This international travel award to Oak Ridge Associated Universities provides support that will enable a diverse group of twenty-five U.S. graduate students to attend the annual meeting of Nobel Laureates in Lindau, Germany, in 2004, 2005, and 2006. Since 1951, Nobel Prize winners and students in chemistry, physics, and physiology or medicine have met annually in Lindau, Germany. Each year an international group of more than 400 students is invited to attend the weeklong meeting. The program includes formal lectures in the mornings and the remainder of each day is set aside for the students to meet informally with the Nobel Laureate scientists, as well as with their fellow students from around the world. Together with another twenty-five-member cohort supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, this grant brings to fifty the number of graduate students in the U.S. delegation that will participate in these meetings. The objective of this program is to motivate participating U.S. students toward excellence in their chosen careers through their exposure to and interaction with Nobel Laureates and fellow students from around the world.Broader impacts of this international travel activity and NSF support of it include the likely catalytic impact on the participating students' scientific career development, the potential for initiating career-long international scientific interactions, and the opportunity to promote diversity at multiple levels among the student participants.

这个国际旅行奖橡树岭联合大学提供的支持，将使一个多元化的组25美国研究生参加诺贝尔奖得主在林道，德国，在2004年，2005年和2006年的年会。 自1951年以来，诺贝尔奖获得者和化学、物理、生理学或医学专业的学生每年都在德国的林道聚会。 每年都有400多名国际学生应邀参加为期一周的会议。 该计划包括上午的正式讲座，每天的剩余时间留给学生与诺贝尔奖获得者科学家以及来自世界各地的同学进行非正式会面。 加上美国能源部支持的另外25名成员，这笔赠款使美国代表团中参加这些会议的研究生人数达到50人。 该项目的目标是通过与来自世界各地的诺贝尔奖获得者和同学接触和互动，激励参与的美国学生在他们选择的职业中走向卓越。这种国际旅行活动和NSF对其支持的更广泛影响包括对参与学生的科学职业发展可能产生的催化作用，启动职业生涯长期国际科学互动的潜力，以及在学生参与者中促进多层次多样性的机会。
