Integrating Genetics and Social Sciences Annual Conference

项目摘要 该提案要求提供五年的资金，以支持继续举行题为“将性别观点纳入主流”的会议， 遗传学和社会科学（IGSS），每年在博尔德的科罗拉多大学举行 从2010年到2017年这个为期两天的会议将继续展示新的经验工作的基因环境 相互作用，并将努力界定这一新的和令人兴奋的领域的轮廓。2010年会议得到了支持 由美国人口协会，NICHD资助的科罗拉多大学人口中心（CUPC）， 以及科罗拉多大学社会学系。2011年和2012年的会议得到了 R13 HD 066811和2013-2017会议由R13 HD 078100支持。这一新的提交是 寻求支持，以便在2018年至2022年期间继续举行这一会议。与上一个项目一样，本项目的目标 建议是：（1）为基因-环境相互作用领域的领导者提供一个分享他们的 理论、方法和实质性知识;（2）产生新的和 基因-环境相互作用领域的跨学科出版物;（3）确定新的问题， 迄今为止，在这方面的研究不足。与上一次会议一样，会议将继续举办为期半天的研讨会， 由该领域的领导者提供的统计遗传学的当前方法。

PROJECT SUMMARY This proposal requests five years of funding to support the continuation of the conference entitled Integrating Genetics and the Social Sciences (IGSS) which has been held annually at the University of Colorado at Boulder from 2010-2017. This two-day conference will continue to showcase new empirical work on gene-environment interplay and will strive to define the contours of this new and exciting area. The 2010 conference was supported by the Population Association of America, the NICHD funded University of Colorado Population Center (CUPC), and the Department of Sociology at the University of Colorado. The 2011 and 2012 meetings were supported by R13 HD066811 and the 2013-2017 meetings were supported by R13 HD078100. This new submission is seeking support to continue this conference from 2018 to 2022. As with the previous project, the goals of this proposal are: (1) to provide a venue for the leaders in the area of gene-environment interplay to share their theoretical, methodological, and substantive knowledge with one another; (2) to produce new and interdisciplinary publications in the area of gene-environment interplay; and (3) to identify new issues that are, to date, understudied in this area. As with the previous conference will continue to host a ½ day workshop on the current methods in statistical genetics provided by leaders in the area.
