DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Signal Transduction By Engineered Extracellular Matrices was established in 2000 and has become the premier meeting at the intersection of engineered materials, cellular adhesion and signaling, tissue engineering, and stem cell biology. The 2010 meeting, to be held June 27 to July 2, 2010, at the University of New England in Biddeford, ME, adds another important dimension - linking stem cell/engineered matrix constructs to developmental models and human clinical therapy. The meeting Chair will be Dr. Chris Chen and the Vice-Chair will be Dr. Karen Hirschi. These investigators provide complimentary expertise in these emerging fields. The main objective of the conference will be to share the newest knowledge from research on: the establishment and regulation of the cellular microenvironment during development and in postnatal tissues; how the cellular microenvironment can be engineered to control cell function; how the fate of cells can be dynamically tracked in vivo; and how such insights can be applied to the development and optimization of human clinical therapies for tissue repair and regeneration. Thus, this meeting necessarily brings together researchers in diverse fields of biology (including stem cell and developmental biology), chemistry, bioimaging and engineering for both the understanding of cellular function and how this can be harnessed for the repair and replacement of tissues lost or damaged due to disease or injury, which serves to encourage cross-disciplinary thinking. Speakers will include well-established leaders in the field as well as young investigators of exceptional promise. In addition to the plenary talks, the meeting includes lively and highly interactive poster sessions. Importantly, 3 poster presenters will be invited to give short oral presentations in every a.m. session, for a total of 12 oral poster presenters. As an important new feature of the 2010 meeting, the main conference will be preceded by a weekend meeting planned by and for pre-doctoral and post-doctoral trainees in this growing interdisciplinary field. This pre-meeting, the Gordon- Kenan Graduate Research Seminar, will provide a forum for these future leaders in the field to present their work in talks and posters, in a collegial and interactive environment that will add outstanding value to their overall GRC experience. Overall, the meeting will provide a platform for the development of long term interdisciplinary interactions, and expose students and young professionals to the latest ideas and opportunities at the confluence of signal transduction, molecular and cellular biology, biomaterials and tissue engineering. 2 PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The Gordon Research Conference on Signal Transduction By Engineered Extracellular Matrices is a biennial meeting of the top investigators in the fields of bioengineering and stem cell biology. The 2010 meeting will be held June 27 to July 2, 2010 at the University of New England in Biddeford, Maine. Nine seminar sessions will be held in which leading researchers will present recent data on a variety of topics relevant to the field. In addition to these invited talks, poster sessions will enable attendees to share new experimental findings in a lively and interactive setting. The meeting will include ample time for informal, collegial interactions that are so essential for carrying out science. A pre-conference organized by and for pre-doctoral and post-doctoral trainees will be held preceding the main meeting. This pre-conference will provide an exceptional forum to establish peer group interaction among future leaders of the field, just prior to the main meeting.

描述（由申请人提供）：戈登研究会议（GRC）于2000年成立了工程细胞外矩阵信号转导的信号转导，并已成为工程材料交集，细胞粘附和信号传导，组织工程和干细胞生物学的交叉点。 2010年的会议将于2010年6月27日至2010年7月2日在我的新英格兰大学举行。会议主席将是Chris Chen博士，副主席将是Karen Hirschi博士。这些研究人员在这些新兴领域提供了免费的专业知识。会议的主要目的是分享有关研究的最新知识：在发育期间和产后组织中细胞微环境的建立和调节；细胞微环境如何设计以控制细胞功能；如何在体内动态跟踪细胞的命运；以及如何将这种见解应用于人类临床疗法以进行组织修复和再生的开发和优化。因此，这次会议必然将生物学领域（包括干细胞和发育生物学），化学，生物成像和工程学的研究人员汇集在一起​​，以理解细胞功能，以及如何利用这一点，以修复和替代因疾病或受伤而损失或损害的组织，从而鼓励跨学科思维。演讲者将包括该领域良好的领导人以及非凡的承诺的年轻调查员。除了全体会议外，会议还包括活泼且高度互动的海报会议。重要的是，将邀请3个海报演示者在每次上午的会议上进行简短的口头演示，共有12位口头海报演示者。作为2010年会议的重要新功能，主要会议将在这个日益增长的跨学科领域的周末会议和博士后和博士后学员计划之前。这次会议的戈登·肯纳（Gordon-Kenan）研究生研究研讨会将为该领域的这些未来领导者提供一个论坛，以在谈判和海报中，在合作和互动的环境中介绍他们的作品，这将为他们的整体GRC体验带来杰出的价​​值。总体而言，这次会议将为长期跨学科互动的发展提供一个平台，并在信号转导，分子和细胞生物学，生物材料和组织工程汇合处使学生和年轻专业人员接触最新的想法和机会。 2 公共卫生相关性：工程细胞外矩阵关于信号转导的戈登研究会议是生物工程和干细胞生物学领域的顶级研究人员的两年一次会议。 2010年会议将于2010年6月27日至7月2日在缅因州比德福德的新英格兰大学举行。将举行九次研讨会，主要研究人员将介绍有关该领域相关的各种主题的最新数据。除了这些受邀的谈判外，海报会议还将使与会者能够在活泼且互动的环境中分享新的实验发现。会议将包括充足的时间进行非正式的大学互动，这对于进行科学至关重要。在主要会议之前，将举行由博士前和博士后学员组织和博士后学员组织的会议。这次会议将提供一个杰出的论坛，以在主要会议之前，在该领域的未来领导者之间建立同伴群体的互动。
