Young Investigator programs at the 40th Annual Scientific Meeting of the ISEH - S

描述（由申请人提供）：ISEH第40届年度科学会议将于8月25日至28日在加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华的威斯汀温哥华举行。 科学计划包括总统研讨会和全体讲座，其中包括国际领先的研究人员，以及同时进行的口头和海报讨论会，介绍从提交的摘要中选出的突破性研究。 科学委员会感到非常自豪的是，集合了继续保持ISEH科学卓越传统的教师和内容。今年的科学计划包括以下方面的会议： 1重编程和表观遗传学 2 HSC生物学 3祖细胞生物学 4微环境 5信号传导 6转录调控 7老化 8移植/基因治疗/再生医学 9白血病（临床） 10例淋巴瘤 11发育生物学 12组织炎症 13基因组学会议通过提供青年研究人员奖和旅费赠款，以及与国际领先研究人员会面和建立联系的机会，积极促进青年研究人员和该领域新兴领导人的参与。 青年调查员是2010年会议的重要焦点，特别设计了一个项目和会议组织，为开创性的青年调查员提供一个展示研究成果的场所，并促进与经验丰富的同行进行多种互动。这次会议的规模很小，保证了年轻的研究人员一个突出的地方，并使这个事件更有价值的他们和整个科学界，相比，在美国或世界其他地区的大型活动。年轻的研究人员被选中进行抽象演讲的机会也要高得多，因为他们占与会者的很大比例。 2010年的墨尔本会议有138名年轻的研究人员参加（占总出席人数的40%）。ISEH科学会议的这一至关重要的特点在这一科学领域的其他会议上并不典型。会议的小型性质促进了年轻研究人员和经验丰富的知名研究人员之间的良好互动，因此鼓励了这一快速发展领域的科学话语。这次会议上提出的科学内容和摘要在该领域的重要性是无与伦比的，是年轻研究人员参加会议的基础。 公共卫生相关性：血液学和干细胞学会（ISEH）年度科学会议是血液学和干细胞生物学领域交流和讨论原创，未发表和重大研究进展的年度论坛。 这是一个独特而重要的全球性聚会，来自美国和其他国家的有前途的年轻调查人员有机会与来自世界各地的该领域的领先，备受尊敬的研究人员会面，学习并展示他们的发现。 通过这笔赠款，ISEH打算使来自美国的大量具有代表性的年轻研究人员和演讲者能够参加2011年8月25日至28日在加利福尼亚州温哥华举行的ISEH第40届年度科学会议，为这些美国研究人员提供旅行补助金和住宿和膳食。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The ISEH 40th Annual Scientific Meeting will be held from August 25-28 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada at the Westin Vancouver. The scientific program comprises presidential symposia and plenary lectures featuring leading international researchers, as well as concurrent oral and poster discussion sessions presenting ground-breaking research selected from submitted abstracts. The Scientific Committee takes great pride in assembling both faculty and content that continue in the ISEH tradition of scientific excellence. This year's scientific program features sessions on: 1 Re-programming and Epigenetics 2 HSC Biology 3 Progenitor Cell Biology 4 Microenvironment 5 Signaling 6 Transcriptional control 7 Aging 8 Transplantation/Gene Therapy/Regenerative Medicine 9 Leukemia (clinical) 10 Lymphoma 11 Developmental Biology 12 Tissue Inflammation 13 Genomics The meeting proactively fosters the participation of young investigators and emerging leaders in the field by providing young investigator awards and travel grants, and opportunities for meeting and networking with leading international researchers. Young Investigators are the important focus of the 2010 meeting, with a program and session organization especially designed to provide a venue for the presentation of research from ground-breaking Young Investigators and to foster multiple interactions with their more experienced peers. The small size of this meeting assures Young Investigators a prominent place, and makes this event more valuable to them and to the scientific community as whole, as compared to the larger events in the USA or other parts of the world. Young Investigators also have a considerably higher chance of being selected for an abstract presentation, because they represent a significant percentage of attendees. The 2010 Melbourne meeting hosted 138 young investigator attendees (40 percent of total attendance). This critically important feature of the ISEH scientific meeting is not typical at other meetings in this scientific space. The smaller nature of the meeting fosters excellent interaction between young investigators and experienced, well-known investigators, therefore encouraging scientific discourse in this fast-advancing field. The scientific content and abstracts presented at this meeting are unrivaled in importance in the field and are the basis for attendance by young investigators. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The Society for Hematology and Stem Cells (ISEH) Annual Scientific Meeting is the yearly forum for the exchange and discussion of original, unpublished and significant research advances in the area of hematology and stem cell biology. It is a unique and essential worldwide gathering where promising Young Investigators from the US and other countries have the opportunity to meet with, learn from and present their findings to leading, highly-regarded researchers in the field from around the world. Though this grant, ISEH intends to make it possible for a large and representative number of Young Investigators and speakers from the USA to attend the August 25-28, 2011 ISEH 40th Annual Scientific Meeting in Vancouver, CA by offering those US researchers travel grants and contributions for lodging and meals.
