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）举办的一系列国家和国际工程前沿（FOE）专题讨论会：德美工程前沿（4月23日至25日在田纳西州诺克斯维尔举行），美国工程前沿（9月23日至25日在纽约阿蒙克举行）和欧盟-美国工程前沿（2010年秋末，地点待定）。每次专题讨论会着重于四个主题领域。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、移动和运输、安全和安保技术以及能源/环境。每次研讨会都有60到100名杰出的、处于职业生涯初期的科学家和工程师参加。会议由演讲者介绍前沿研究、新兴技术以及跨科学和工程领域合作的机会。该研讨会促进了跨学科和国际合作，并作为美国许多新兴研究和创新前沿的参考点。美国FOE研讨会的报告将发布在NAE FOE网站上。

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.
