ID: MPS/DMR/BMAT(7623) 0737634 PI: Pachavis, Robert ORG: Materials Research SocietyTitle: Symposium NN: Protein & Peptide Engineering for Therapeutic and Functional MaterialsINTELLECTUAL MERIT: The symposium will provide a forum for scientists and engineers who use proteins and peptides as a critical component in current and emerging technologies ranging from drug delivery to tissue engineering, molecular electronics, and nanotechnology to share ideas and results. Funding is requested specifically to enable junior faculty, postdoctorals, graduate students, and researchers from underrepresented groups to present research results in a dynamic multidisciplinary international symposium. Each of four oral sessions will feature 8-10 presentations including a keynote address plus invited and contributed papers. An evening poster session is also scheduled. A substantial group of distinguished keynote and invited speakers has already agreed to participate. During the past decade remarkable advances in protein and peptide science have led to new synthetic and discovery methodologies, new folding motifs and building block architectures, and control of peptide and protein self-assembly to create structures from the nanometer to the micrometer length scales. These advances are now poised to enable discovery and development of materials that form self-assembled hierarchical structures useful for emerging technologies in biomedicine, molecular electronics, and nanotechnology. The symposium provides a forum for international experts and beginning researchers to share recent advances.BROADER IMPACTS: The requested funding will be used exclusively to enable younger scientists, in particular, those from underrepresented groups, to participate in this interdisciplinary symposium.

ID: MPS/DMR/BMAT(7623) 0737634 PI: Pachavis, Robert ORG: 材料研究协会标题: 研讨会 NN: 治疗和功能材料的蛋白质和肽工程 学术价值: 该研讨会将为科学家和工程师提供一个论坛，他们将蛋白质和肽作为当前和新兴技术的关键组成部分，包括 药物输送到组织工程、分子电子学和纳米技术，以分享想法和结果。 特别需要资金支持初级教师、博士后、研究生和代表性不足群体的研究人员在充满活力的多学科国际研讨会上展示研究成果。 四场口头会议每场将有 8-10 场演讲，包括主题演讲以及受邀论文和投稿论文。 还安排了晚上的海报会议。 大量杰出的主旨演讲者和受邀演讲者已同意参加。 在过去的十年中，蛋白质和肽科学的显着进步带来了新的合成和发现方法、新的折叠图案和构建块结构，以及控制肽和蛋白质自组装以创建从纳米到微米长度尺度的结构。 这些进步现在有望发现和开发形成自组装分层结构的材料，这些材料可用于生物医学、分子电子学和纳米技术的新兴技术。 该研讨会为国际专家和新晋研究人员提供了一个分享最新进展的论坛。 更广泛的影响：所申请的资金将专门用于使年轻科学家，特别是来自代表性不足群体的科学家，能够参加本次跨学科研讨会。
