Errington, Jeffrey R., et alSUNY BuffaloThis is a proposal for travel support for approximately fifty graduate students and postdoctoral researchers to attend the "2004 Midwest Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics Meeting" in Buffalo, NY on June 3 - 4, 2004.This meeting emphasizes presentations and participation by graduate students and postdoctoral scholars working in all areas of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. NSF-CTS has provided student travel funds for this meeting several times in the past, and this action has been important in making attendance at this meeting widely accessible to graduate students.Broader Societal Impacts:The Midwest Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics Meeting is an annual forum for engineers and scientists in the Midwestern U.S. to present and discuss their work. All aspects of theoretical, computational, and experimental thermodynamics research are included in this meeting. This meeting has a strong tradition of emphasizing presentations from younger researchers, including undergraduate students, graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and young faculty, in a collegial atmosphere. This grant will benefit young researchers who traditionally have a harder time obtaining the finances needed to attend major conferences.The meeting will feature 30 to 35 contributed talks (20 minutes in length) and 4 invited speakers (each given 40 minutes). The invited speakers will be:o Fernando Escobedo, Assistant Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, Cornell Universityo Christopher Roberts, Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering, University of Delawareo Daniel Lacks, Professor of Chemical Engineering, Case Western Universityo Sharon Glotzer, Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering, University of MichiganThe invited speakers have been chosen in part to continue the traditional aim of this meeting to recognize researchers at early points in their careers. As in previous years, the meeting will not include any parallel sessions, so all participants are expected to attend all presentations. This creates a collegial atmosphere and encourages student participants to listen to presentations on a broad range of topics.

这是一项为大约50名研究生和博士后研究人员提供旅行支持的提案，他们将参加2004年6月3-4日在纽约州布法罗举行的“2004中西部热力学和统计力学会议”。本次会议强调从事热力学和统计力学所有领域工作的研究生和博士后学者的演讲和参与。NSF-CTS过去曾多次为这次会议提供学生旅费，这一行动对于让研究生更容易参加这次会议起到了重要作用。广泛的社会影响：中西部热力学和统计力学会议是美国中西部工程师和科学家展示和讨论他们工作的年度论坛。这次会议涵盖了理论、计算和实验热力学研究的方方面面。这次会议有着浓厚的传统，强调年轻研究人员的演讲，包括本科生、研究生、博士后研究人员和年轻教职员工，在大学氛围中。这笔赠款将使年轻的研究人员受益，他们传统上很难获得参加大型会议所需的资金。会议将有30至35场演讲(20分钟长)和4名受邀演讲(每人40分钟)。被邀请的演讲者将是：O Fernando EScott bedo，康奈尔大学化学和生物分子工程助理教授Christopher Roberts，Delawareo Daniel Lks大学化学工程助理教授，Case Western University化学工程教授Sharon Glotzer，密歇根大学化学工程副教授Sharon Glotzer。与往年一样，会议将不包括任何平行会议，因此预计所有与会者都将出席所有情况介绍。这创造了一种大学氛围，并鼓励学生参与者听取关于广泛主题的陈述。
