on the Molecular Biology and Pathogenesis of Clostridia (ClostPath) bring together academics, clinicians, and industry scientists. Since its inception, the ClostPath conferences have been a popular forum to discuss the latest research and clinical findings regarding pathogenic Clostridia. Over the past 5 – 10 years, the field has seen a rapid advance in reliable and easy methods to introduce mutations into organisms that were otherwise considered genetically intractable. Because of this, there has been a rapid increase in the number of impactful studies that shed light on the fundamental mechanisms of pathogenesis. Moreover, with the ever-increasing ease of generating DNA sequencing, metagenomic / microbiome comparisons in the Clostridia have led to new hypotheses and new areas of exploration. For these reasons, it is imperative to continue with the tradition of face-to-face meetings to discuss these findings in intimate settings. The ClostPath 13 conference will be held September 19 – 23, 2023 in Banff, Canada and will provide a forum for the dissemination of new ideas and findings. The ClostPath conference will consist of an invited Keynote speaker and 12 invited plenary speakers. Each of the invited speakers will headline one of the sessions on: Gene Regulation; One Health; -omics; Treatments & Healthcare; Physiology; Microbiome; Torhu Shimizu Lecture; Toxins; Spores; Microbe – Microbe Interactions; Host Response to Infection. In each session, there will be oral presentations chosen from submitted abstracts that fit the session topic. Abstracts will be chosen so as to increase the visibility of junior scientists and scientists from under representative demographics and allow for diverse geography of our presenters. Also, Young Scientists will be chosen to moderate each of the sessions. This type of exposure will allow these burgeoning scientists to have an increased exposure in the scientific community. The objectives for the ClostPath 13 will be to continue to (i) provide a venue to allow for the presentation of cutting-edge research on pathogenic Clostridia; and (ii) encourage the participation of young scientists and junior faculty in each of the plenary sessions. These objectives will be supported by two Aims: Aim 1 is to provide an environment that supports the development of young scientists and scientists from diverse demographics. Aim 2 is to provide a setting that promotes the easy exchange of ideas, hypotheses, and innovative experimental strategies.

概括 分子生物学和分子生物学国际会议于 1995 年首次在亚利桑那州图斯孔举行 梭状芽胞杆菌 (Clostridia) 的发病机制 (ClostPath) 汇集了学术界、临床医生和工业界 科学家。自成立以来，ClosPath 会议一直是一个热门的讨论论坛 有关致病性梭菌的最新研究和临床发现。过去 5 – 10 多年来，该领域在引入突变的可靠且简单的方法方面取得了快速进展 转化为原本被认为在遗传上难以控制的生物体。正因为如此，有 有影响力的研究数量迅速增加，这些研究揭示了基本原理 发病机制。此外，随着 DNA 生成变得越来越容易 梭状芽胞杆菌的测序、宏基因组/微生物组比较产生了新的结果 假设和新的探索领域。由于这些原因，必须继续 面对面会议的传统，在亲密的环境中讨论这些发现。克洛斯路径 13 会议将于 2023 年 9 月 19 日至 23 日在加拿大班夫举行，并将为 传播新思想和新发现。 ClostPath 会议将由一位特邀主讲嘉宾和 12 位特邀全体会议组成 扬声器。每位受邀演讲者将在其中一场会议上发表主题演讲：基因调控； 一个健康； -组学；治疗和保健；生理;微生物组； Torhu Shimizu 讲座； 毒素；孢子；微生物——微生物相互作用；宿主对感染的反应。在每个会话中， 将从提交的摘要中选择适合会议主题的口头报告。 摘要的选择是为了提高初级科学家和来自不同领域的科学家的知名度。 根据具有代表性的人口统计数据，并允许我们的演讲者具有不同的地理位置。还， 青年科学家将被选为每场会议的主持人。这种类型的曝光将允许 这些新兴科学家在科学界有更多的曝光度。 ClostPath 13 的目标将是继续 (i) 提供一个场地，以便 介绍致病性梭菌的前沿研究； (ii) 鼓励 年轻科学家和初级教师参加每次全体会议。这些 目标将由两个目标支持：目标 1 是提供一个支持 年轻科学家和来自不同人口群体的科学家的发展。目标 2 是提供一个 促进思想、假设和创新实验轻松交流的环境 策略。
