DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is an application for an R13 Conference grant to support a 21/2 day-meeting entitled the Congress on Steroid Research (CSR) (http://www.steroidresearchcongress.com) to be held March 27-29th, 2011 in Chicago. The Congress is being sponsored in part by the Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (JSBMB) and by Elsevier Press. The meeting has over 30 invited speakers of international reputation and come from the US and the rest of the world. Steroid hormones are implicated in homeostasis and play pivotal roles in human physiology, pathology and disease. Areas covered by the Congress include: nuclear receptors; mechanisms of signal transduction; steroidogenesis; chemistry of synthesis; environmental challenges; cancer; and diabetes and obesity. The goals of the Congress are to: (a) provide a dedicated meeting on steroids that brings together steroid researchers from multiple subspecialties and disciplines; (b) communicate comprehensive reviews of hot-topics; (c) provide a platform to exchange knowledge between basic and clinical researchers; (d) to enhance translational research; (e) provide a forum for young investigators to present their research; and (f) attract both academic and industry based participants. While the existing sponsors will make every effort to support speaker costs, young investigators (pre- and post-doctoral fellows) will only have the opportunity to attend based on the funding climate of their respective research laboratories. We believe that the Congress and speaker line-up will be attractive to this young audience. We anticipate between 250-300 registrants for the meeting and that at least one-half will be pre- and post-doctoral fellows who will have the option to submit abstracts and present posters. We are requesting funds solely to support the registration, travel and hotel accommodation of pre- and post-doctoral fellows to attend the Congress.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是一份R13会议资助申请，用于支持将于2011年3月27日至29日在芝加哥举行的为期21/2天的会议，题为类固醇研究大会（CSR）（http：www.steroidresearchcongress.com）。这次大会由类固醇生物化学和分子生物学杂志（JSBMB）和爱思唯尔出版社赞助。会议邀请了来自美国和世界其他地区的30多位国际知名人士发言。类固醇激素与体内平衡有关，在人体生理学、病理学和疾病中起着关键作用。大会涉及的领域包括：核受体;信号转导机制;类固醇生成;合成化学;环境挑战;癌症;糖尿病和肥胖症。大会的目标是：（a）提供一次关于类固醇的专门会议，使来自多个亚专业和学科的类固醇研究人员聚集一堂;（B）交流对热点问题的全面评论;（c）提供一个基础和临床研究人员交流知识的平台;（d）加强转化研究;（e）为年轻研究人员提供一个介绍其研究的论坛;及（f）吸引学术界及业界人士参与。虽然现有的赞助商将尽一切努力支持演讲者的费用，但年轻的研究人员（博士前和博士后研究员）只有根据各自研究实验室的资金环境才有机会参加。我们相信，大会和演讲者阵容将对这批年轻观众具有吸引力。我们预计会议将有250-300名注册者，其中至少一半将是博士前和博士后研究员，他们可以选择提交摘要和展示海报。我们申请的资金仅用于支持博士前和博士后研究员参加大会的注册、旅行和旅馆住宿。
