DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application seeks partial support for the bi-annual Gordon Conference (GRC) on Hemostasis and/or its preceding Gordon Research Seminar (GRS). The broad and long term goal of the conference is to increase our understanding of the fundamental mechanisms that regulate formation of a platelet-fibrin clot. The last two highly successful Hemostasis GRCs were held at Colby College, Maine in 2006 and Waterville Valley, New Hampshire in 2008. The next conference will be held on July 25th - July 30th 2010 at Waterville Valley Conference Center, Waterville Valley, New Hampshire. The 2008 found this venue to be a comfortable and inviting location. Always oversubscribed, well-attended, and highly evaluated by its participants, the GRC on Hemostasis for 2010 will be comprised of nine 3 hour sessions that will be held in the allotted morning and evening time slots. Poster presentations will be held before dinner on four of the five days. These are always very well-attended, and provide a dedicated, informal forum for interaction between junior and more senior scientists in the field. A Hot Topics Session, quickly becoming a tradition at our GRC, is planned for Wednesday night. The specific aims of this meeting will be to convene 39 Speakers and Discussion Leaders that represent critical areas of hemostasis research with a total of approx. 150 participants for a five day conference in a relatively isolated setting. The Speakers and Discussion Leaders have been carefully chosen by the Chair and Vice-Chair after extensive, careful consideration and consultation with former Chairs of the 2004, 2006, and 2008 Hemostasis GRC. Of these, we already have written acceptances from all participants. We have also made a concerted effort to achieve appropriate representation of women, racial and ethnic minorities, persons with disabilities, and other individuals from groups that have traditionally been underrepresented in science as Speakers and Discussion Leaders. Our current list of invited speakers and discussion leaders already includes 8 women, and we expect to increase the representation of women among our speakers, as well as including underrepresented minorities, in the Hot Topics session. The program is designed to provide an invigorating meeting covering a range of timely disciplines in the fields of thrombosis and hemostasis. A two day Gordon Research Seminar will precede the meeting and will allow post-docs and graduate students to interact in a more relaxed atmosphere. The significance of this application is that the Hemostasis GRC is widely considered to be the premiere small meeting on the topics of blood coagulation, platelet biology, and anticoagulant pathways, enjoying both national and international reputation. First organized by hemostasis pioneers Earl W. Davie and Oscar Ratnoff in 1973. The healthy relatedness of this application is that thrombosis is the leading cause of death in the US and there is an urgent need for improving diagnosis and treatment of this devastating disease. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Thrombosis is the leading cause of death in the US and there is an urgent need for improving diagnosis and treatment of this devastating disease. The goal of the conference is to increase our understanding of the fundamental mechanisms that regulate formation of a blood clot. The Hemostasis GRC is widely considered to be the premiere small meeting, on the topics of blood coagulation, platelet biology, and anticoagulant pathways, enjoying both national and international reputation.

描述(由申请人提供)： 本申请寻求对一年两次的戈登止血会议(GRC)和/或之前的戈登研究研讨会(GRS)的部分支持。会议的广泛和长期目标是增加我们对调节血小板-纤维蛋白凝块形成的基本机制的理解。最近两次非常成功的止血GRC分别于2006年在缅因州的科尔比学院和2008年在新罕布夏州的沃特维尔山谷举行。下一次会议将于2010年7月25日至7月30日在新罕布夏州沃特维尔山谷的沃特维尔山谷会议中心举行。2008年发现这个场地是一个舒适和吸引人的地方。GRC关于止血的2010年会议将由9个3小时的会议组成，在分配的上午和晚上的时间段举行，总是超额认购，出席人数很多，并得到参与者的高度评价。海报展示将在五天中的四天在晚餐前举行。这些会议总是有很多人参加，为该领域的初级和高级科学家之间的互动提供了一个专门的、非正式的论坛。我们的GRC计划在周三晚上举行热门话题会议，这一会议很快成为我们的传统。本次会议的具体目标是召集代表止血研究关键领域的39位演讲者和讨论领袖，会议总数约为。150人参加在相对孤立的环境中举行的为期五天的会议。主席和副主席在与2004年、2006年和2008年止血全球研究中心前主席进行了广泛、仔细的审议和协商后，精心挑选了发言者和讨论负责人。其中，我们已经收到了所有参与者的书面接受。我们还作出了协调一致的努力，使妇女、种族和族裔少数群体、残疾人以及传统上在科学界代表性不足的群体中的其他个人作为发言者和讨论领导者得到适当的代表性。我们目前的受邀发言者和讨论领导人名单中已包括8名妇女，我们希望在我们的发言者中增加妇女代表，并在热点议题会议上包括代表人数不足的少数群体。该计划旨在提供一次令人振奋的会议，涵盖血栓形成和止血领域的一系列及时学科。会议前将举行为期两天的戈登研究研讨会，让博士后和研究生在更轻松的气氛中互动。这一应用的意义在于，止血GRC被广泛认为是关于凝血、血小板生物学和抗凝途径主题的首次小型会议，享有国内和国际声誉。最早是由止血先驱Earl W.Davie和Oscar Ratnoff于1973年组织的。这一应用程序的健康相关性是，血栓形成是美国的主要死亡原因，迫切需要改进这种毁灭性疾病的诊断和治疗。公共卫生相关性：血栓形成是美国的主要死亡原因，迫切需要改善这种毁灭性疾病的诊断和治疗。会议的目标是增加我们对调节血液凝块形成的基本机制的了解。止血GRC被广泛认为是关于凝血、血小板生物学和抗凝途径的主题的首次小型会议，享有国内和国际声誉。
