9603561 Stewart This proposal requests support for travel compensation for graduate students to present results of basic research at the third World Conference of Herpetology. No other meeting in the field of herpetology bring together such a diversity of researchers and veiwpoints as does this Congress. The Congress will be held in Prague, Czech Republic from August 2 - 10, 1997. The previous World Congresses have provided avenues for presenting current, innovative, problem-oriented biology that have contributed to the advancement of many disciplines of science. The third World Congress is designed in a similar multidisciplinary fashion. As such, these meetings are of particular value to students. Individual travel awards will be made by a selection committee of three experts (one each from the major cooperating U.S.-based societies, the American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists, the Herpetologists League, and the Society for Study of Amphibians and Reptiles). The experience gained by student-participants at this conference will help insure that researchers in the United States remain at the center of international research activity concerning general advances in biology, and particularly advances in the biology of lower vertebrates.

本提案要求支持研究生在第三届世界爬虫学大会上展示基础研究成果的差旅费。在爬行动物学领域，没有任何其他会议能像本届大会那样汇集如此多样化的研究人员和观点。大会将于1997年8月2日至10日在捷克共和国布拉格举行。以前的世界大会为展示当前的、创新的、面向问题的生物学提供了途径，这些途径促进了许多科学学科的进步。第三届世界大会也是以类似的多学科方式设计的。因此，这些会议对学生来说特别有价值。个人旅行奖将由三位专家组成的评选委员会颁发（三位专家分别来自美国主要的合作学会：美国鱼类学和爬虫学学会、爬虫学联盟和两栖类和爬虫学研究学会）。参加这次会议的学生所获得的经验将有助于确保美国的研究人员继续处于国际研究活动的中心，这些研究活动涉及生物学的一般进展，特别是低等脊椎动物生物学的进展。
