DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application seeks support for Toll2011, the fourth in a series of meetings focused on research advances in innate immunity. The meeting is planned for May 4-7, 2011 in Riva del Garda, Italy and follows meetings in Taormina, Italy (2004), Salvador, Brazil (2006) and Cascais/Lisbon, Portugal (2008). The meeting in 2008 had over 500 participants, and the maximum amount of participants in 2011 will be close to 600. The meetings initially had a strong emphasis on recognition of microbial components (from viruses, bacteria, parasites, fungi) and signaling via Toll-like receptors, but in later years the themes have expanded to reflect a number of new signaling pathways (such as inflammasome activation) in host sensing of pathogens. Results are presented on diverse topics such as the interface between innate and adaptive immunity, model systems, evolution of innate immunity and clinical studies. Many speakers are from academic institutions in Europe, Asia, USA and other countries in the Americas, including speakers presenting on development of therapeutics related to innate immunity. The meeting intends to present cutting-edge science on many aspects related to innate immunity. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The study of innate immunity has been rapidly evolving and new challenges and discoveries are constantly being identified. The Toll2011 Meeting E Decoding innate immunity will bring clinicians and scientists together to exchange, discuss, and evaluate recent discoveries in the field of innate immunity and related topics. The conference will entail the following: lectures from distinguished scholars in several research aspects of innate immunity, poster sessions for young investigators to communicate their findings, and workshops where experts will debate the important topics of the day with audience participation. The goal of this meeting is to enhance understanding and disseminate available information on new developments towards understanding the underlying causes of innate immunity. The conference will also define the significant remaining scientific questions that need to be answered in order to advance future treatments for viral diseases.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请为Toll2011寻求支持，Toll2011是专注于先天免疫研究进展的系列会议中的第四次会议。会议计划于2011年5月4日至7日在意大利加尔达河畔举行，随后分别在意大利陶尔米纳（2004年）、巴西萨尔瓦多（2006年）和葡萄牙卡斯凯伊斯/里斯本（2008年）举行。2008年的会议参会人数超过500人，2011年的会议参会人数最多将接近600人。会议最初强调微生物成分（来自病毒、细菌、寄生虫、真菌）的识别和通过toll样受体的信号传导，但在后来的几年里，主题已经扩展到反映宿主感知病原体的一些新的信号传导途径（如炎性体激活）。结果提出了不同的主题，如先天免疫和适应性免疫之间的接口，模型系统，先天免疫的进化和临床研究。许多发言者来自欧洲、亚洲、美国和美洲其他国家的学术机构，包括介绍与先天免疫有关的治疗方法发展的发言者。会议旨在介绍与先天免疫有关的许多方面的前沿科学。
