Group Travel Proposal: Nuclear Envelope and Golgi, Marseille 2008

该奖项将允许四名美国受邀演讲者参加2008年7月10日的实验生物学学会（SEB）卫星会议，题为核膜和高尔基细胞生物学（http://www.sebiology.org/meetings/Marseille/Golgi.html）。研讨会的目的是首次将研究植物核膜（NE）和高尔基体的研究人员聚集在一起。虽然核膜通常被认为与内质网（ER），特别是与内质网延伸的外核膜关系更密切，但新的证据表明，动物细胞中的内质网和高尔基体之间存在迄今未被认识到的联系。由于植物中NE组成和高尔基体有丝分裂生物学的差异，让一群植物生物学家了解这一概念，鼓励当前研究成果的信息交流，并开发可能的未来项目，以解决植物中这一联系，这是至关重要的。

This award will allow four US invited speakers to attend the Society of Experimental Biology (SEB) Satellite meeting entitled Nuclear Envelope and Golgi Cell Biology(http://www.sebiology.org/meetings/Marseille/Golgi.html) on 10 July 2008.The objective of the symposium is to bring together for the first time researchers investigating the nuclear envelope (NE)and the Golgi in plants. While the nuclear envelope is generally considered more related to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and especially the outer nuclear envelope membrane an extension of the ER, new lines of evidence indicate a hitherto unappreciated connection between the NE and the Golgi in animal cells.Because of the differences both in NE composition and Golgi mitotic biology in plants, it is considered crucial to expose a group of plant biologists to this concept and encourage both information exchange of current research findings and the development of possible future projects to address this connection in plants.
