小行星9602144 第12届国际生物物理学大会 国际纯粹和应用生物物理学联合会将于1996年8月11日至16日在荷兰阿姆斯特丹举行大会和第12届国际大会。 建议生物物理学会管理一项旅行补助计划，向可能需要此类援助的合格美国科学家提供数量有限的旅行奖励，优先考虑年轻的研究人员和受邀参与者。 美国国家科学院国际纯粹与应用生物物理学联合会（USNC/IUPAB）美国国家委员会将分发申请，并接收完成的申请。 筛选旅费资助申请的责任将由生物物理学会的一个委员会承担，该委员会由学会的理事会或其执行委员会根据USNC/IUPAB提供的候选人名单选出。 生物物理学会和USNC/IUPAB认为，应协助合格的美国科学家参加这次大会，以促进生物物理研究数据的最新重大发展和传播的交流，而不是以期刊的形式出现。 为了促进最大数量的美国科学家获得旅行奖励，生物物理学会同意在不收取管理费的情况下管理这一计划。 %%%

9602144 Lester 12th International Biophysics Congress Travel Program The International Union for Pure and Applied Biophysics will hold its General Assembly and 12th International Congress in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, on 11-16, August 1996. It is proposed that the Biophysical Society administer a travel grant program offering a limited number of travel awards to qualified U.S. Scientists who may require such assistance, with preference to young investigators and invited participants. The U.S. National Committee for the International Union of Pure and Applied Biophysics (USNC/IUPAB) of the National Academy of Sciences will distribute applications, and receive the completed applications. Responsibility for screening travel grant applications will be vested in a Committee of the Biophysical Society chosen by the Council of the Society or its Executive Committee for a slate of candidates provided by USNC/IUPAB. The Biophysical Society and the USNC/IUPAB feel that qualified U.S. scientists should be assisted to attend this Congress to facilitate exchange of recent significant developments and dissemination of biophysical research data long before it could appear in journal form. In order to facilitate the maximum number of U.S. scientists in receiving travel awards, the Biophysical Society has agreed to manage this program without assessing an overhead charge. %%%
