DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall objective of this 2-day conference is to explore and advance the frontiers of research in microcirculation. This will be accomplished through identifying and integrating fundamental regulatory processes that underlie microvascular function with the purpose of advancing clinical practice and patient care. There are four general themes to the conference with an entire morning or afternoon dedicated to each theme. Day 1 will encompass Plasticity (a.m.) and Inflammation (p.m.). Day 2 will encompass Cell Signaling (a.m.) and Intercellular Communication (p.m.). A 2-hour symposium and 1.5-hour poster session are dedicated to each theme, with additional free time for continuing poster discussions as well as individual and small group meetings. Symposia and poster sessions are scheduled in series so that all participants can attend each session. Each symposium has 2 invited keynote speakers and 4 oral presentations selected from complementary submitted abstracts. Underlying each theme is the aim to explore how regulatory processes in the microcirculation contribute to and/or are altered during such pathophysiological states as cancer, inflammation and ischemia. Specific objectives of the conference include: 1) Invigorate research in microcirculation through promoting interactions among scientists and physicians whose work has direct relevance to microcirculation; 2) Stimulate interest in studying the microcirculation in early career scientists by highlighting the contributions of young scientists - particularly women - who have been invited as keynote speakers and by giving special attention to selecting abstracts for oral presentation by trainees; 3) Create a meeting environment that fosters interpersonal interactions by limiting its size and providing a venue with numerous opportunities for informal discussions between speakers, attendees and trainees - especially women and minorities; 4) Highlight disease processes where disruption of the microcirculation is particularly evident in order to promote interest in areas of research most relevant to clinical practice. In this era of translational research, it is essential that such new insight be integrated into the understanding, treatment and prevention of disease. In a reciprocal manner, it is critical that researchers who study all aspects of the microcirculation be made aware of the information most needed by physicians to most effectively improve patient care. This meeting is the first to be planned specifically for building bridges between basic research in microcirculation and the application of this knowledge in clinical settings. (End of Abstract)

描述（由申请人提供）： 为期两天的会议的总体目标是探索和推进微循环研究的前沿。这将通过识别和整合微血管功能基础的基本调节过程来实现，目的是推进临床实践和患者护理。会议有四个主题，每个主题都有一个上午或下午的时间。第1天将包括可塑性（上午）和炎症（下午）。第2天将包括细胞信号传导（上午）和细胞间通讯（下午）。每个主题都有一个2小时的研讨会和1.5小时的海报会议，还有额外的自由时间进行海报讨论以及个人和小组会议。专题讨论会和海报会议是按系列安排的，以便所有与会者都能参加每一次会议。每个专题讨论会有2名特邀主旨发言人和4名从补充提交的摘要中选出的口头报告。每个主题的目的是探索微循环中的调节过程如何在癌症，炎症和局部缺血等病理生理状态中做出贡献和/或改变。会议的具体目标包括：（1）通过促进与微循环直接相关的科学家和医生之间的互动，振兴微循环研究; 2）通过强调青年科学家-特别是妇女-的贡献，激发早期职业科学家研究微循环的兴趣;并特别注意挑选摘要供学员口头介绍; 3）创造一个会议环境，通过限制其规模和提供一个场所，为发言者之间的非正式讨论提供大量机会，促进人际互动，与会者和受训者-特别是妇女和少数民族; 4）突出微循环中断特别明显的疾病过程，以提高对与临床实践最相关的研究领域的兴趣。在这个转化研究的时代，将这种新的见解融入到对疾病的理解、治疗和预防中至关重要。在一个相互的方式，这是至关重要的研究人员谁研究的微循环的各个方面都意识到医生最需要的信息，以最有效地改善病人的护理。这次会议是第一次专门为建立微循环基础研究和临床应用之间的桥梁而计划的会议。 (End摘要）
