2022 APS Intersociety Meeting - Comparative Physiology: From Organisms to Omics in an Uncertain World

该奖项资助本科生、研究生、博士后和早期职业研究者的旅费，特别是来自代表性不足群体的个人，因此他们可以展示研究成果并参加美国生理学会（APS）跨社会会议，比较生理学：从有机体到不确定世界中的组学，2022年10月28日至31日在加利福尼亚州圣地亚哥举行。会议提供了一个展示在理解生物体（包括人类和其他动物）综合生理学方面取得的重大进展的场所。这次会议是比较生理学家报告他们最新研究发现和发展合作以激发科学创新的机会。会议的更广泛影响包括：有机体生理学知识的重大进步，来自代表性不足群体的个人在比较生理学研究中的更多参与，以及全球多样化和更具协作性的研究队伍的发展。2022年APS跨社会会议，比较生理学：从有机体到不确定世界中的组学，旨在促进国际比较和进化生理学家的思想交流和未来合作的发展，并鼓励学员、早期职业研究者和来自代表性不足群体的个人在这一学科中追求研究事业。会议包括全体演讲、专题讨论会、口头和海报报告、该领域的技术/教育进展报告，以及在比较生理学中使用开放电子学的研讨会。为了实现会议目标，APS将管理一项旅行资助计划，为学员（本科生/研究生和博士后）和早期职业研究者提供旅行奖励，特别是来自代表性不足的群体（妇女、种族/少数民族和残疾人）的个人，他们提交的摘要将在会议上展示。预计将支持至少21人的旅行。该项目将有助于扩大年轻科学家的参与，重点关注代表性不足的群体的成员，使他们接触前沿的生理学研究，并为专业发展和建立网络提供独特的机会。将编写一份总结和综合内容和讨论的“观点”报告，以推进对不断变化的世界的有机反应的研究。该奖项由综合生态生理学（IEP）和综合有机体系统生物学部的生理机制和生物力学（PMB）项目共同资助。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award funds travel expenses for undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and early career investigators, in particular individuals from underrepresented groups, so they may present research results and participate in the American Physiological Society (APS) Intersociety Meeting, Comparative Physiology: From Organisms to Omics in an Uncertain World, in San Diego, California, October 28-31, 2022. The meeting provides a venue for the presentation of significant advances in understanding the integrative physiology of organisms, including humans and other animals. This meeting is an opportunity for comparative physiologists to report their newest research discoveries and to develop collaborations that spark scientific innovation. Broader impacts of the meeting include significant advancement of knowledge about organismal physiology, greater participation of individuals from underrepresented groups in comparative physiology research, and development of a globally diverse and more collaborative research workforce. The 2022 APS Intersociety Meeting, Comparative Physiology: From Organisms to Omics in an Uncertain World, seeks to promote the exchange of ideas and development of future collaborations of comparative and evolutionary physiologists internationally, and to encourage trainees, early career investigators, and individuals from underrepresented groups to pursue research careers in this discipline. The conference includes plenary lectures, symposia, contributed oral and poster presentations, presentations on technological/educational advances in the field, and a workshop on the use of open electronics in comparative physiology. In order to achieve the conference objectives, APS will administer a travel grant program offering travel awards to trainees (undergraduate/graduate students and postdoctoral fellows) and early career investigators, in particular individuals from underrepresented groups (women, racial/ethnic minorities, and disabled persons), who submit abstracts to be presented at the meeting. It is expected that travel for at least 21 individuals will be supported. The project will contribute to broadening the participation of young scientists, with an emphasis on members of under-represented groups, exposing them to cutting edge physiological research and providing unique opportunities for professional development and networking. A “perspectives” report that summarizes and synthesizes the content and discussions, to advance the study of organismal responses to a changing world, will be prepared.This award is co-funded by the Integrative Ecological Physiology (IEP) and Physiological Mechanisms and Biomechanics (PMB) Programs in the BIO Division of Integrative Organismal Systems.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
