Gordon-Kenan Graduate Research Seminar on Catecholamines, Oxford, England, August 3-5, 2007

戈登-凯南儿茶酚胺研究生研究研讨会(GRS-CA)为初级研究人员提供了一个独特的机会，让他们可以教育同事了解他们的工作，了解其他人的工作，并建立跨国家和学科的专业关系。在过去的35年里，儿茶酚胺受体和神经信号系统的分子生物学的基本发现在许多层面上推动了我们对中枢和外周神经系统功能的理解。成功的儿茶酚胺研究需要学生了解大脑行为问题，包括神经生物学、神经解剖学、神经学、药理学、分子生物学、遗传学和行为神经科学。戈登儿茶酚胺研究会议(GRC-CA)传统上欢迎年轻科学家。为了进一步加强研究生和博士后的GRC-CA体验，为期两天的GRS-CA将从周五晚上(2007年8月3日)开始，一直持续到周日。研究生和博士后学者将发表所有的科学报告，教师导师将出席，以促进研究讨论，并强调现代儿茶酚胺研究的重要问题(方法、主题等)。GRS-CA规划委员会致力于性别、研究水平(博士前/博士后)、种族、地理和研究学科的多样性。不同的与会者群体进一步拓宽了GRS演讲者和听众的教育范围和视角。总体而言，GRS-CA是将下一代科学家纳入儿茶酚胺研究基础设施的机会

The Gordon-Kenan Graduate Research Seminar on Catecholamines (GRS-CA) is a unique opportunity for junior researchers to educate colleagues about their work, to learn about others'' work, and to forge professional relationships across countries and disciplines. In the last three and ½ decades, basic discoveries in the molecular biology of catecholamine receptors and neural signaling systems have been the driving force in our understanding of central and peripheral nervous system function at many levels. Successful catecholamine research requires students to understand brain-behavior issues encompassing neurobiology, neurotanatomy, neurology, pharmacology, molecular biology, genetics, and behavioral neuroscience. The Gordon Research Conference on Catecholamines (GRC-CA) has traditionally embraced young scientists. In an attempt to further enhance the GRC-CA experience for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, a two-day GRS-CA will commence on Friday evening (August 3, 2007) and continue through Sunday. Graduate students and Post-Doctoral scholars will make all of the scientific presentations, faculty mentors will be present to facilitate research discussions, and also to highlight the important issues (methodology, topics, etc) of modern catecholamine research. The GRS-CA planning committee is committed to diversity in gender, research level (pre/post-doctoral), ethnicity, geography, and research discipline. A diverse pool of attendees further broadens the range of education and perspective for GRS speakers and audience members. Overall, the GRS-CA is an opportunity to incorporate the next generation of scientists into the infrastructure of catecholamine research
