YOUNG SCIENTIST SUPPORT FOR VISION STUDIES

视觉和眼科研究协会(ARVO)成立 1928年，鼓励和协助研究、培训、出版和 传播视觉和眼科方面的知识。初级阶段 实现这一目标的工具是Arvo的年度科学会议， 5000多名科学家齐聚一堂，交流有关当前愿景和 眼科研究。这次会议在 培养年轻的调查人员。会议提供了一个论坛，不仅是 用于介绍和批评他们的工作，但也是一个非正式的背景 在这里他们可以讨论他们的研究问题。通过将 在他们所在领域的领导者，他们可以看到继续奉献的价值 致力于他们的研究。 这笔赠款的目的是为前往 阿尔沃会议为那些显示出潜力的年轻调查人员 未来的重大研究成果，以及谁的研究成果 将在会议上提交的报告被认为是 视力和眼科社区。作为Arvo正在进行的计划的一部分 吸引和留住有前途的年轻调查人员，他们有资格成为成员 在生物医学研究中，代表不足的少数族裔和其他群体 和其作品被接受展示，高达25%的旅行 将提供赠款资金，以支持他们。 旅行补助金的获奖者是由一个资深人士委员会选出的 研究人员，他们是主要的评价者。执行委员会 阿尔沃(总裁、副总统、前总统、前副总统， 和秘书/财务主管)审核选择，并担任次要 审查小组。

The Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO) was founded in 1928 to encourage and assist research, training, publication, and dissemination of knowledge in vision and ophthalmology. The primary vehicle for achieving this goal is ARVO's Annual Scientific Meeting where over 5,000 scientists meet to exchange information on current vision and ophthalmology research. This meeting is of particular importance in the development of young investigators. The meeting provides a forum, not only for presentation and critique of their work, but also an informal setting in which they can discuss their research problems. By associating with the leaders in their field, they can see the value of continued dedicated effort towards their research. The objective of this grant is to provide partial support for the travel to the ARVO Meeting for those young investigators who demonstrate potential for future significant research accomplishment, and whose research findings to be presented at the meeting are considered to be of high interest to the vision and ophthalmology community. As part of ARVO's ongoing initiative to attract and retain promising young investigators, who qualify as members of underrepresented minorities, and other groups, in biomedical research and whose work is accepted for presentation, up to 25 percent of the travel grant funds will be made available for their support. Awardees of the travel grants are selected by a committee of senior researchers, who serve as the primary reviewers. The Executive Committee of ARVO (President, Vice President, Past President, Past Vice President, and Secretary/Treasurer) reviews the selections and serves as the secondary review team.
