Technical Merit: The technical merit of this proposal is to facilitate enhanced participation of young polymer scientists in a Gordon Conference that addresses several key areas at the frontiers of polymer science and engineering. The invited speakers are internationally known, world class experts in their respective areas of polymer physics, chemistry and engineering, as well as emerging young stars. Another criterion that is viewed as an important measure of the success of a GRC is attendance and active participation of young researchers who are diverse. For many of us, including the Chair and Co-Chair of this conference, early career attendance at GRCs provided scientific stimulation, development of professional relationships, and collaborations with other scientists that have been important in our professional development.Broader Impact: The broader impact lies in the cultivation and development of tomorrow?s leaders in the polymer field and related interdisciplinary fields and to further diversity in the scientific force performing this interdisciplinary research. In keeping with the past tradition of what was previously named the Polymers (West) GRC, the Programmatic Themes of this year?s conference cover a range of important and timely topics spanning the range from polymer synthesis to polymer physics and engineering, including industrial trends in polymer science. These programmatic themes include polymer thinfFilm mechanical properties and patterning, polyelectrolytes for DNA complexation and cellular delivery, charged polymers for biomaterials, complex micelle assembly, polymer nanoparticles and nanotechnology, and the theory of charged polymer assembly.

技术优点：该提案的技术优点是促进年轻聚合物科学家更多地参与戈登会议，该会议讨论了聚合物科学和工程前沿的几个关键领域。受邀的演讲者是国际知名的世界级专家，他们在各自的高分子物理，化学和工程领域，以及新兴的年轻明星。另一个被视为衡量GRC成功的重要标准是年轻研究人员的出席和积极参与。对于我们中的许多人，包括本次会议的主席和联合主席，早期参加GRC的职业生涯提供了科学刺激，专业关系的发展，以及与其他科学家的合作，这对我们的专业发展很重要。更广泛的影响：更广泛的影响在于培养和发展明天？我们将继续致力于聚合物领域和相关跨学科领域的领导者，并进一步促进从事这一跨学科研究的科学力量的多样性。在保持什么以前被命名为聚合物（西）GRC的过去的传统，今年的节目主题？的会议涵盖了一系列重要和及时的主题，从聚合物合成到聚合物物理和工程，包括聚合物科学的工业趋势。这些纲领性的主题包括聚合物薄膜的机械性能和图案化，用于DNA络合和细胞递送的聚电解质，用于生物材料的带电聚合物，复杂胶束组装，聚合物纳米颗粒和纳米技术，以及带电聚合物组装理论。
