描述（由申请人提供）： 子宫颈癌是导致癌症死亡的主要原因之一， 这仍然是一个相当大的问题，尽管事实上， 子宫颈细胞涂片检查已大大降低了 发达国家 此外，宫颈上皮内瘤样病变的管理 肿瘤仍然非常需要改善，无论是在公共卫生 和临床的观点。 高危型人乳头瘤病毒（I-IPV） 感染是产生子宫颈癌的必要条件，但不是充分条件。 HPV也在其他部位的至少一部分癌症中起致病作用 比子宫颈。 I-IPV和癌症的跨学科研究是 解决这个复杂问题的所有方面。 对发展至关重要 这种信息交换平均每隔一段时间进行一次， 14-18个月，在国际乳头瘤病毒会议。 这些真正 跨学科会议是介绍当前 结果，所有调查人员在该领域，从流行病学家到 基础病毒学家，分子生物学家，免疫学家，临床研究人员， 以及研究动物乳头瘤病毒的科学家。 国际 乳头瘤病毒会议是确定该领域新方向的地方， 确定和解决的一般问题，来自不同领域的数据， 介绍和讨论，并在翻译研究的新途径， 字段已定义。 由于其跨学科广度和 深入对待每一个学科，会议也是一种理想 为实地青年调查人员、学生和博士后举办培训论坛 伙计们 这项建议是要求提供资金支付注册费，并 支付25名年轻调查员参加 2001-2006年的五次国际乳头瘤病毒会议， 支付这五个乳头瘤病毒会议的组织费用。

DESCRIPTION (Provided by applicant): Cervical cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death in underdeveloped regions, and remains a considerable problem, despite the fact that the Pap smear has reduced dramatically the incidence of invasive cervical carcinoma in developed countries. In addition, the management of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia is still in great need of improvement, both under a public health and a clinical point of view. High risk human papillomavirus (I-IPV) infection is necessary, although not sufficient, to produce cervical cancer. HPV also plays a causative role in at least a subset of cancers at other sites than the cervix. Interdisciplinary studies of I-IPV and cancer are pivotal to address all of the facets of this complex problem. Vital to the progress of this is the exchange of information that takes place, on average, once every 14-18 months, at the International Papillomavirus Conferences. These truly interdisciplinary conferences are the major forum for presentation of current results by all investigators in the field, from the epidemiologists to the basic virologists, molecular biologists, immunologists, clinical researchers, and those working on animal papillomaviruses. The International Papillomavirus Conference is where new directions in the field are determined, general problems identified and addressed, data from diverse areas are presented and discussed, and new avenues for translational research in the field are defined. Due to its optimal mix of interdisciplinary breadth and in-depth treatment of each discipline, the Conference is also an ideal training forum for young investigators in the field, students and postdoctoral fellows. This proposal is to request funds to cover registration fees, and to partially defray travel expenses, for 25 young investigators to attend the next five International Papillomavirus Conferences 2001-2006, and to partially cover organizational expenses for these five Papillomavirus Conferences.
