Pathology of Mouse Models for Human Disease

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请申请为人类疾病小鼠模型病理学年度研讨会提供三年的支持。本次研讨会的目标是为下一代兽医和内科病理学家提供高强度、高水平、互动、为期一周的培训课程，这些病理学家将直接（作为pi和合作者）或间接（作为支持病理学家）参与人类疾病小鼠模型的开发和表征。通过保持小型和亲密，教师在大部分或全部研讨会期间与与会者互动，基于尊重和熟悉的网络将在小组中发展，就像过去的情况一样。围绕着一个高效率和充满激情的病理学家核心小组（组织团队），我们通过每个主办机构的工作人员组成的病理学专家和研究科学家轮换小组来改变项目，从而增加了来自全国和世界各地的专家的多样性和专业知识。研讨会将于2013年9月29日至10月5日在杰克逊实验室、伊萨卡的康奈尔大学（2014年）和西雅图的华盛顿大学（2015年）举行。虽然我们期望这次讲习班的形式与以前的讲习班类似，但我们将继续对科学界新出现的需要以及方法和技术的进步作出反应。我们计划继续从主办机构招聘“本地”人才的政策，以保持研讨会的新鲜感，但也为我们课程的“毕业生”提供机会，他们现在在小鼠病理学领域崭露头角。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application asks for three years of support for the Annual Workshop on the Pathology of Mouse Models for Human Disease. The goal of this workshop is to provide an intense, high-level, interactive, week-long training session aimed at the next generation of veterinary and physician pathologists who will work directly (as PIs and collaborators) and indirectly (as support pathologists) in the development and characterization of mouse models of human disease. By keeping it small and intimate, with the faculty staying to interact with the attendees throughout much or all of the workshop, networks based on respect and familiarity will develop amongst the group, as has been the case in the past. Surrounding a highly productive and passionate core group of pathologists (the organizing team), we vary the program with a rotating group of pathology specialists and research scientists building from the staff of each host institution and thereby adding diversity and expertise using specialists from around the country and the world. The workshop will be held at The Jackson Laboratory on September 29th - October 5th, 2013, Cornell University in Ithaca (2014) and the University of Washington in Seattle (2015). Although we expect the format to be similar to that of previous workshops, we will continue to be responsive with regard to the emerging needs of the scientific community, as well as to advances in methods and technology. We plan to continue our policy of recruiting "local" talent from hosting institutions in order to keep the workshop fresh, but als opening up opportunities for "graduates" of our course who now are becoming prominent in the field of mouse pathology.
