This is a Conference proposal for support of an ACS Symposium on "Advances inPolymer Brushes" to be held as part of the national ACS Meeting in August 2005.This is a very active area of research, which is closely tied in to nanoscience. Brushes(i.e. closely spaced polymer molecules tethered on surfaces) are of great interest forapplications in microfluidics, tailoring of surface properties, and even as "chemicalgates". The PI is one of the world's leaders in that area, and the list of invited speakersis really a "who's who" of top practitioners in the field.This list of speakers also has very good diversity in terms of people, institutions, topicalareas, and international presence. US participants will undoubtedly benefit greatly fromthis Symposium. Funds are requested specifically to defray costs of participants in theearly stages of their careers or new to the field of polymer brushes.Therefore, the Polymers Program is convinced that this would be a very beneficialopportunity in terms of both intellectual merit and broader impacts. We recommendfunding the $3000 requested.

这是一个支持ACS研讨会的会议提案，该研讨会将于2005年8月作为国家ACS会议的一部分举行。这是一个非常活跃的研究领域，与纳米科学密切相关。刷（即紧密间隔的聚合物分子拴在表面上）在微流体、表面性质的定制、甚至作为“化学门”的应用中具有极大的兴趣。PI是该领域的世界领导者之一，受邀演讲者名单实际上是该领域顶级从业者的“名人录”。这份演讲者名单在人员、机构、主题领域和国际影响力方面也具有很好的多样性。毫无疑问，美国与会者将从这次研讨会中受益匪浅。资金是专门用于支付参与者在职业生涯的早期阶段或新的聚合物刷领域的费用。因此，聚合物计划相信，这将是一个非常重要的机会，无论是在智力价值和更广泛的影响。我们同意提供所需的3000美元。
