ABSTRACT
 The Association for Research in Otolaryngology (ARO) is requesting continued
support from of an NIDCD Conference Grant for its annual Midwinter Research
Meeting (MWM). The MWM is a unique meeting where current basic and clinical
research related to otolaryngology is presented. In addition to poster
presentations and podium sessions where cutting edge research is presented, the
meeting includes symposia and workshops that allow presentation of up-to-date
summaries of broad scientific issues that extend beyond the field of
otolaryngology. These symposia typically include invited scientists and clinician-
scientists from related fields whose work may be relevant to emerging areas of
research in otolaryngology. The symposia have been supported by the
Conference Grant for more than 25 years and have contributed to the success of
the meeting, as evidence by its growth over the years.
 The growth and development of otolaryngology research depends on bringing
young investigators into the field. Travel awards for young investigators, including
residents, medical students, and minority pre-doctoral and postdoctoral fellows
have been supported by the NIDCD Conference Grant. We request support to
continue these activities.
 In addition, the NIDCD Conference Grant would continue to enhance
accessibility of the MWM for individuals with disabilities, particularly those with
hearing impairments.
