PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The funds requested in this application are for partial support of the workshop “The Mouse as an Instrument for Ear Research VII”, to be held at The Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine, on September 18–23, 2016. This workshop is one of a kind and will focus on comparative, translational aspects of characterizing auditory and vestibular function in mouse models of human hereditary hearing and balance disorders. It represents an intensive training opportunity for graduate students, postdocs and investigators wishing to gain expertise in characterizing mouse auditory and vestibular function. This workshop is for a small number of participants and includes classroom lectures in the morning, followed by hands-on laboratory sessions in the afternoon. The primary aims of this workshop are to provide practical laboratory training and didactic instruction to students and to promote communication between students, postdocs and faculty in various fields of biology related to hearing and balance, with a focus on the realized and potential applications of the mouse to their field of study. Toward this end, students, postdocs and established investigators from several disciplines will have an opportunity to share new ideas, identify potential collaborations and help chart a course for their future research. Lectures will be offered in the Highseas Conference Center, and hands on sessions will be held at The Jackson Laboratory main campus in the Applied Genetics Training Laboratory. In an era of expanding mouse model resources, practical training in phenotyping and related methodologies will continue to be of enormous benefit to researchers in the field. The only current educational offerings that address auditory biology and disease are either large amorphous society meetings or limited-entry workshops that require more than a two-week time commitment.

项目概要/摘要 本申请所要求的资金用于部分支持“鼠标作为工具”研讨会 Ear Research VII”，将于 2016 年 9 月 18 日至 23 日在缅因州巴港的杰克逊实验室举行。 本次研讨会是独一无二的，将重点关注表征听觉的比较和转化方面 人类遗传性听力和平衡障碍小鼠模型中的前庭功能和前庭功能。它代表了一个 为希望获得相关专业知识的研究生、博士后和研究人员提供强化培训机会 表征小鼠听觉和前庭功能。本次研讨会只针对少数参与者 包括上午的课堂讲座，然后是下午的实验室实践课程。这 该研讨会的主要目的是为学生提供实用的实验室培训和教学指导 并促进生物学相关各个领域的学生、博士后和教师之间的交流 听力和平衡，重点关注鼠标在其研究领域的已实现和潜在应用。 为此，来自多个学科的学生、博士后和资深研究人员将有一个 分享新想法、确定潜在合作并帮助制定未来路线的机会 研究。讲座将在公海会议中心举行，实践课程将在 杰克逊实验室主校区位于应用遗传学培训实验室。在一个不断扩张的时代 小鼠模型资源、表型分析和相关方法的实践培训将继续 给该领域的研究人员带来巨大的好处。当前唯一针对听觉的教育产品 生物学和疾病要么是大型的无定形社会会议，要么是限制入场的研讨会，需要更多 而不是两周的时间承诺。
