PI: Pearson Institution: Georgia Institute of TechnologyWith this award, the Special Projects Office of the Division of Chemistry and the Office of Multidisciplinary Affairs of the Mathematics and Physical Sciences Directorate is supporting Dr. Willie Pearson of the Department of History, Technology and Society, Georgia Institute of Technology to organize and conduct a workshop entitled "Postdoctoral Appointments: Roles and Opportunities". Dr. Robert Lichter of Merrimack Consultants, LLC and Dr. Geraldine L. Richmond of the University of Oregon are co-PI of the project. The goal of the workshop is to explore the nature and merit of initiating a postdoctoral program in chemistry that may serve as a model throughout NSF. Elements that will be considered include: 1) A better understanding of the processes, characteristics and outcomes of the postdoctoral appointment. 2) A statement of concepts, opportunities and priorities for activities at the postdoctoral level by the chemistry division, and the NSF more generally, that will strengthen the human resource base necessary to maintain leadership in science, mathematics and engineering. The workshop will be developed by a ten-person steering committee that will oversee all phases of planning, development and implementation of the workshop, and drafting a final report. The workshop will be attended by a demographically diverse group of approximately 60-70 participants. Attendees will include academic and industrial administrators, representatives from national labs, industrial labs, funding agencies and from undergraduate and graduate institutions. The workshop report will inform the planning process for NSF supported activities at the postdoctoral level in the Division of Chemistry and the MPS Directorate.

PI：皮尔逊机构：佐治亚理工学院获得此奖项，化学系特别项目办公室和数学与物理科学理事会多学科事务办公室将支持佐治亚理工学院历史、技术与社会系的 Willie Pearson 博士组织和举办题为“博士后任命：角色和机会”的研讨会。 Merrimack Consultants, LLC 的 Robert Lichter 博士和俄勒冈大学的 Geraldine L. Richmond 博士是该项目的联合 PI。 研讨会的目标是探索启动化学博士后项目的性质和优点，该项目可以作为整个 NSF 的典范。 将考虑的要素包括：1）更好地了解博士后任命的过程、特征和结果。 2) 化学部门和 NSF 博士后级别活动的概念、机会和优先事项的声明，这将加强维持科学、数学和工程领域领导地位所需的人力资源基础。 该研讨会将由一个十人指导委员会制定，该委员会将监督研讨会的规划、开发和实施的所有阶段，并起草最终报告。 该研讨会将由大约 60 至 70 名参与者组成的不同群体参加。 与会者将包括学术和工业管理人员、来自国家实验室、工业实验室、资助机构以及本科生和研究生机构的代表。 研讨会报告将为 NSF 支持的化学司和 MPS 理事会的博士后级别活动的规划过程提供信息。
