DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Project Summary: The Barrier Function of Mammalian Skin Gordon Research Conference is a biennial event, scheduled for its twelfth meeting from August 7-12, 2011. This conference is the primary international research forum on the mammalian barrier. It is a uniquely interdisciplinary conference that attracts dermatology, molecular biology, bioengineering and pharmaceutical scientists to present and discuss the latest research on all aspects of the epidermal permeability barrier. Originally thought of only as a passive barrier to water movement, epidermal barrier function now is known to encompass a variety of barriers, regulating passage of water, toxins, drugs, microbes, and ultraviolet radiation. As our understanding of the variety of epidermal barriers has expanded, and the number of skin diseases impacted by epidermal barrier abnormalities has increased, each conference has highlighted new aspects of the barrier. Broad, Long-term Objectives: 1) To advance scientific knowledge in the field of skin barrier research. 2) To foster interdisciplinary approaches to understand and treat barrier-related skin disease. 3) To nurture young scientists working in barrier-related scientific fields. Specific Aims: 1) To disseminate the most recent scientific and clinical advances in barrier research. 2) To identify, define and analyze the most important and unresolved issues in this field. 3) To identify and pursue interdisciplinary research opportunities. 4) To encourage discussion and forge collaboration among participants. 5) To include a broad diversity of participants, including representation of academia, industry and government, as well as foreign, female, disabled and underrepresented minorities. Heath Relatedness of the Project: Each planned session will address epidermal barrier function in health and in specific diseases. Thus, this meeting will advance our understanding of the epidermal barrier's roles in regulating human skin biology and disease, specifically those that involve one of the epidermal barriers (for example, atopic dermatitis, ichthyosis, contact dermatitis, skin sun damage and skin infections). NIH funding may allow us to invite prominent investigators to present their research or chair sessions. This funding may also assist us in our aim to support junior investigators who may be working on the most innovative projects in the field. Finally, NIH funding allows complementary fundraising from other non-federal sources.

描述（由申请人提供）：项目摘要：哺乳动物皮肤戈登研究会议的屏障功能是一项两年一次的活动，计划于2011年8月7日至12日举行第十二次会议。该会议是哺乳动物障碍的主要国际研究论坛。这是一次独特的跨学科会议，吸引了皮肤病学，分子生物学，生物工程和制药科学家，可以介绍和讨论有关表皮渗透性障碍的各个方面的最新研究。现在，众所周知，表皮屏障功能最初仅被视为水流动的被动障碍，该功能包括各种障碍，调节水，毒素，药物，微生物和紫外线辐射的传递。随着我们对表皮屏障的种类的理解，受表皮屏障异常影响的皮肤疾病的数量增加了，每次会议都强调了障碍的新方面。广泛的长期目标：1）在皮肤屏障研究领域提高科学知识。 2）培养跨学科的方法来理解和治疗与屏障相关的皮肤病。 3）培育在与障碍有关的科学领域工作的年轻科学家。具体目的：1）传播屏障研究的最新科学和临床进步。 2）识别，定义和分析该领域最重要，最尚未解决的问题。 3）识别和寻求跨学科研究机会。 4）鼓励参与者之间的讨论和锻造。 5）包括各种各样的参与者，包括学术界，工业和政府的代表以及外国，女性，残疾和代表性不足的少数民族。项目的荒地相关性：每个计划的会议都将解决健康和特定疾病中的表皮屏障功能。因此，这次会议将提高我们对表皮屏障在调节人皮肤生物学和疾病中的作用的理解，特别是那些涉及表皮屏障之一的人（例如，特应性皮炎，鱼皮病，接触性皮炎，皮肤太阳损伤和皮肤感染）。 NIH资金可能使我们能够邀请著名的调查人员介绍他们的研究或主席会议。这笔资金也可能有助于我们为可能正在研究该领域最具创新性项目的初级调查人员提供帮助。最后，NIH资金允许其他非联邦来源的补充筹款。
