Technical. An international symposium on functional pi-electron systems (F-pi-9) will be held at the Georgia Institute of Technology, May 23-28, 2010. The goal of the symposium is to provide a forum that attracts a diverse audience to learn about state-of-the-art research in the area of functional pi-electron systems. The idea is to promote discussions of broad applications of functional pi-electron systems covering fundamental aspects of chemistry, physics, and materials research, and to provide exposure to technology drivers and biologically important systems that are often neglected at more specialized conferences on displays, organic photovoltaics, and nonlinear optics. Non-technical. An important impact of this conference will be to increase the attendance of scientists and students from underrepresented groups. Strong efforts will be made to improve the inclusion of women and minorities in fields related to chemistry, physics and materials science of electronic and photonic materials. Along with the opportunity to assess the field and future directions, it is expected that new ties will be established among universities, research institutions, and industry. The requested NSF funds will be used to support the registration of women and under-represented minority researchers or faculty members who are professors at a minority serving institution and who will bring minority students with them to the conference. The symposium is co-supported by the MPS Divisions of Chemistry [MSN (Macromolecular/Supramolecular/Nanochemistry) Program] and Materials Research [EPM (Electronic and Photonic Materials) Program].

技术.关于功能π电子系统（F-pi-9）的国际研讨会将于2010年5月23日至28日在格鲁吉亚理工学院举行。研讨会的目标是提供一个论坛，吸引不同的观众了解国家的最先进的研究领域的功能π电子系统。我们的想法是促进功能π电子系统的广泛应用的讨论，涵盖化学，物理学和材料研究的基本方面，并提供曝光的技术驱动程序和生物重要的系统，往往被忽视在更专业的会议上显示，有机photopolics和非线性光学。非技术性的。这次会议的一个重要影响将是增加代表性不足群体的科学家和学生的出席率。将大力促进妇女和少数民族参与与化学、物理和电子及光子材料材料相关的材料科学领域。沿着评估该领域和未来方向的机会，预计将在大学、研究机构和工业界之间建立新的联系。所要求的NSF资金将用于支持妇女和代表性不足的少数民族研究人员或教师的登记，他们是少数民族服务机构的教授，并将带着少数民族学生参加会议。该研讨会由MPS化学部门[MSN（高分子/超分子/纳米化学）计划]和材料研究[ESTA（电子和光子材料）计划]共同支持。
