Project Summary This proposal requests partial support for the Eleventh Gordon Research Conference (GRC) and the first Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on “Salivary Glands and Exocrine Biology” entitled “Understanding development, function and regeneration of secretory tissues: novel signaling pathways and approaches to treat exocrine disorders” to be held from February 18-24, 2017 at the Hotel Galvez in Galveston, Texas. The GRC will include plenary sessions on exocrine gland development, regenerative approaches, functional relevance of salivary proteins, membrane functions in exocrine glands, understanding the etiology of autoimmune disease, targeting inflammation to retard disease pathogenesis and current topics in cell biology of exocrine glands. Invited speakers for the GRC will include eminent scientists from academia, industry and government and talks will include both senior and junior scientists from diverse fields who will present current unpublished research findings on subjects identified by previous meeting organizers and attendees as of greatest interest to the field. Several keynote speakers will be invited to deliver seminars on stem cell therapeutics, clinical genomics and clinical trials for Sjögren’s syndrome, a common autoimmune disease that affects exocrine glands and negatively impacts the quality of life of patients for whom no suitable and effective therapies are available. An innovation at this GRC will be inclusion for the first time of a GRS to be held just prior to the GRC that will invite only speakers who are graduate students and postdoctoral associates in a wide variety of laboratories worldwide. These junior scientists at the GRS will also attend the GRC where many of them will be chosen to give seminars that will be included in the plenary sessions. In addition, poster sessions will be held daily at the GRC to enable all attendees to present and discuss their data in an open forum. The overall goal of the GRC and GRS will be to foster scientific exchanges and engender research collaborations in disciplines that are viewed as having a major impact on the development of novel strategies to improve human health. Specific Aims in line with the NIDCR mission include: 1) to present a program of topical interest to scientists in academia, industry and government and to assemble junior and senior investigators in a pleasant setting where they will have opportunities to present unpublished findings before a knowledgeable audience and engage in a wide range of critical research discussions; 2) to offer for the first time, a GRS to be attended by graduate students and postdoctoral associates who will present their novel research findings before an audience of their peers and; 3) to emphasize presentations on state-of- the-art methodologies of interest to the exocrine biology field towards the goal of developing innovative approaches to the improvement of human health by preventing disorders of secretory organs.

项目摘要 该提案要求部分支持第十一届戈登研究会议(GRC)和第一届 戈登研究研讨会(GRS)题为《理解》的《唾液腺和外分泌生物学》 分泌组织的发育、功能和再生：新的信号通路和途径 治疗外分泌紊乱“将于2017年2月18日至24日在德克萨斯州加尔维斯顿的Galvez酒店举行。 GRC将包括关于外分泌腺发育、再生方法、 唾液蛋白的功能相关性，外分泌腺的膜功能，理解 自身免疫性疾病的病因学，以炎症为靶点延缓疾病的发病机制和当前的研究课题 在外分泌腺的细胞生物学中。GRC的特邀演讲者将包括来自 学术界、工业界和政府将包括来自不同领域的资深和初级科学家 将介绍上一次会议确定的主题的当前未发表研究成果的领域 组织者和与会者是该领域最感兴趣的。几位主旨演讲者将被邀请参加 举办干细胞疗法、临床基因组学和干燥综合征临床试验研讨会 一种常见的自身免疫性疾病，影响外分泌腺并对患者的生活质量产生负面影响 没有合适和有效的治疗方法的患者。本次GRC的一项创新将是 首次在GRC之前举行GRS，仅邀请以下演讲者 世界各地不同实验室的研究生和博士后助理。这些低年级学生 GRS的科学家也将参加GRC，他们中的许多人将被选为研讨会， 将包括在全体会议上。此外，GRC每天都会举行海报宣传活动，以 使所有与会者都可以在开放论坛中展示和讨论他们的数据。全球资源中心的总体目标是 GRS将促进科学交流，并在下列学科产生研究合作 被认为对制定改善人类健康的新战略具有重大影响。 与NIDCR使命一致的具体目标包括：1)提出一个具有专题兴趣的节目，以 学术界、工业界和政府的科学家，并将初级和高级调查人员聚集在一个 令人愉快的环境，他们将有机会在 知识渊博的受众并参与广泛的批判性研究讨论；2)为 第一次，研究生和博士后助理将参加GRS，他们将介绍他们的 在同龄人面前发表新的研究成果；3)强调关于 外分泌生物学领域感兴趣的-ART方法学朝着发展创新的目标迈进 通过预防分泌器官紊乱来改善人类健康的途径。
