Conf. on the Cell and Molecular Biology of Chlamydomonas

描述(申请人提供)：第十届衣藻细胞和分子生物学国际会议将于2002年6月11-16日在加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华举行。两年一度的衣原体会议汇聚了一个由来自欧洲、亚洲、澳大利亚和北美的200名研究人员组成的高度互动和合作的社区。这一相对较少的科学家群体的国际性已被证明是发展衣藻作为许多基本生物学问题的模式生物的宝贵价值，这些问题包括鞭毛和基础身体功能和组装、细胞器生物合成及其核/细胞器控制、配子分化和生命周期进程以及光合作用和趋光性。此应用程序征集旅行资金，以使受邀的演讲者、博士后研究员和研究生能够参加在温哥华举行的会议。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 10th International Conference on the Cell and Molecular Biology of Chlamydomonas will be held in Vancouver, B.C Canada on June 11-16, 2002. The biennial Chlamydomonas meetings bring together a highly interactive and collaborative community of -200 researchers from Europe, Asia, Australia and North America. The international nature of this relatively small group of scientists has proven invaluable in the development of Chlamydomonas as the model organism of choice for many fundamental biological problems, including flagellar and basal body function and assembly, organelle biosynthesis and its nuclear/organelle control, gametic differentiation and life-cycle progression, and photosynthesis and phototaxis. This application solicits travel funds to enable invited speakers, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students to attend the meeting in Vancouver.
