2015 AAOS/ORS Biologic Treatments of Orthopaedic Injuries Research Symposium

 描述(由申请者提供)：2015年AAOS矫形外科损伤生物治疗(BTOI)研究研讨会将为基础科学家、临床医生、年轻研究人员和注册者组成的多学科小组提供一个讨论和合作的论坛，以达成共识并确定改进翻译途径策略的方法，通过有针对性的分组讨论，将当前尖端生物学研究与肌肉骨骼损伤生物治疗的临床应用联系起来，计划参与者和年轻研究人员将交流信息，以激发新的研究机会，并突出改善患者护理的特定需求领域。具体地说，BTOI研讨会将审查当前的标准，并确定在使用自体血液产品(如富血小板血浆(PRP))、使用最低限度操纵的成体祖细胞以及使用基于支架的修复、重建和/或再生肌腱、韧带、肌肉和关节软骨组织的策略方面的知识差距。研讨会的会议记录将在相关的整形外科杂志上发表和广泛传播。重点将放在为[最多15名]年轻研究人员(学术矫形外科临床医生和基础科学家)以小型会议的形式[(年轻研究人员将约占会议与会者总数的20%)]提供指导和建立研究合作和资助机会，包括全面的旅行支持，期望年轻研究人员向该领域的领导者展示他们的研究，以及网络讨论[使年轻研究人员接触其领域的领导者]。

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 2015 AAOS Biologic Treatments for Orthopaedic Injuries (BTOI) research symposium will provide a forum for discussion and collaboration among a multidisciplinary group of basic scientists, clinicians, young investigators, [and registrants] t develop a consensus and identify ways to improve strategies for translational pathways to link current cutting edge biological research to the clinical application of biologic treatments for musculoskeletal injuries Through targeted breakout discussions, program participants and young investigators will exchange information to stimulate new research opportunities and highlight areas of specific needs for improving patient care. Specifically, the BTOI symposium will examine current standards and identify knowledge gaps for the use of autologous blood products such as platelet rich plasma (PRP), the use of minimally manipulated adult progenitor cells, as well as the use of scaffold-based strategies of the repair, reconstruction, and/or regeneration of tendon, ligament, muscle, and articular cartilage tissues. The symposium proceedings will be published and widely disseminated in a relevant orthopaedic journal. An emphasis will placed on mentorship and the establishment of research collaborations and funding opportunities for [up to 15] young investigators (academic orthopaedic clinicians and basic scientists) in a small meeting format [(young investigators will be approximately 20% of total meeting attendees)], including full travel support, with the expectation that the young investigators will present their research to leaders in the field, and networking discussions [to expose the young investigators to leaders in their field].
