PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF THE SPLANCHNIC CIRCULATION

描述：此申请是为夏季会议提供部分资金 关于内脏循环的生理学和病理生理学。这 会议将在美国联合会的赞助下举行 美国实验生物学学会将于1998年7月19日至24日举行会议。 会议将在威尔逊维尔的纳马斯特度假中心举行， 俄勒冈州，将限制为165名基础和临床科学家，他们将是 根据他们的专业知识和兴趣进行选择。届时将有9大 科学会议，由该领域的专家进行4至5次口头陈述。 公开讨论将占每节课约25%的时间。那里 将有两个海报会议，以便提供另一种形式的演示 数据。会议的主要议题是：1)转基因技术的应用和 基因敲除小鼠对血管生理学的研究，2)血管的修饰 转基因和免疫靶向的细胞功能，3)血小板，血栓形成 和微循环，4)血液元素与内皮细胞的相互作用 细胞，5)细胞生理学技术，6)血管平滑生物学 肌肉细胞，7)阻力血管的病理生理学，8) 癌症的微循环，以及9)细胞外环境和 微血管功能。该计划将达到两个重要目标。 其中一项将使参与者接触到各种最先进的动物 模型和细胞技术正在改变科学家们 研究一下循环。其次，该计划将定义以下领域 研究主题中的争议、不确定性和共识 一直是历届会议的焦点。

DESCRIPTION: This application is for partial funding of a Summer Conference on Physiology and Pathophysiology of the Splanchnic Circulation. This conference will be held under the auspices of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) from July 19th to the 24th, 1998. The conference will be held at the Namaste Retreat Center in Wilsonville, Oregon and will be limited to 165 basic and clinical scientists, who will be selected on the basis of their expertise and interest. There will 9 major scientific sessions with 4 to 5 oral presentations by experts in the field. Open discussion will take approximately 25 percent of each session. There will be two poster sessions to allow for an additional form for presentation of data. Major topics of the meeting are: 1) Application of transgenic and knockout mice to studies of vascular physiology, 2) Modification of vascular cell function by transfection and immunotargeting, 3) Platelets, thrombosis and the microcirculation, 4) Interaction of blood elements with endothelial cells, 5) Techniques in cell physiology, 6) Biology of the vascular smooth muscle cell, 7) Pathophysiology of the resistance vasculature, 8) the microcirculation in cancer, and 9) The extracellular environment and microvascular function. The program will meet two important objectives. One will expose the participants to a wide array of state-of-the-art animal models and cellular techniques that are changing the way in which scientists study the circulation. Secondly, the program will define areas of controversy, uncertainty, and agreement in research topics that have not been the focus of prior conferences.
