International Ornithological Congresses (IOC) have been held at regular intervals since 1884. The XXVth IOC will be held in Campos de Jordão, SP, Brazil, in August, 2010 and is the first IOC to be held in South America. This Congress will allow US scientists to interact with scientists from around the world and they will also encounter habitats and people that have been largely inaccessible. The financial assistance provided to scientists by the National Science Foundation will make it possible for some to attend who might not otherwise have been able to afford travel to Brazil. A committee of five ornithologists will evaluate applications for funds from scientists who are participating in the Congress. Committee members are committed to assuring that diversity will be enhanced at the IOC by selecting a diverse group of scientists with respect to gender, career stage, and membership in groups underrepresented in science and engineering. At the Congress information will be exchanged in plenary lectures, symposia, contributed oral presentations, poster sessions, round table discussions, and innumerable informal conversations and it is anticipated that many cooperative, international projects will be initiated. Examples of topics to be represented in the above mentioned forums are: population biology, social behavior, communication (aural and visual), reproductive biology, avian evolution, pedagogy, physiology, avian conservation biology, promotion of ornithology in developing countries, public policy, avian diseases, systematics, palenotology, migration, genomics, and flight biology.

国际鸟类学大会（IOC）自1884年以来定期举行。第二十五届国际奥委会将于2010年8月在巴西圣保罗州坎波斯-德-若尔当举行，这是第一届在南美洲举行的国际奥委会。这次大会将允许美国科学家与来自世界各地的科学家互动，他们也将遇到栖息地和人们在很大程度上无法进入。国家科学基金会向科学家提供的财政援助将使一些本来无法负担前往巴西的旅费的科学家能够参加会议。一个由五名鸟类学家组成的委员会将评估参加大会的科学家的资金申请。委员会成员致力于确保通过从性别、职业阶段以及科学和工程领域代表性不足的群体中选择多样化的科学家群体来加强国际奥委会的多样性。在大会上，将通过全体演讲、专题讨论会、口头发言、海报展示、圆桌讨论和无数非正式对话交流信息，预计将启动许多合作性国际项目。上述论坛的主题包括：种群生物学、社会行为、交流（听觉和视觉）、生殖生物学、鸟类进化、教育学、生理学、鸟类保护生物学、发展中国家鸟类学的推广、公共政策、鸟类疾病、系统分类学、古鸟类学、迁徙、基因组学和飞行生物学。
