9603186 Malin The American Chemical Society, working together with the chemical societies or scientific academies of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica and Mexico, will organize and monitor two-month visits by young Latin American scientists to laboratories in the United States. During the two years of the project, the American Chemical Society will select three participants from each country from among nominees identified by the counterpart organizations. As a pilot project, at least two additional scientists will be selected to visit industrial laboratories in the United States. The host companies will furnish the stipends for the industrial visitors. Costs of international travel will be borne by the visitors' countries of origin. A major benefit to the United States scientific community will be the establishment of long-term collaborative research relationships between US laboratories and some of the outstanding young chemical scientists in Latin America. This will facilitate investigation jointly with US scientists of important scientific problems, for example, in natural products chemistry and environmental chemistry. A second major effect of the program will be to strengthen working relationships between US organizations and Latin American scientific societies and academies. Finally, the program will foster interactions between young scholars from the region and US industry, which, in the spirit of the NAFTA accord, will benefit both sides as the Latin American economies continue to expand. This award is jointly supported by the Chemistry and the International Divisions of NSF. ***

9603186 Malin美国化学学会将与阿根廷、巴西、智利、哥斯达黎加和墨西哥的化学学会或科学院合作，组织和监督年轻的拉丁美洲科学家对美国实验室进行为期两个月的访问。在该项目的两年期间，美国化学会将从对应组织确定的提名者中从每个国家选出三名参与者。作为一个试点项目，至少另外两名科学家将被选中访问美国的工业实验室。主办公司将为工业来访者提供津贴。国际旅行的费用将由游客的原籍国承担。美国科学界的一个主要利益将是在美国实验室和拉丁美洲一些杰出的年轻化学科学家之间建立长期的合作研究关系。这将有助于与美国科学家共同研究重要的科学问题，例如天然产物化学和环境化学。该计划的第二个主要影响将是加强美国组织与拉丁美洲科学学会和科学院之间的工作关系。最后，该项目将促进该地区年轻学者与美国工业界之间的互动，本着北美自由贸易协定的精神，在拉美经济继续扩张的过程中，这将使双方受益。该奖项由美国国家科学基金会化学与国际部联合资助。＊＊＊
