Charles Knobler is jointly funded by a grant from the Theoretical and Computational Chemistry Program in the Chemistry Division and the Americas Program in the Division of International Programs to hold a US-Mexico scientific meeting entitled: "2nd International Workshop on Current Problems in Complex Fluids: Thin Interfacial Films." The workshop will be held in Oaxaca, Mexico, on January 3-9, 1999, and has been jointly organized with Prof. Jaime Ruiz Garcia of the Institute of Physics of the University of San Luis de Potosi. The aim of the meeting is to discuss current developments in the field of thin organic films and related problems and to provide an environment for the establishment of joint research initiatives between Mexican and American scientific communities working in the field. The meeting will be sponsored jointly by NSF and CONACyT with additional support from the University of Mexico and the University of San Luis Potosi.The properties of complex fluid systems are employed to advantage in many areas of technology. They play important roles in many industries such as pharmaceutical, microelectronics, food, polymers, paints, and cosmetics. Their study is associated with the development of new technologies and materials including microreactors, model membranes, biological and chemical sensors, and biomolecular materials. There is active research in complex fluids in both the United States and Mexico, and informal interactions exist between the two scientific communities. This workshop will provide additional opportunities for establishing joint international research programs and to initiate contacts with prospective students and postdoctorals.

Charles Knobler由化学部理论和计算化学计划以及国际计划部美洲计划的赠款共同资助，举办了一次美国-墨西哥科学会议，题为：“第二届复杂流体当前问题国际研讨会：薄界面膜。“讲习班将于1999年1月3日至9日在墨西哥的瓦哈卡举行，是与圣路易斯-波托西大学物理研究所的Jaime Ruiz Garcia教授联合举办的。 会议的目的是讨论有机薄膜领域目前的发展情况和有关问题，并为墨西哥和美国科学界在这一领域开展联合研究活动提供一个环境。 该会议将由NSF和CONACyT联合主办，并得到墨西哥大学和圣刘易斯波托西大学的额外支持。复杂流体系统的特性在许多技术领域都具有优势。 它们在制药、微电子、食品、聚合物、涂料和化妆品等许多行业中发挥着重要作用。他们的研究与新技术和新材料的开发有关，包括微反应器，模型膜，生物和化学传感器以及生物分子材料。 美国和墨西哥都在积极研究复杂流体，两个科学界之间存在非正式的互动。 该研讨会将为建立联合国际研究项目提供额外的机会，并与未来的学生和博士后建立联系。
