International C. elegans Meetings, June 1995 and June 1997, Madison, WI

9417034 Blumenthal：这个奖项是为将于1995年6月和1997年6月在威斯康辛州麦迪逊市威斯康辛大学举行的国际线虫会议提供支持。对秀丽隐杆线虫的研究范围从整个神经系统的功能和形态的进化等全球性问题到基因结构和功能的分子基础。秀丽隐杆线虫已成为研究动物生物学许多方面，特别是发育和行为的遗传和分子基础的重要实验生物。会议的目的是加强知识、方法、突变体和克隆体的交流，这对于建立这一领域特有的兴奋感和合作感至关重要。

9417034 Blumenthal: This award is to provide support for the International C.elegans Meeting to be held at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin, June 1995 and June 1997. Research on the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans ranges from such global problems as the functioning of an entire nervous system and the evolution of form to the molecular bases of gene structure and function. C. elegans has become an important experimental organism for the study of many aspects of animal biology, particularly the genetic and molecular bases of development and behavior. The goal of the meeting is to enhance exchanges of knowledge, methods, mutants, and clones which is vital in establishing the sense of excitement and collegiality that characterizes this field.
