Student Travel Support for the 2006 North American Membrane Society Meeting

标题：2006年北美膜学会会议(NAMS 2006)的学生旅费补助金的目的是为研究生和博士后研究员提供津贴，让他们在2006年6月举行的第17届北美膜学会年会上发表他们的研究成果。NAMS是美国最大的聚焦于这一主题的会议。会议将有22个技术会议，涵盖前沿的基础和应用膜科学和技术。会议将有3场全体讲座和22场主题讲座，将该领域的最新发展带到这次会议上。为这次会议制定了广泛的学生计划，包括青年膜科学家论坛、与传奇共进晚餐和学生海报竞赛。就在会议开始之前，将举办四个技术讲习班。这些研讨会是学生学习关键领域的基础知识和高级研究课题的绝佳场所，这些领域包括：膜的测量方法；聚合物和无机膜材料与膜形成；气体分离；以及制药过程中的膜。来自世界各地代表工业、政府和学术机构的大约400名膜研究人员将参加会议。这次会议是致力于膜科学和技术领域的美国研究人员的主要科学会议。这次会议已经通过电子征文和一系列传单在全球范围内公布。此次会议还刊登在《膜科学杂志》、《北美膜学会膜季刊》以及欧洲、日本和韩国同行的广告上。有关这次会议的信息发布在互联网上，网址是：www.mames.org。就更广泛的影响而言，这项支持将允许学生参加全国会议。许多学生和资深研究人员在海报中展示他们的工作，这次会议不那么正式的气氛通常会刺激学生和该领域的领导人之间进行有意义的讨论。

Title: Student Travel Support for the 2006 North American Memebrane Society Meeting (NAMS 2006)The objective of this travel grant is to provide stipends for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to present their research at the 17th Annual Meeting of the North American Membrane Society in June 2006. NAMS is the largest American meeting focused on this subject. The meeting will have 22 technical sessions covering the spectrum of leading-edge fundamental and applied membrane science and technology. The meeting will feature 3 plenary lectures and 22 keynote lectures to bring the latest developments in the field to this meeting. An extensive student program has been developed for the meeting, including the Young Membrane Scientist Forum, Dining with the Legends, and a student poster competition. Four technical workshops will beoffered just prior to the beginning of the meeting. These workshops are excellent venues for students to learn about fundamentals and advanced research topics in key areas such as: Measurement Methods for Membranes; Polymeric and Inorganic Membrane Materials and Membrane Formation; Gas Separation; and Membranes for Pharmaceutical Processing. Approximately 400 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. The meeting has been announced worldwide through an electronic Call for Papers and a series of fliers. The meeting is also being advertised in the Journal of Membrane Science, the North American Membrane Society Membrane Quarterly, and their European, Japanese, and Korean counterparts. Information about the meeting is posted on the internet at www.membranes.org. In terms of broader impacts, the support will permit students to participate in a national meeting. Many students and 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.
