 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application for funding is to support expenses for the 2016 20th Annual Woods Hole Immunoparasitology Meeting (WHIP), which brings together principal investigators, students and postdoctoral fellows from around the world who are in the field of immunoparasitology. The 2016 (20th) meeting will be held on April 18 - 21, 2016. The annual gathering of scholars in this field was established in 1997 with the intent to provide a collegial meeting place for scientists to exchange ideas in this important field. The meeting averages 125 to 150 participants every year. While there are other meetings where senior principal investigators in this field present their data, the focus of this meeting is to provide a forum where graduate students and postdoctoral fellows present their work to each other and established investigators. The meeting also aims to provide the opportunity to highlight new junior faculty in the field. The location was chosen because of the strong association of the Marine Biology Laboratory (MBL) and the field of parasitology. This relationship began more than 20 years ago with the establishment of the annual summer course, "Biology of Parasitism," and with the annual Molecular Parasitology meeting held in the fall at the MBL. It is close to laboratories on the east coast, and accessible via direct flights to Boston from around the world. Over 85% of the talks at the WHIP meeting will be given by either graduate students or post-doctoral fellows, making this a unique meeting in the field. In addition to the oral presentations, all of the students and post-doctoral fellows have the opportunity to present their work in poster sessions. Thus, both in oral talks and poster sessions students and post-doctoral fellows in the field of immunoparasitology gain valuable experience in presenting their data, as well as contacts that will be useful for advancing their science and their careers.

 描述（由申请提供）：本资金申请是为了支持2016年第20届年度伍兹洞免疫学会会议（WHIP）的费用，该会议汇集了来自世界各地的主要研究人员，学生，学生和博士后研究员。 2016年（20届）会议将于2016年4月18日至21日举行。该领域的学者年度聚会成立于1997年，目的是为科学家提供一个大学会议场所，以便科学家在这一重要领域交换思想。会议平均每年有125至150名参与者。尽管在其他会议上，该领域的高级主要调查员介绍了他们的数据，但本次会议的重点是提供一个 论坛，研究生和博士后研究员互相展示他们的工作并既定的调查员。会议还旨在提供机会突出该领域的新初级教师。选择该位置是因为海洋生物学实验室（MBL）和寄生虫学领域的密切关联。这种关系始于20多年前，当时建立了年度夏季课程“寄生虫的生物学”，并在秋季在MBL举行的年度分子寄生虫会议。它靠近东海岸的实验室，可通过从世界各地飞往波士顿的直接航班。在鞭子会议上，超过85％的会谈将由研究生或博士后研究员进行，这使该会议成为该领域的独特会议。除了口头介绍， 所有的学生和博士后研究员都有机会在海报会议上介绍他们的作品。在口头谈判和海报课程中，免疫阶层学领域的学生和博士后研究员都在介绍他们的数据方面都获得了宝贵的经验，以及与他们的科学和职业发展非常有用的联系。
