ABSTRACT The 12th Mid-Atlantic Microbial Pathogenesis Meeting (MAMPM) will be held February 5-7, 2023 at Wintergreen Resort and Conference Center near Charlottesville, Virginia. The purpose of the biennial MAMPM is to foster communication and collaboration among scientists engaged in microbial pathogenesis research in the Mid-Atlantic Region (North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, The District of Columbia, West Virginia, and Delaware). Numerous NIH/NIAID-funded investigators studying the virulence mechanisms of pathogens of importance to human health are located in this geographic region and have participated in multiple MAMPMs. MAMPM attracts scientists both from within and outside the Mid-Atlantic region; the 11th MAMPM in 2022 featured 194 attendees from Mid-Atlantic states and the District of Columbia as well as from 8 states outside the region. The meeting achieved near-maximum registration despite the pandemic. One of MAMPM’s key goals is to provide students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty with the opportunity to present their work to a knowledgeable audience, focused in this discipline, in a collegial yet scientifically rigorous environment. MAMPM is a formative experience for young scientists’ professional development and remains one of the most appealing and positively evaluated aspects of this conference. MAMPM 2023 will consist of four sessions over three days. Each session will feature an invited keynote speaker and talks by graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and a limited number of junior principal investigators, selected from the submitted abstracts by the Scientific Program Committee. Drs. Sunny Shin (U Penn), Carlos Orihuela (U Alabama Birmingham), Craig Altier (Cornell Univ.), and Patricia Champion (Univ Notre Dame) have agreed to be the MAMPM 2021 Keynote Speakers. Two highly interactive poster sessions will be held to allow the opportunity for all participants to present and discuss their work face-to-face. MAMPM 2023 will be publicized through advertisements in professional publications, social media posts, and direct electronic mailings to relevant departments at academic institutions, government and private laboratories within the region and to members of the local American Society for Microbiology branches. MAMPM remains committed to ensuring a balanced representation of women, underrepresented minorities, and persons of disability in the leadership, conference participants, and speakers, including keynote speakers. The conference will also feature a moderated, diversity-focused event that is open to all conference attendees; based on feedback from MAMPM 2022, the discussion will be driven by topics and questions, solicited from attendees prior to the meeting, related to diversity and inclusivity in the microbial pathogenesis field. In addition, the meeting will include “Dine with a Keynote” opportunities for trainees to discuss professional development issues.

摘要 第十二届中大西洋微生物致病会议(MAMPM)将于2023年2月5日至7日在 弗吉尼亚州夏洛茨维尔附近的冬青度假村和会议中心。两年一度的会议的目的 MAMPM旨在促进从事微生物发病机制研究的科学家之间的交流和合作 大西洋中部地区(北卡罗来纳州、弗吉尼亚州、马里兰州、哥伦比亚特区、西部)的研究 弗吉尼亚州和特拉华州)。许多由NIH/NIAID资助的研究人员正在研究沙门氏菌的毒力机制 对人类健康具有重要意义的病原体位于这一地理区域，并参与了 多个MAMPM。MAMPM吸引了大西洋中部地区内外的科学家；第11届 2022年的MAMPM有来自大西洋中部各州和哥伦比亚特区的194名与会者以及来自8个州的8名与会者 该区域以外的州。尽管发生了大流行，会议还是获得了几乎最高的登记人数。 MAMPM的主要目标之一是为学生、博士后研究员和初级教师提供 有机会向知识渊博的观众展示他们的作品，专注于这一学科，但又是合议的 科学严谨的环境。MAMPM是年轻科学家职业生涯中的一次成长经历 这是本次会议最吸引人和得到积极评价的方面之一。 MAMPM 2023将在三天内分为四个会议。每一场会议都将邀请一位主旨发言人 由研究生、博士后研究员和有限数量的初级校长进行演讲和演讲 研究人员，从科学计划委员会提交的摘要中挑选出来。Sunny Shin博士(美国 宾夕法尼亚大学)、卡洛斯·奥里韦拉(阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校)、克雷格·阿尔蒂尔(康奈尔大学)和帕特里夏·冠军(大学 巴黎圣母院)已同意担任MAMPM 2021年的主旨发言人。两个高度互动的海报会议 将举行会议，让所有与会者有机会面对面地介绍和讨论他们的工作。MAMPM 2023年将通过在专业出版物、社交媒体帖子和直接 向学术机构、政府和私人化验所的相关部门发送电子邮件 该地区和当地的美国微生物学会分会的成员。 MAMPM仍然致力于确保妇女代表的平衡，代表人数不足 少数群体和领导层中的残疾人、会议参与者和演讲者，包括主旨 扬声器。大会还将举办一场以多样性为重点的主持活动，对所有会议开放 与会者；根据MAMPM 2022的反馈，讨论将由主题和问题驱动， 会前向与会者征询，与微生物致病机理中的多样性和包容性有关 菲尔德。此外，会议还将包括供学员讨论的《与主题共进晚餐》机会 职业发展问题。
