Intellectual Merit: The NACS meeting is the prestigious meeting for the catalysis community outside of the International Congress on Catalysis. The NACS meeting is held each 2 years and is organized in turn by each of the Local US Catalysis Societies. The 20th NACS meeting is being held in Detroit, MI. The meeting topics typically cover many aspects of catalysis utilizing both oral and poster presentations. Attendees can be immersed in various areas of catalysis, whether they are currently working in the area or wish to gain an understanding of catalysis work in a completely different arena. Some participants come from outside the US, thereby allowing initial contact with the global catalysis community. Prof. Suljo Linic from the University of Michigan is the chairman of the Kokes Award Committee which seeks funds to partially offset the costs for graduate students to participate in the NACS meeting. The support of graduate student attendees is an excellent way to allow them to begin the understanding of the diversity of work in the catalysis field. Broader Impacts: The entire meeting is an educational event for those workers in the field. This award would enable partial support of more than 100 graduate students to attend the meeting. Many will be giving poster or even oral presentations. There will be ample contact with existing and new colleagues in catalysis. The work presented is current research at academic, industrial and national laboratories. The support of graduate student attendance has been a customary and well-placed investment from the Catalysis & Biocatalysis Program of CBET/ENG in NSF.

学术价值：NACS会议是国际催化大会之外的催化界享有盛誉的会议。NACS会议每两年举行一次，由美国当地的催化协会轮流组织。第20届NACS会议正在底特律举行。会议主题通常涵盖了利用口头和海报介绍催化的许多方面。与会者可以沉浸在催化的各个领域，无论他们是目前在该地区工作，或希望获得在一个完全不同的竞技场催化工作的理解。一些参与者来自美国以外的地区，因此可以与全球催化社区进行初步接触。来自密歇根大学的Suljo Linic教授是Kokes奖委员会的主席，该委员会寻求资金以部分抵消研究生参加NACS会议的费用。研究生与会者的支持是一个很好的方式，让他们开始在催化领域的工作的多样性的理解。更广泛的影响：整个会议是一个教育活动，为这些工人在外地。该奖项将使100多名研究生能够部分支持出席会议。许多人将提供海报，甚至口头报告。将与催化领域的现有和新同事进行充分的接触。所介绍的工作是目前在学术，工业和国家实验室的研究。研究生出勤率的支持一直是NSF CBET/ENG催化生物催化计划的习惯和良好投资。
