19th International Vascular Biology Meeting

 描述（由申请人提供）：国际血管生物学会议（IVBM）是一项历史悠久的半年期活动，为全球社区及时交流、更新和讨论血管生物学研究提供了独特的机会。该会议始于41年前，在欧洲、澳大利亚、亚洲和北美轮流举行。上一次会议于2014年在日本京都举行。最近一次美国会议是在2010年。六年后，美国再次被指控组织IVBM。北美血管生物学组织（NAVBO）在“征集地点”之后任命了一个特别的评选委员会，该委员会根据地点的可达性、完善的基础设施和组委会的专业知识广度等综合特征选择了波士顿。会议将于10月30日至11月3日在波士顿喜来登酒店举行。该科学计划由当地组织委员会制定，并得到了65名成员组成的国际科学计划委员会的广泛投入。该计划包括39个科学会议，近80名受邀演讲者，其中包括大量女性和初级研究人员。它将涵盖广泛的血管生物学，优先考虑当代血管生物学研究的新兴领域。因此，它的目的是作为一个综合枢纽桥梁和交叉血管生物学领域的不同分支。为此，该计划将采用不同的演示形式，包括全体会议，同步会议，研讨会和海报会议。这次会议是为吸引下一代年轻的血管生物学家而量身定制的，包括从摘要和与教授会面讨论组中选出的口头报告。对年轻与会者的其他激励措施包括旅行奖励和从国内和国际机场到波士顿的廉价机票。美国国立卫生研究院的支持对于美国成功举办国际血管生物学界的首要科学会议至关重要。 叙述：国际血管生物学会议为来自世界各地的学员和主要研究人员提供了一个论坛，以交流有关血管生物学前沿研究的知识。它还为与会者提供了一个以非教学形式相互交流的机会，目的是提供/接受职业建议并促进新的合作。通过促进多层次的信息共享，会议应导致制定新的和改进的战略，用于治疗血管病变和其他血管病变。

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The International Vascular Biology Meeting (IVBM) is a time-honored biannual event that provides a unique opportunity for the exchange, update, and discussion of timely vascular biology research by the global community. The meeting, which began 41 years ago, rotates between Europe, Australia, Asia and North America. The last meeting took place in Kyoto, Japan in 2014. The most recent USA meeting was in 2010. Six years later, the USA is once again charged with organizing IVBM. Following a "call for sites", the North American Vascular Biology Organization (NAVBO) appointed a special selection committee, which chose Boston based on the combined features of accessibility of the location, well established infrastructure, and breadth of expertise of the organizing committee. The meeting will take place October 30 to November 3 at the Sheraton Boston Hotel. The scientific program was developed by a Local Organizing Committee with extensive input from a 65-member International Scientific Program Committee. The program includes 39 scientific sessions with nearly 80 invited speakers, including a significant number of women and junior investigators. It will cover a broad spectrum of vascular biology prioritizing the emerging areas of contemporary vascular biology research. As such, it aims at serving as an integrative hub bridging and cross-fertilizing the different branches of the vascular biology field. Towards this end, the program will incorporate different presentation formats including plenary sessions, simultaneous sessions, workshops, and poster sessions. The meeting has been tailored to attract the next generation of young vascular biologists by including oral presentations selected from the abstracts and Meet-the-Professor discussion groups. Additional incentives for young attendees include travel awards and the abundance of inexpensive airfares to Boston from both national and international airports. NIH support is essential for the success of this opportunity fr the USA to host the premier scientific meeting of the international vascular biology community. Narrative: The International Vascular Biology Meeting provides a forum for trainees and principle investigators from around the world to exchange knowledge about cutting edge research in vascular biology. It also provides attendees with an opportunity to interact with each other in non-didactic formats with the goal of providing/receiving career advice and fostering new collaborations. By promoting information sharing on multiple levels, the meeting should lead to the development of novel and improved strategies for treatment of vascular pathologies and other pathologies with vascular involvement in a broad context.
