DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this application is to seek support for an APS Conference on "Sex Steroids and Gender in Cardiovascular-Renal Physiology and Pathophysiology," scheduled for July 15-19, 2009 in Denver, CO. The first goal of this conference is to bring together clinical and basic research scientists who study the role of sex steroids in cardiovascular and renal disease and provide a forum for the discussion of ongoing and future studies in this area. The program is designed to allow prominent and junior researchers studying the influence of sex steroids on the physiology and pathophysiology of the cardiovascular-renal system to present and discuss their work. The second goal is to stimulate, educate and encourage young investigators who are still in training to enter this field of investigation and to provide a forum for them to interact with more established investigators. The conference program is designed to maximize the opportunity for junior investigators to present their work during the free communications oral and poster sessions and many travel awards will be made available for these junior investigators to attend this conference. The specific aims of this proposal include: 1) To convene an internationally recognized, interdisciplinary group of investigators currently focusing on the study of the effects of sex steroids in the physiology and pathophysiology of the cardiovascular-renal system. The aim of the meeting is to both discuss the ongoing research and issues related to the topic as well as outline the direction that future work. 2) To promote the wide-spread participation of young scientists in this Conference, with an emphasis on women and underrepresented minorities, through the establishment of a travel award program. 3) To interest new investigators and students in pursuing research opportunities in the study of the role sex steroids play in controlling renal and cardiovascular function by presenting the latest state-of-the-art advances with the overall objective of relating how these new data may prove useful in our understanding of the cardiovascular-renal system from genomics and physiology to disease.

描述（申请人提供）：本申请的目的是寻求对APS会议的支持，该会议定于2009年7月15日至19日在丹佛举行，主题为"肾血管生理学和病理生理学中的性类固醇和性别"，本次会议的第一个目标是汇集临床和基础研究科学家谁研究性类固醇在心血管和肾脏疾病的作用，并提供一个讨论该领域正在进行和未来研究的论坛。该计划旨在让研究性类固醇对心血管-肾系统生理学和病理生理学影响的杰出和初级研究人员介绍和讨论他们的工作。第二个目标是激励、教育和鼓励仍在接受培训的年轻调查员进入这一调查领域，并为他们提供一个论坛，与更有经验的调查员进行互动。会议计划旨在最大限度地提高初级研究人员在免费交流口头和海报会议期间展示工作的机会，并为这些初级研究人员参加本次会议提供许多旅行奖励。该提案的具体目标包括：1）召集一个国际公认的跨学科研究人员小组，目前专注于研究性类固醇在心血管-肾系统的生理学和病理生理学中的作用。会议的目的是讨论正在进行的研究和与该主题相关的问题，并概述未来工作的方向。2)通过设立旅行奖励计划，促进青年科学家广泛参加这次会议，重点是妇女和代表人数不足的少数群体。3)感兴趣的新的研究人员和学生在追求研究机会的作用，性类固醇在控制肾和心血管功能的研究中发挥的作用，通过介绍最新的国家的最先进的进展与相关的总体目标如何这些新的数据可能证明有用的心血管肾系统从基因组学和生理学疾病的理解。
