Vasculata Conference 2023

摘要 Vasculata会议是一个密集的新兵训练营，于2004年首次举行。在.之下 在北美血管生物学组织(NAVBO)的赞助下，Vasculata拥有悠久的- 长期担任主要学术医学中心的东道主，目标是参与 下一代血管生物学研究人员。NAVBO教育委员会 一致选择杜兰大学作为2023年大会的举办地。瓦斯夸尔塔有 发展为会议，总出席人数为60人，在高峰时期超过140人 大流行。去年在杜克大学举行的会议吸引了超过125名与会者。通过 在心、肺和血液方面介绍学生并吸引实习生和早期职业教师 相关科学(HLBS)领域，本次会议希望吸引下一代 独立调查人员和内科科学家。2023年血管大会的重点 将在杜兰大学医学院健康科学中心校园举行， 由路易斯安那州泽维尔大学联合主办的关于血管的翻译科学应用 生物学和HLBS领域。此外，我们认识到，如果没有强有力的指导， 成为一名独立的调查员就更难了。为此，我们已经做出了 职业发展和指导也是今年会议的关键组成部分。这个 这次会议的主要目标是培养下一代内科科学家和研究人员， 吸引包括女性在内的代表性不足的少数族裔参加HLBS研究，并提供职业 发展和指导教育，以使这些早期职业研究人员成长。在……里面 为了促进这一目标，我们提出了以下目标： 1.促进代表人数不足的少数群体和妇女接触到人权理事会的研究。 2.讲授HLBS研究的基础知识和最新知识。 3.举办研讨会，介绍HLBS的现有方法和新兴方法 研究。 4.对学员进行关于HLBS研究的职业生涯路径的教育。 为了促进这些目标，我们要求NHLBI提供有限的资金来抵消部分成本 与在路易斯安那州杜兰大学/泽维尔大学主办这次会议有关。 实现这些目标将增加代表不足的少数群体在 并将培训和准备下一代为未来的HLBS研究。 这些目标直接与NHLBI的培训和研究任务部分保持一致。

Summary The Vasculata Conference is an intensive boot camp that was first held in 2004. Under the auspices of the North American Vascular Biology Organization (NAVBO), Vasculata has a long- standing history of being hosted at major academic medical centers with the goal of engaging the next generation of vascular biology investigators. The NAVBO Educational Committee unanimously selected Tulane University as the host site for the 2023 conference. Vascualta has grown as a conference with a total attendance of 60 attendees to over 140 at its peak pre- pandemic. Last year’s conference at Duke University attracted over 125 attendees. By introducing students and engaging trainees and early career faculty in heart, lung, and blood related science (HLBS) fields, this conference hopes to attract the next generation of independent investigators and physician scientists. Emphasis of the 2023 Vasculata Conference to be held at Tulane University School of Medicine at the Health Sciences Center campus and co-hosted by Xavier University of Louisiana is on translational science application of vascular biology and HLBS fields. Additionally, we recognize that without strong mentorship, the steps to becoming an independent investigator are even more difficult. To that end, we have made career development and mentorship a key component of the conference this year as well. The key goal of this meeting is to train the next generation of physician scientist and investigators, attract underrepresented minorities including women to HLBS research, and provide career development and mentoring education to allow growth of these early career researchers. In order to facilitate this goal, we propose the following objectives: 1. To facilitate exposure of underrepresented minorities and women to HLBS research. 2. To dispense basic and current knowledge in HLBS research. 3. To conduct workshops that introduces current and emerging methods in HLBS research. 4. To educate trainees regarding professional career paths in HLBS research. To facilitate these objectives, we request limited funds from NHLBI to offset some of the costs associated with hosting this conference at Tulane University /Xavier University of Louisiana. Accomplishing these objectives will increase representation of underrepresented minorities in HLBS research and will train and prepare next generation to the future of HLBS research. These goals are directly aligned with the training and research mission component of NHLBI.
