US-Germany Workshop on Arabidopsis Functional Genomics, June 29-30, 2002, Seville Spain

该奖项支持一个国际研讨会，邀请由德国德意志研究基金会资助的拟南芥功能基因组学网络项目和由国家科学基金会资助的拟南芥2010项目的获奖者。该研讨会将于2002年6月29日至30日在西班牙塞维利亚举行的第13届国际拟南芥研究会议期间举行。该研讨会的目标是为这两组科学家提供一个面对面的论坛，并最大限度地提供协调他们的研究和在适当情况下发展研究合作的机会。这两个项目的共同目标是到2010年确定所有拟南芥基因的功能。来自其他国家类似2010年项目的代表将被邀请作为观察员，以便将国际合作扩大到德国和美国以外。预期的结果之一将是参与实验室之间增加学生和年轻科学家的交流。

This award supports an international workshop to bring awardees of the Arabidopsis Functional Genomics Networks program funded by the German Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft and of the Arabidopsis 2010 Project funded by the National Science Foundation. The workshop is to take place on June 29-30, 2002, in Seville Spain, during the XIIIth International Arabidopsis Research Conference. The goal of the workshop is to provide a forum for the two groups of scientists to meet face to face and maximize the opportunity to coordinate their research and to develop research collaboration where appropriate. The two programs share the same goal of identifying the function of all Arabidopsis genes by the year 2010. Representatives from the 2010-like programs in other countries will be invited as observers so that international collaborations could be expanded beyond Germany and the US. One of the expected outcomes would be an increased exchange of students and young scientists between participating laboratories.
