Wind River Conference on Procaryotic Biology, 51st-53rd annual meeting at Aspen Lodge in Estes Park, CO on June 6 - 10, 2007.

该项目为研究生、博士后研究员和本科生积极参加原生生物风河大会提供旅费。该会议每年举行一次，由在各自的原核生物微生物生物学领域处于领先地位的杰出科学家作四次主旨或主题演讲。会议上剩下的大部分口头研究报告都是由学生和研究员做的。这次会议为这些年轻科学家提供了一个理想的机会，让他们有机会以清晰、简洁和翔实的方式介绍他们的数据，并回答他们的同行以及参加这次国际会议的资深科学家提出的问题。每年的会议议程都是为了解决原核生物生物学中最重要的新问题。此外，会议为青年与会者提供了一个独特和有利的氛围，让他们以非正式的方式与资深科学家、教授和研究人员互动，讨论研究，并安排正式和非正式的合作、学生或博士后约会。

This project provides travel funds for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and undergraduate researchers to actively participate in the Wind River Conference on Procaryotic Biology. This conference is held annually and features four keynote or thematic lectures given by distinguished scientists who are leaders in their respective fields of prokaryotic microbial biology. The majority of the remaining oral research presentations at the meeting are made by students and fellows. The conference provides an ideal opportunity for these young scientists to have the experience of presenting their data in a clear, concise and informative manner, and to field and respond to questions from their peers as well as the senior scientists who attend this international meeting. The meeting agenda is set each year to address the most important emerging issues in prokaryotic biology. Moreover the meeting provides a unique and conducive atmosphere for young participants to interact with senior scientists, professors and researchers in an informal manner, to discuss research, and to arrange formal and informal collaborations, studentships or post doctorial appointments.
