This award will help to support a workshop on nanoscale forces and interfacial phenomena to be held in Cancun, Mexico around January 2006. Organized by Dr. Norma Alcantar of the U. of South Florida and Dr. Phillip A Pincus of the U. of California-Santa Barbara, together with international partners Dr. Tomas Viveros of the Universidad Autonoma Metropolitana in Iztapalapa, Mexico, Dr. Suzanne Giasson, of the University of Montreal, and Dr. Roger Horn of the University of South Australia, the workshop will involve representatives from approximately 42 universities worldwide and international student participation. The meeting will bring together scientists that are international leaders in measuring and analyzing surface forces and interfacial phenomena to provide a substantive training experience for students, postdoctoral researchers and investigators who are at early stages in their career. It will feature a discussion of critical issues facing colloid and interface science. Students and postdoctoral researchers will present their work in poster sessions. Ultimately, the workshop aims to foster collaborations at multiple levels (interdisciplinary and internationally) to attack complex problems that connect the nanoscale world to the macroscopic world. The Office of International Science and Engineering and the Directorates of Engineering and Mathematical and Physical Sciences are sharing in the funding of this activity.

该奖项将用于支持将于2006年1月左右在墨西哥坎昆举行的关于纳米力和界面现象的研讨会。研讨会由南佛罗里达大学的Norma Alcantar博士和加州大学圣巴巴拉分校的Phillip A Pincus博士以及国际合作伙伴墨西哥伊斯塔帕拉帕市大都市自治大学的Tomas Viveros博士、蒙特利尔大学的Suzanne Giasson博士和南澳大利亚大学的Roger Horn博士共同组织，将有来自全球约42所大学的代表和国际学生参加。会议将汇集在测量和分析表面力和界面现象方面的国际领先科学家，为学生、博士后研究人员和处于职业生涯早期阶段的研究人员提供实质性的培训经验。它将重点讨论胶体和界面科学面临的关键问题。学生和博士后研究人员将在海报会议上展示他们的工作。最终，研讨会旨在促进多层次（跨学科和国际）的合作，以解决连接纳米世界和宏观世界的复杂问题。国际科学和工程办公室以及工程和数学及物理科学理事会分担这项活动的经费。
