Adler 0330166 AbstractThis proposal requests funds to bring together junior scientists actively involved in multi- disciplinary work in plant-insect interactions. The central goals of this symposium would be to 1)exchange ideas on how to expand theory and multidisciplinary experiments, 2) work in small groups, with meaningful input of graduate students and postdocs, to address specific research questions, and 3) brainstorm ideas on specific issues relating to junior faculty development. The topic was chosen because of its long historical importance in ecology and evolution and because recent technological developments and integrative approaches are rapidly changing the face of the discipline. The request is for funds to support airfare and subsistence for 6 junior participants (3 grad students/post-docs and 3 junior faculty) and 3 senior faculty. The Ecology Program supports a broad range of work in the area of plant-herbivore interactions making the topic relevant. Moreover, the University of Toronto is contributing much more to the workshop than NSF, meaning there is an excellent leverage of NSF funds.Broader Impacts:The focus on young investigators and foreign collaborations translates into very strong broader impacts.

阿德勒0330166 这一建议要求资金，以汇集年轻的科学家积极参与多学科的工作，在植物-昆虫相互作用。本次研讨会的中心目标是：1）就如何扩大理论和多学科实验交换意见，2）在小组中工作，研究生和博士后的有意义的投入，以解决具体的研究问题，3）就有关初级教师发展的具体问题集思广益。 之所以选择这个主题，是因为它在生态学和进化中具有长期的历史重要性，而且最近的技术发展和综合方法正在迅速改变这门学科的面貌。请求提供资金，以支持6名初级参与者（3名格拉德生/博士后和3名初级教师）和3名高级教师的机票和生活费。 生态计划支持在植物-食草动物相互作用领域的广泛工作，使主题相关。 此外，多伦多大学对研讨会的贡献比NSF大得多，这意味着NSF的资金有很好的杠杆作用。更广泛的影响：对年轻研究人员和外国合作的关注转化为非常强大的更广泛的影响。
