This award will help support the 2010 Summer Research Opportunity Program Conference at Ohio State University. The overall goal of this conference is to engage undergraduate student researchers, primarily from groups underrepresented in the sciences, in high-level scientific discussions, professional development activities, and networking activities. In order to maintain its global competitiveness, the United States must work vigorously to tap neglected pools of intellectual talent. Students from underrepresented groups are, by definition, represented in the sciences at rates smaller than their fraction of the population. The goal of programs like this is to provide young scientists from these groups with the tools that they need to become successful, productive members of the American technological workforce.

该奖项将有助于支持2010年夏季研究机会计划会议在俄亥俄州州立大学。本次会议的总体目标是吸引本科生研究人员，主要来自科学领域代表性不足的群体，参与高层次的科学讨论，专业发展活动和网络活动。 为了保持其全球竞争力，美国必须大力开发被忽视的知识人才库。 根据定义，来自代表性不足群体的学生在科学领域的代表性低于他们在人口中的比例。 像这样的项目的目标是为这些群体中的年轻科学家提供他们成为美国技术劳动力中成功、富有成效的成员所需的工具。
