This Pan-American Advanced Studies Institutes (PASI) award, jointly supported by the NSF and the Department of Energy (DOE), will take place early May 2008 in the Tambopata National Reserve, Peru. Organized by Dr. Jorge Vivanco of Colorado State University, the PASI will involve lectures, mini-symposia about new laboratory and field techniques, and brainstorming sessions to promote interactions between group leaders doing cutting-edge research in various aspects of tropical ecology, and post-doctoral scientists and advanced doctoral students from across the Americas. The PASI will disseminate recent interdisciplinary advances in ecology, plant biochemistry, evolutionary biology, genomics and chemical ecology.This PASI aims to educate a corps of young biologists from all over the Americas with the cutting-edge tools they need to prosper in their field, as well as to help them establish fruitful collaborations with other Western-Hemisphere biologists. Ultimately, it will expose participants to the complexity of the rainforest and the potential chemical and microbial dimensions of biodiversity, through modern techniques that can be used to analyze field studies at the molecular level.

这项由国家科学基金会和能源部共同支持的泛美高级研究所奖将于2008年5月初在秘鲁的坦博帕塔国家保护区举行。 由科罗拉多州立大学的Jorge Vivanco博士组织的PASI将包括讲座，关于新实验室和现场技术的小型研讨会，以及头脑风暴会议，以促进在热带生态学各个方面进行前沿研究的小组领导人与来自美洲各地的博士后科学家和高级博士生之间的互动。 PASI将传播生态学、植物生物化学、进化生物学、基因组学和化学生态学的最新跨学科进展，旨在为来自美洲各地的年轻生物学家提供他们在各自领域蓬勃发展所需的尖端工具，并帮助他们与其他西半球生物学家建立富有成效的合作关系。最终，它将通过可用于在分子水平上分析实地研究的现代技术，使参与者了解雨林的复杂性以及生物多样性的潜在化学和微生物方面。
