This is an international travel grant to help cover the costs of students, postdoctoral researchers and other young investigators to attend the Halophiles-2007: 7th International Congress Exploring Life at High Salinity, 2-6 September 2007, University of Essex, Colchester, UK.The Halophiles 2007 meeting is a multidisciplinary international congress, with a strong history of regular triennial meetings since 1978. While focusing on halophilic organisms from all three domains of life and viruses, the conference also addresses commonalities between high salinity and other conditions in which water activity is reduced (e.g. desiccation, freezing, high organic solute concentration). The overarching aim for this meeting is to draw on expertise from numerous disciplines in order to enable advances in our understanding of life in high-salt environments, and in turn for the improved understanding to enhance other areas of science.In particular, this meeting is aimed at young scientists: A number of Assistant Professors have been added as invited speakers and will be given free passage and an opportunity to present. To this end, the organizers will increase the participation of US undergraduate students, graduate students, and post-doctoral researchers by offering them travel grants to defray the cost of their expenses. The application process will be aimed at members of underrepresented groups

这是一项国际旅费补助金，用于帮助支付学生、博士后研究人员和其他年轻研究人员参加 Halophiles-2007：第七届探索高盐度生命国际大会（2007 年 9 月 2-6 日，英国科尔切斯特埃塞克斯大学）的费用。2007 年 Halophiles 会议是一次多学科国际大会，自 1978 年以来拥有定期三年一次会议的悠久历史。的所有三个域 除了生命和病毒之外，会议还讨论了高盐度和水活度降低的其他条件（例如干燥、冷冻、有机溶质浓度高）之间的共性。本次会议的总体目标是借鉴众多学科的专业知识，以促进我们对高盐环境中生命的理解，进而提高对其他科学领域的理解。本次会议特别针对年轻科学家：一些助理教授已被添加为受邀演讲者，并将获得自由通行权和发言机会。为此，主办方将通过向美国本科生、研究生和博士后研究人员提供旅费补助来增加他们的费用，以增加他们的参与。 申请流程将针对代表性不足的群体的成员
