The NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on Nanostructured Materials: Science and Technology

CTS-9712360 Frank L.Huband和Gan-Moog Chow ASEE将向一个由大约8名年轻学术研究人员组成的小组提供部分旅行支持，以参加将于1977年8月11日至21日在俄罗斯圣彼得堡举行的关于纳米粒子合成、加工和纳米结构材料的科学和技术的北约高级研究所(ASI)。该研究所的目的是通过特邀演讲者向选定的高级博士生、博士后研究员和初级科学家提供关于最近事态发展的高级讲座；在来自不同国家的所有参与者之间交流科学意见；建立网络和促进合作，特别是在青年科学家之间。课程主题包括颗粒和薄层的合成和加工，颗粒的固结和结构的组装，表面和界面的化学和物理，以及相关的制造工艺和应用。除了全体讲座，还将鼓励海报会议、小组讨论和非正式互动。会议结束后不久，一本书将在北约-ASI丛书中出版。NSF的资金将用于选定的科学家和工程师参加该研究所。这笔赠款的旅行资金将仅用于美国公民、国民和永久居民。年轻的科学家和工程师，高级博士生或在完成博士学位后五年内，将获得优先考虑。通过考虑研究所将要讨论的新兴研究主题、讲座的质量、美国年轻科学家和工程师在国际环境中的暴露，这一活动将有助于美国年轻专家的形成，并有助于发展与世界顶尖研究人员的长期合作。

ABSTRACT CTS-9712360 Frank L. Huband and Gan-Moog Chow ASEE Partial travel support will be provided to a group of about eight young academic researchers to participate at the NATO-Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on science and technology of nanoparticle synthesis, processing and nanostructured materials to be held on August 11-21, 1977, at St. Petersburg, Russia. The Institute is aimed at providing advanced lectures on recent developments by invited speakers to selected advanced Ph.D. students, postdoctoral fellows and junior scientists; exchanges of scientific opinions among all participants from different countries; and networking and fostering collaborations particularly among young scientists. Tutorial topics include synthesis and processing of particles and thin layers, particle consolidation and assembly of structures, chemistry and physics of surfaces and interfaces, and related manufacturing processes and applications. Besides plenary lectures, poster sessions, small group discussions, and informal interactions will be encouraged. A book will be published in the NATO-ASI Series shortly after the meeting. The NSF funds will be used for selected scientists and engineers to attend the Institute. Travel funds from this grant will be used only for U.S. citizens, nationals, and permanent residents. Young scientists and engineers, advanced Ph.D. students or within five years after completion of their Ph.D., will receive priority. By considering the emerging topic of research to be discussed at the Institute, the quality of the lectures, the exposure of young U.S. scientists and engineers to the international environment, this activity will contribute to the formation of young specialists in U.S. and to development of long-term ollaborations with top researchers in the world.
