This award, which is jointly funded by the Divisions of Chemistry and Materials Research, supports a series of Materials Chemistry Workshops, which are to be organized by Dr. Peter K. Dorhout at Colorado State University. Participants in these workshops, which will be held in the autumns of 2004 through 2006. will be drawn from applicants from all aspects of the field of materials chemistry with peer-reviewed selection. Approximately 30 participants will attend each workshop, which are designed to bring together scientists with common materials chemistry interests from diverse backgrounds including inorganic, organic, physical, biological, polymer and analytical chemistry as well as other science and engineering disciplines. The workshops provide a focus for the technologically critical field of materials chemistry from both educational and research points of view. In addition, the workshops promote dialogue and collaboration between industry, government and academic scientists in a forum that identifies fundamental and technological problems and stimulates their investigation. The intellectual merit of these workshops derives from the networks that organically develop between the participants during the informal and vivid discussions inherent to these workshops as breaking science is presented and new collaborative research efforts are explored. Faculty from Predominantly Undergraduate Institutions (PUIs) can connect with felow researchers in larger universities, industry and national laboratories to learn of new research and new opportunities. The atmosphere of these materials chemistry workshops will continue to be conducive to discussion and dissemination of ideas via the following means: (i) The broadest possible solicitation for applicants, aimed at all sectors of the materials chemistry community with special attention to encouraging industrial, government, minority, women, and young materials chemists to apply. (ii) Selection of participants based on merit-based criteria designed to produce a diverse and interactive group of participants. (iii) Adherence to a presentation format that promotes discussion of ideas and discourages formal presentation of past research results. Within these guidelines, the workshops provide for informal, provocative and stimulating discussions of new directions in materials chemistry.

该奖项由化学和材料研究部门共同资助，支持一系列材料化学研讨会，由Peter K.科罗拉多州立大学的Dorhout。 这些讲习班将于2004年至2006年秋季举行。将从材料化学领域的各个方面的申请人中挑选，并经过同行评审。每个研讨会将有大约30名与会者参加，这些研讨会旨在汇集来自不同背景的具有共同材料化学兴趣的科学家，包括无机，有机，物理，生物，聚合物和分析化学以及其他科学和工程学科。这些研讨会从教育和研究的角度为材料化学的技术关键领域提供了一个重点。 此外，讲习班还促进工业界、政府和学术界科学家在一个论坛上进行对话和合作，以查明基本问题和技术问题，并促进对这些问题的调查。这些讲习班的知识价值来自于在这些讲习班所固有的非正式和生动的讨论期间，与会者之间有机发展的网络，因为提出了突破性的科学，并探索了新的合作研究努力。 来自主要本科院校（PUI）的教师可以与大型大学，工业和国家实验室的研究人员联系，以了解新的研究和新的机会。这些材料化学研讨会的气氛将继续有利于通过以下方式讨论和传播想法：（i）尽可能广泛地征求申请人，针对材料化学界的所有部门，特别注意鼓励工业，政府，少数民族，妇女和年轻的材料化学家申请。(ii)根据择优标准选择参与者，旨在产生一个多样化和互动的参与者群体。(iii)坚持一种演讲格式，促进思想的讨论，不鼓励正式介绍过去的研究成果。在这些指导方针的范围内，研讨会提供了非正式的，挑衅性的和刺激性的讨论材料化学的新方向。
