Giorgio CartaInternational Travel: 9th International Conference on Fundamentals of Adsorption, FOA9CTS - 0648823This is an NSF travel grant that supports students, post doctoral fellows and faculty from US academic and nonprofit research institutions to attend the 9th International Conference on Fundamentals of Adsorption Science FAO9 to be held in Giardini Naxos in Sicily, Italy. The FOA conferences were established in 1983 in order to promote international scientific collaborations among adsorption scientists and engineers and the continued advancement of adsorption science and technology. The primary goal and hence intellectual merit of the 9th International Conference on Fundamentals of Adsorption is to allow scientists and engineers from all over the World to present their most recent research efforts in the area of Adsorption Science and Technology and to outline further developments in this area. The conference will allow US participants from academia and industry to interact with their international counterparts and especially to enhance and/or establish international collaborations and scientific exchange with adsorption researchers. The conference will cover a wide variety of adsorption related areas from fundamentals to applications in new and emerging fields including biotechnology, alternative energy, and environmental protection and remediation. The conference will consist of plenary sessions, oral sessions and poster sessions. To set the stage for the conference, plenary speakers will present in depth overviews of key research areas covering fundamentals, materials, molecular modeling, and processes. The conference will last for five and one half days, and host approximately 400 participants from around the world.Only tenure-track faculty members and their graduate students in US educational institutions and researchers in US nonprofit research institutions who will have an oral orposter presentation at the meeting will be eligible to apply for this NSF support. Prioritywill be given to young faculty (who have been in academia for no more than 5 years) andyounger doctoral students who are at least one year away from graduation, with eachapplicant receiving a minimum of $400 up to a maximum of $800. We anticipate makingup to ten $500 awards to young faculty and up to five $600 awards to doctoral students,Any remaining funds will be used to make $400 travel awards to other conferenceparticipants on a need basis. Eligible attendees will be asked to send an application within45 days after the conference to the PI including a letter, co-signed by the Chairperson (orequivalent), requesting partial reimbursement of travel expenses and stating theireligibility for refund under the NSF regulations and according to the above eligibilitycriteria, an airline ticket receipt, and original boarding passes. The allowance for airtravel will not exceed the cost of a round-trip, economy airfare ticket; and eligibleparticipants from the US will also be informed that they must travel by US-flag carriers,if available. The attendees will be reimbursed within 90 days after the conference.The broader impacts of FOA9 are mainly associated with the potential technologicaladvances in energy, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and environmental applications madepossible by sharing new adsorption-related scientific information at the highest level.Additional broader impacts will be associated with the participation of young faculty anddoctoral students facilitated by the proposed travel funds, and their exposure to thefrontiers of adsorption science and technology in a truly interdisciplinary andinternational scientific gathering.

Giorgio Carta国际旅行社：第九届国际会议吸附的基础，FOA 9 CTS-0648823这是一个NSF旅行补助金，支持学生，博士后研究员和教师从美国学术和非营利研究机构参加第九届国际会议吸附科学的基础FAO 9将在贾迪尼纳克索斯在西西里，意大利举行。FOA会议成立于1983年，旨在促进吸附科学家和工程师之间的国际科学合作以及吸附科学和技术的持续发展。第九届国际吸附基础会议的主要目标和智力价值是让来自世界各地的科学家和工程师展示他们在吸附科学和技术领域的最新研究成果，并概述该领域的进一步发展。会议将允许来自学术界和工业界的美国参与者与国际同行进行互动，特别是加强和/或建立与吸附研究人员的国际合作和科学交流。会议将涵盖各种各样的吸附相关领域，从基础知识到新兴领域的应用，包括生物技术，替代能源，环境保护和修复。会议将包括全体会议、口头会议和海报会议。为了为会议做好准备，全体演讲者将深入介绍关键研究领域，包括基础知识，材料，分子建模和工艺。本次会议将持续五天半，将接待来自世界各地的约400名与会者，只有美国教育机构的终身教职员工及其研究生和美国非营利研究机构的研究人员将在会议上进行口头或海报演讲，才有资格申请NSF的支持。优先考虑年轻教师（在学术界工作不超过5年）和离毕业至少一年的年轻博士生，每个申请人最低可获得400美元，最高可获得800美元。我们预计makingup十$500奖励年轻的教师和高达五$600奖励博士生，任何剩余的资金将用于使$400旅行奖励其他conferenceparticipants在需要的基础上。符合条件的与会者将被要求在会议结束后45天内向PI发送一份申请，包括一封由主席（或同等）共同签署的信函，要求报销部分差旅费，并说明他们根据NSF法规和上述死亡标准要求退款的宗教信仰，机票收据和原始登机牌。飞机旅行津贴将不超过往返经济机票的费用;来自美国的临时与会者还将被告知，他们必须乘坐悬挂美国国旗的航空公司（如果有的话）。与会者将在会议结束后90天内报销。FOA 9的更广泛影响主要与能源、生物技术、制药和环境应用方面的潜在技术进步有关，这些技术进步是通过在最高级别分享与吸附相关的新科学信息而实现的。其他更广泛的影响将与拟议的旅行基金促进的年轻教师和博士生的参与有关，以及他们在真正的跨学科和国际科学聚会中接触吸附科学和技术的前沿。
