Abstract 0856278Duran, Randolph S.This Americas Program award, with co-funding from the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Division of Chemistry, will provide support for a two-day workshop on functional and nanomaterials at the Brazilian State University of Campinas (UNICAMP), in August 2009. The organizers of the workshop are: Miguel Garcia-Garibay (UCLA) Randy Duran (Univ. Florida, UF) James Brown (Morehouse College), Ronaldo Pilli (UNICAMP) and Jose Riveros (Univ. Sao Paulo, USP). Scientists from the US and Brazil will discuss emerging aspects of their research. Participants will include students and faculty from UF, UCLA, the Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority (LSAMP) Program, UNICAMP, and USP. Topics will include biomolecule patterning techniques at the nanoscale, dynamics of materials, electronic transport in materials, and light harvesting materials. A 1-day short course on nanomaterials is also planned. The main purpose for this activity is to foster joint research collaborations at the frontier of materials science and condensed phase dynamics. The proposed 2008 workshop and the corresponding short course will attempt to develop an integrated viewpoint of structures and functions necessary to understand and design a new generation of complex materials. A perspective on materials dynamics also allows for a seamless collaboration between experimentalists and theorists with a broad range of expertise and interests. A key goal is to identify collaborative projects involving undergraduate and graduate students and researchers from both countries.

摘要0856278杜兰，兰多夫S.这个美洲计划奖，与化学的数学和物理科学司共同资助，将提供支持，为期两天的研讨会上的功能和纳米材料在巴西坎皮纳斯州立大学（UNICAMP），在2009年8月。 讲习班的组织者是：Miguel Garcia-Garibay（加州大学洛杉矶分校）、Randy Duran（佛罗里达大学佛罗里达大学）、James Brown（莫尔豪斯学院）、Ronaldo Pilli（大学城大学）和Jose Riveros（圣保罗大学圣保罗）。 来自美国和巴西的科学家将讨论他们研究的新方面。 与会者将包括学生和教师从UF，加州大学洛杉矶分校，少数民族（LSAMP）计划，UNICAMP和USP的路易斯·斯托克斯联盟。 主题将包括生物分子图案化技术在纳米尺度，材料的动力学，电子传输材料和光捕获材料。还计划举办为期一天的纳米材料短期课程。 该活动的主要目的是促进材料科学和凝聚相动力学前沿的联合研究合作。 拟议的2008年讲习班和相应的短期课程将试图发展理解和设计新一代复杂材料所需的结构和功能的综合观点。对材料动力学的观点也允许实验学家和理论家之间的无缝合作，具有广泛的专业知识和兴趣。一个关键目标是确定涉及两国本科生和研究生以及研究人员的合作项目。
