2010 Frontiers of Engineering Symposia (U.S., German-American, and EU-US)

该奖项部分支持由美国国家工程院（NAE）举办的一系列三个国家和国际工程前沿（FOE）研讨会：德美工程前沿（4月23日至25日，田纳西州诺克斯维尔），美国工程前沿（9月23日至25日，阿尔蒙克，纽约）和欧盟-美国工程前沿（2010年秋季末，地点待定）。 每个专题讨论会侧重于四个专题领域。 2010年的主题包括云计算、生物传感和生物驱动、工程和音乐、自主空间系统、快速疫苗制造、汽车新概念、激光、现代电力系统电网控制、合成生物学、移动性和运输、安全和安保技术以及能源/环境。每次研讨会都有60至100名杰出的早期职业科学家和工程师参加。 会议包括演讲者关于前沿研究，新兴技术以及跨科学和工程领域合作机会的演讲。 研讨会促进跨学科和国际合作，并作为美国研究和创新的许多新兴前沿的参考点。

This award partially supports a series of three national and international Frontiers of Engineering (FOE) Symposia by the National Academy of Engineering (NAE): German-American Frontiers of Engineering (April 23-25 in Knoxville, Tennessee), U.S. Frontiers of Engineering (September 23-25 in Armonk, New York), and EU-US Frontiers of Engineering (late fall 2010, location TBD). Each symposium focuses on four topical areas. Topics for 2010 include cloud computing, biosensing and bioactuation, engineering and music, autonomous space systems, rapid vaccine manufacturing, novel concepts for automobiles, lasers, modern power system grid control, synthetic biology, mobility and transport, technologies for safety and security, and energy/environment. Between 60 and 100 outstanding, early-career scientists and engineers participate in each symposium. Sessions consist of presentations by speakers on leading edge research, emerging technologies, and opportunities for collaboration across science and engineering fields. The symposia foster interdisciplinary and international collaborations and serve as a reference point for many of the emerging frontiers in research and innovation in the U.S. Presentations from the U.S. FOE seminar will be posted on the NAE FOE web site.
