CBET-0828158ConnerIntellectual Merit The International Congress on Catalysis, ICC, in the most largely attended meeting of the international catalytic community. All the developments both practical and new understand in catalysis over the last four years will be presented at this meeting. This is also the best place to discuss ongoing or international collaborations within the catalytic community, both industrial and academic. Participation by US scientists is crucial to our visibility in this area that impacts over a quarter of the US economy. Broader Impacts A major focus of this ICC meeting is on renewable, sustainable energy sources made by catalytic means. Many foreign laboratories have pioneered in these efforts and will be present and presenting their studies at this meeting. Several workshops and symposia for faculty or students are being held in conjunction (before or after) the ICC. This grant will enable US participation in these. One of the primary purposes is to provide support for junior faculty to participate in this ICC, as well as to support women and underrepresented minority candidates. This is an ideal opportunity for these groups to establish international collaborations as well as to understand the cutting edge of catalytic science and engineering.

CBET-0828158 ConnerIntellectual Merit国际催化大会，ICC，是国际催化界最受欢迎的会议。在过去的四年里，催化领域的所有发展，无论是实际的还是新的理解，都将在这次会议上发表。这也是讨论催化社区内正在进行的或国际合作的最佳场所，包括工业和学术。美国科学家的参与对于我们在这一影响超过四分之一美国经济的领域的知名度至关重要。更广泛的影响这次国际商会会议的一个主要重点是通过催化手段制造的可再生、可持续能源。许多外国实验室在这方面的努力中处于领先地位，并将出席这次会议并介绍他们的研究。在国际商会之前或之后，为教师或学生举办了几个讲习班和专题讨论会。这笔赠款将使美国能够参与这些活动。主要目的之一是为初级教师提供支持，以参加这一国际刑事法院，以及支持妇女和代表性不足的少数民族候选人。这是一个理想的机会，这些团体建立国际合作，以及了解催化科学和工程的前沿。
