PROJECT SUMMARY The objectives of the 2026 GRC “Lymphatics” are to present state-of-the-art research on the lymphatic vascular system, to fuel scientific exchange across scientific disciplines and expertise, and to spearhead new ideas and collaborations. The meeting will bring together investigators from all backgrounds and from all career stages, converging on lymphatics as one common theme. Specific Aims are (1) To present conceptual advances in research of the lymphatic vascular system and its pathologies; (2) To discuss paradigm shifting findings of lymphatics in different organ systems and their contribution to disease; (3) To integrate knowledge from different disciplines; and (4) To nurture junior investigators and trainees entering the lymphatic research field. Sessions will cover conceptual advances in development and disease of lymphatic vessels from basic aspects to potential clinical applications. The meeting will highlight recent insights into the diversity and organ-specificity of lymphatic endothelium. Novel molecular regulators for lymphatic vasculature during bone development, Schlemm’s canal in the eye and lacteals in the intestine will be discussed. New factors regulating lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic integrity will be introduced. Advances in research on lymphatic malformations, lymphedema and other congenital lymphatic diseases will be discussed. The meeting will also present emerging concepts on the role of lymphatics in atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and congestive heart failure. Paradigm shifts in the field will be presented, and crosstalk between lymphatics and immune system discussed. Advances in understanding how lymphatics contribute to disease, including cardiovascular inflammation, cancer, autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases will be highlighted. A key goal for this meeting is to serve as a platform for growth of lymphatic research, and for helping to promote new scientists entering this research field. Abundant opportunities for the presentation of research by early career investigators will be provided. The GRS on Lymphatics organized by junior investigators will provide opportunities exclusively for junior investigators to present their work and form collaborations. Aside from presentation and poster sessions, a career development session will also be held during GRS to provide guidance to those just getting their start in the lymphatic research field, and to discuss strategies for how to navigate issues impeding lymphatic research or obstacles to participation by incoming lymphatic researchers. A patient session will also be held to allow researchers to hear from those suffering from lymphatic diseases and hear their perspective on the potential promise of translating lymphatic research into new therapies. The sponsoring organization is dedicated to advancing the frontiers of science. In accordance with its mission, this conference will place emphasis on the presentation of unpublished data, high-quality science and rich discussions in many fields, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, immunology, metabolism and neurobiology. We anticipate that the opportunities provided to young investigators participating in this conference will facilitate their rise as future leaders of the lymphatic research field.

NCCIH - National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health

Project Summary Natural products research involves highly interdisciplinary fields focused on translation of chemically and biologically complex natural products to applications for human health and health outcomes. The evolution of natural products as potentially multifunctional ligands with highly specific affinities for health-relevant targets has provided opportunities to develop therapeutic agents for cancers, infectious diseases, and neurological disorders, as well as for multisystem, multicomponent diseases and conditions. Natural products from the marine environment have provided unique molecular scaffolds that interact with biological targets and signaling pathways to effect changes in phenotype and physiology, resulting in several that have translated to clinical use. In addition, transformational advances in biosynthesis, target profiling, and analytical technologies are poised for incorporation in computational tools using machine learning for discovery of natural products and their biological signatures. The 2026 Marine Natural Products (MNP) Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) and Gordon Research Conference (GRC) are planned for February 28 – March 6, 2026, in Ventura, California. The GRS is a unique forum for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to present and exchange new data and innovative ideas across the scope of basic and applied MNP research. The GRC will bring together early career and established researchers from academia, industry, and government (including all GRS participants) to address the discovery, characterization and functional development of MNPs. Sessions will focus on technological advances to spur new discovery, discovery of new molecular targets and receptors, computational informatics challenges and opportunities, symbiosis and microbiome interactions to facilitate discovery, biosynthesis and bioengineering for molecule and target discovery, bioactive molecules from marine sources, integrating novel synthetic approaches for enhanced discovery, and marine biogeochemistry to address microbial challenges. Our specific aims for the conference include: (1) providing a forum for emerging and established scientific leaders to present cutting-edge MNP research; (2) stimulating multi-disciplinary collaborations and providing opportunities for interdisciplinary activities; (3) highlighting biological targets, physiological function, and translational applications of MNPs; and (4) providing training for graduate students and early career scientists to promote broad participation. The collegial atmosphere of the MNP GRS and GRC will foster collaborations, provide training opportunities, and promote exchange of ideas amongst leaders in the field and new participants. NIH support will be used to enhance participation by graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and early career faculty at the GRC, as well as for postdoctoral fellows and graduate students attending the GRS. Ample opportunities for scientific exchange and networking, both in and outside of meeting sessions, will foster new collaborations that bridge scientific disciplines and potentiate paradigm shifts in natural product sciences.

Project Summary Building upon the success of past meetings, the 2026 Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Thalamocortical Interactions will bring together leading neuroscientists, from early career to established investigators, to discuss the latest breakthroughs in understanding the functions of the nervous system influenced by the thalamus. The scientific sessions will highlight cutting-edge discoveries on thalamus-brain interactions in normal and disease conditions. Session topics will include the role of the thalamus in brain plasticity and stroke recovery, movement, decision-making, development, and visual and tactile sensory processing, as well as topics new to this GRC, such as thalamic contributions to pain and itch processing, conscious states, addiction, and motivation. A major goal of this international conference is to foster interactions among scientists at all career stages, from graduate student and postdoctoral fellows to early career and senior investigators and spanning wide-ranging areas of expertise and interests to brainstorm new hypotheses related to thalamic function and to stimulate new collaborations. Leading researchers in the field will present their most current, unpublished work with extensive discussion planned for each session. Discussion will be further fostered during time set aside for more informal interactions. To promote the next generation of neuroscientists, short talks will be selected from abstracts submitted by graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. In addition, junior faculty represent a third of confirmed invited speakers. Finally, this GRC will be preceded by a Gordon Research Seminar (GRS), organized by graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, which will feature talks and posters by trainees. The GRS will serve as a forum for trainees to present their work and to broaden their peer network and will complement the GRC in bringing together scientists from around the world to discuss and identify new directions in thalamus-brain interactions. The 2026 conference promises to continue the highly regarded tradition and reputation established by the decade-long history of the Thalamocortical Interactions GRC series, bringing top neuroscientists from around the world to communicate innovative science, develop new hypotheses of thalamus function, establish new collaborations among participants, and nurture the next generation of young neuroscientists.
