Conference: 20012 FASEB Yeast Chromosome Structure, Replication, and Segregation Conference to be held July 15-20, 2012 in Steamboat Springs, CO

2012年FASEB关于酵母染色体结构、复制和分离的会议将于2012年7月15日至20日在科罗拉多州蒸汽船泉的蒸汽船大度假村举行。这次会议的独特之处在于，它将科学家聚集在一起，对两种酵母模型——酿酒酵母和pombe裂糖酵母进行染色体行为的基础研究。会议涵盖了广泛的主题，包括：DNA复制，染色体结构和进化，染色质结构和基因表达，端粒和沉默，重组和染色体重排，有丝分裂和减数分裂，细胞周期调节，激酶，纺锤体和细胞质分裂。更广泛的影响已经注意到招募不同群体的演讲者，包括高级和早期职业调查员。根据需要向学生和博士后提供奖学金；奖学金将限制在每个研究实验室一个，以确保资金的广泛使用。将优先考虑代表性不足的少数民族。

Intellectual Merit The 2012 FASEB meeting on Yeast Chromosome Structure, Replication and Segregation will be held July 15-20, 2012 in at the Steamboat Grand Resort in Steamboat Springs, CO. The meeting is unique in that it brings together scientists doing basic research involving chromosome behavior in two yeast models, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe. The meeting covers a wide range of topics, including: DNA replication, chromosome structure and evolution, chromatin structure and gene expression, telomeres and silencing, recombination and chromosome rearrangements, mitosis and meiosis, cell cycle regulation, kintechores, spindles and cytokinesis.Broader Impacts Attention has been paid to recruiting a diverse group of speakers, including both senior and early-career investigators. Support will be provided as scholarships to students and postdoctoral fellows chosen based on need; scholarships will be limited to one per research lab, to ensure broad use of the funds. Priority will be given to underrepresented minorities.
