2004 Marine Microbes: Gordon Research Conference; June 2004; Roscoff, France

讲习班将于2004年6月在法国罗斯科夫举行。该系列的第一次会议将题为“浮游藻类：从生态学到基因组学”。该奖项将为受邀演讲者、讨论领袖和年轻调查人员的参与提供部分支持。本次会议的目的是探讨微型浮游植物研究的原始概念，以期统一过去二十年来不同学科的成果。这是第一次，来自微型浮游植物研究的所有主要领域的主要研究人员将聚集在一个GRC，这为公开讨论提供了一个独特的论坛。这次为期5天的会议计划探讨的主题领域包括分类多样性，分子方法，生理学，生态学和基因组学。会议的目标是促进学习和参与者的多样性，与会者将向来自学术界、政府和工业界的科学家、技术人员和教育工作者开放。因此，为支持和鼓励青年科学家建立初步的科学和个人联系提供了一个论坛。由于参加者人数众多，因此可以从代表性不足的群体和广泛的地域基础中挑选登记者。该会议还提供了一个加强研究和教育基础设施的机会，并将为美国学术机构、工业界和政府提供一个与国际合作伙伴建立联系的场所。

The workshop will be held in June 2004 in Roscoff, France. The first meeting in this series will be entitled "Picophytoplankton: from ecology to genomics". This award will provide partial support for the participation of invited speakers, discussion leaders and young investigators. The objective of this conference is to explore original concepts in pico-phytoplankton research with a view to unifying the outcomes that have emerged from separate disciplines in the past two decades. For the first time, leading researchers from all major areas of picophytoplankton study will be gathered together at a GRC, which offers a unique forum for open discussion. The plan of this 5-day conference is to explore topic areas tat include taxonomic diversity, molecular approaches, physiology, ecology, and genomics. The goals of the conference are to promote learning and participant diversity, and attendance will be open to scientists, technologists and educators from academia, government and industry. A forum is thus provided for support and encouragement of young scientists as they establish initial scientific and personal contacts. The large number of participants will allow registrants to be drawn from underrepresented groups and from a wide geographic base. The conference also provides an opportunity to enhance infrastructure for research and education, and will provide a venue where US academic institutions, industry and government are able to network with international partners.
