Support for the 2005 North American Membrane Society Meeting

摘要项目名称：2005北美膜学会年会资助项目编号：cts -0517537项目负责人：John pellegrino研究机构：科罗拉多大学本项目旨在资助研究生和博士后在2005年6月召开的第16届北美膜学会（NAMS）年会上发表研究成果。会议将举行24场技术会议，涵盖前沿的基础和应用膜科学与技术。会议将举行两次全体会议和20次主题演讲，为会议带来该领域的最新发展。此外，在会议开始之前将举办四个技术讲习班。这些研讨会是向领先的学术和工业实践者学习膜科学关键领域的基础知识和先进研究课题的有效途径。来自世界各地代表工业、政府和学术机构的膜研究人员将参加。这次会议是美国研究人员在膜科学和技术领域工作的主要科学会议。此外，今年的会议将恢复之前关于大学-工业互动的特别会议。这个场地为研究人员和实践者之间就当前膜科学技术的优势和劣势进行对话提供了机会。这次会议已经通过一系列传单在世界范围内宣布，并在《膜科学杂志》、北美膜学会的《膜季刊》以及他们的欧洲、日本和韩国同行上做了广告。有关会议的信息也可在互联网上查阅：www.membranes.org。就更广泛的影响而言，这项支持将允许学生参加全国性会议。许多学生和资深研究人员在海报上展示他们的工作，这个会议不那么正式的气氛通常会激发学生和领域领导者之间有意义的讨论。

AbstractProposal Title: Support for the 2005 North American Membrane Society MeetingProposal Number: CTS-0517537Principal Investigator: John PellegrinoInstitution: University of ColoradoThe objective of this travel grant is to provide stipends for graduate students andpostdoctoral fellows to present their research at the 16th Annual Meeting of the North American Membrane Society (NAMS) in June 2005. The meeting will have 24 technical sessions covering the spectrum of leading-edge fundamental and applied membrane science and technology. The meeting will feature two plenary lectures and 20 keynote lectures to bring the latest developments in the field to this meeting. Additionally, four technical workshops will be offered just prior to the beginning of the meeting. These workshops are effective avenues to learn about fundamentals and advanced research topics in key areas of membrane science from leading academic and industrial practitioners. Membrane researchers from all parts of the world representing industry, government and academic facilities will participate. This meeting is the principal scientific meeting for American researchers working in the area of membrane science and technology. In addition, this year's meeting will reinstate a previous special session on University-Industrial Interactions. This venue provides the opportunity for a dialog on the strengths and weaknesses of current membrane science and technology between researchers and practitioners. The meeting has been announced worldwide through a series of fliers, and it is being advertised in the Journal of Membrane Science, the North American Membrane Society's Membrane Quarterly, and their European, Japanese, and Korean counterparts. Information about the meeting is also available on the Internet at www.membranes.org. In terms of the broader impacts, the support will permit students to participate in a national meeting. Many students as well as senior researchers present their work in posters, and the less formal atmosphere of this session typically stimulates meaningful discussions between students and leaders in the field.
