Intellectual Merit: The workshop, entitled "Innovation in Biological Research and Education in the Molecular and Cellular Biosciences (MCB)", will take place in Arlington, Virginia on June 17-19, 2010. There will be approximately 50 participants representing recent CAREER Principal Investigators (PIs), NSF PIs with excellent K-12 outreach and PIs with Research Initiation Grant (RIG) awards. The workshop will include three keynote presentations, two by former CAREER PIs, and one by an expert in science education. The remainder of the meeting will involve an information session about NSF funding opportunities, poster sessions for participants to present their research and outreach, and working discussions both of the leading edge in MCB research and of opportunities for integration of research and education. The workshop will introduce MCB division staff to a community of the division's PIs; increase participants understanding of the NSF; promote scientific exchange across MCB disciplines; increase participants understanding of ties between broader impacts and education; and identify successful ways to integrate research and education. MCB Program Officers will have the opportunity to get to know the MCB PI community better; benefit from increased discussion of science in the Division; better understand obstacles and potential solutions for PI success in research and education; be able to recruit future panelists and reviewers as well as identify potential rotators; and get ideas about the leading edge in science from the perspective of MCB PIs.Broader Impacts: Participants will have an increased understanding of: the Foundation and how it functions; opportunities, including funding, at the Foundation available to them; effective ways of integrating research and education; opportunities for collaboration with other participating principal investigators; and potential new directions their research might take. Program Officers will have an increased understanding of the outcomes of the research and education activities that have been funded by the Division as well as increased understanding of the challenges that often confront young investigators and of ways to help the Principal Investigators address those barriers. A report on the workshop and outcomes will be produced and distributed to the participants and made available throughout the NSF and to a wider audience via the internet.

智力优势：研讨会，题为“创新的生物研究和教育的分子和细胞生物科学（MCB）"，将在阿灵顿，弗吉尼亚州于2010年6月17日至19日举行。将有大约50名参与者代表最近的职业生涯主要研究者（PI），NSF PI与优秀的K-12外展和PI与研究启动补助金（RIG）奖。研讨会将包括三个主题演讲，两个由前职业PI，一个由科学教育专家。会议的其余部分将涉及有关NSF资助机会的信息会议，与会者展示其研究和推广的海报会议，以及MCB研究前沿和研究与教育整合机会的工作讨论。该研讨会将向MCB部门的工作人员介绍该部门的PI社区;增加参与者对NSF的了解;促进MCB学科之间的科学交流;增加参与者对更广泛的影响与教育之间关系的理解;并确定整合研究和教育的成功方法。MCB计划官员将有机会更好地了解MCB PI社区;从该部门增加的科学讨论中受益;更好地了解PI在研究和教育中取得成功的障碍和潜在解决方案;能够招募未来的小组成员和评审员以及确定潜在的轮换人员;并从MCB PI的角度了解科学前沿。与会者将进一步了解：基金会及其运作方式;基金会向他们提供的机会，包括资金;将研究与教育相结合的有效方法;与其他参与的主要调查人员合作的机会;以及他们的研究可能采取的潜在新方向。项目官员将对该司资助的研究和教育活动的成果有更多的了解，并对年轻研究人员经常面临的挑战以及帮助主要研究人员解决这些障碍的方法有更多的了解。将编写一份关于讲习班和成果的报告，分发给与会者，并在整个国家科学基金会和通过互联网向更广泛的受众提供。
