DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Our application is for partial financial support for the Gordon Research Conference on Ca2+ signaling. The conference will be held on June 21-26, 2009 at Il Ciocco Hotel (Near Lucca, Italy). This conference will be the 9th in this series of Gordon Research Conferences. The broad goal of this conference is to facilitate understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms of Ca2+ homeostasis and to elucidate physiological and pathological effects produced by this important ion-messenger. Specific objectives for this meeting are: To bring together researchers specialising in fundamental aspects of calcium signaling and scientists with interests in the role of Ca2+ in physiological processes and in important diseases e.g. cardiovascular diseases, cancer, pancreatitis, Alzheimer's disease and others. To develop a stimulating program by inviting speakers and session chairs selected from among the leaders and innovators in the Ca2+ signaling research field (35-40 scientists in total). To attract a further 115 participants with strong interests in Ca2+ signaling who will benefit from cutting-edge lectures and extensive unhampered discussions, as well as from presenting and discussing their research work at poster sessions. To achieve a balanced participation of different groups of scientists (e.g. postdoctoral scientists, young group leaders, established investigators) and to give a fair opportunity for women, under represented minorities and persons with disabilities to participate and present at this meeting. The significance of this conference is that it is an essential biannual discussion forum critical for progress in the understanding of the fundamental mechanisms of Ca2+ signaling and the downstream physiological and pathological processes controlled by this important second messenger. The health relatedness. The Program will contain a session specifically dedicated to the role of Ca2+ signaling in disease. We will discuss the role of Ca2+ signaling in cancer, cardiac hypertrophy, pancreatitis and Alzheimer's disease. We anticipate that this session will help to reveal links between specific signaling mechanisms, which will be discussed in later sessions, with implications for important diseases.

描述(由申请人提供)： 我们的申请是为戈登钙信号研究会议提供部分资金支持。会议将于2009年6月21-26日在意大利卢卡附近的Il Ciocco酒店举行。这次会议将是戈登研究会议系列中的第9次。 本次会议的主要目的是促进理解钙离子稳态的分子和细胞机制，并阐明这种重要的离子信使所产生的生理和病理效应。 本次会议的具体目标是： 汇聚专门研究钙信号基本方面的研究人员和对钙离子在生理过程和重要疾病(如心血管疾病、癌症、胰腺炎、阿尔茨海默病等)中的作用感兴趣的科学家。 通过邀请从钙离子信号研究领域的领导者和创新者(总共35-40名科学家)中挑选出来的演讲者和会议主席来制定一个刺激计划。 为了吸引另外115名对钙离子信号有浓厚兴趣的参与者，他们将受益于前沿的讲座和广泛的畅通无阻的讨论，以及在海报会议上展示和讨论他们的研究工作。 为实现不同科学家群体(例如博士后科学家、年轻群体领导人、知名研究人员)的均衡参与，并为妇女、代表不足的少数群体和残疾人提供公平的机会参加和出席本次会议。 这次会议的意义在于，它是一个基本的两年一次的讨论论坛，对于理解钙信号的基本机制以及由这个重要的第二信使控制的下游生理和病理过程至关重要。 与健康有关的问题。该计划将包含一个专门讨论钙信号在疾病中的作用的会议。我们将讨论钙信号在癌症、心脏肥大、胰腺炎和阿尔茨海默病中的作用。我们预计，本届会议将有助于揭示具体信号机制之间的联系，这些机制将在以后的会议上讨论，并对重要疾病产生影响。(摘要结束)
