United States Participation in Intelligent Systems in Molecular Biology Conference

这项为期一年的奖项将资助美国学生和青年科学家参加1997年6月21日至24日在希腊举行的分子生物学智能系统(ISMB)会议。这是这一新成立的计算生物学子领域会议的第五次，这是智能系统在分子生物学问题上的应用。1997年的会议是第二次在国际地点举行的此类会议。其目标包括召集足够数量的研究人员，将先进的计算技术应用于分子生物学问题，创造跨学科的教育机会，并促进妇女和少数群体的参与。该奖项将支持最多20名研究生或博士后研究员参加会议，他们是提交给会议的论文的共同作者。会议的欧洲地点将为处于职业生涯早期的美国研究人员提供国际机会。

This one-year award will support participation of US students and young scientists to attend the Intelligent Systems in Molecular Biology (ISMB) Conference to be held in Greece , 21-24 June 1997. This is the fifth in this newly established conference in the subfield of computational biology, application of intelligent systems to problems in molecular biology. The 1997 conference is the second of these conferences held at an international site. Its goals include convening a critical mass of researchers applying advanced computational techniques to problems in molecular biology, creating cross- disciplinary educational opportunities, and fostering the involvement of women and minorities. This award will support the participation in the conference of up to 20 graduate students or postdoctoral fellows, who are co-authors of papers submitted to the conference. The European site of the meeting will provide international opportunities for US researchers at an early stage in their careers.
