The International Botanical Congress (IBC) is the largest international conference in plant biology and extends the broadest disciplinary coverage of any such conference. The IBC is held every six years and will take place in Melbourne, Australia, in 2011. This grant will support travel for graduate students, postdocs, and early career faculty (within three years of first appointment), who are presenting the results of their research, to attend the upcoming IBC. The IBC serves a critical role in international communication within and across disciplines in plant biology, as well as a valuable opportunity to establish international collaborations. Participation is particularly valuable for young scientists as they establish their careers. The opportunity to reach so many scientists within any individual discipline creates an unequaled opportunity for exposure by a young scientist. The once-in-six-years frequency of the Congresses means that for most young scientists, who are about to complete Ph.D.s, find a job, or compete for tenure in their academic institutions, there is only one opportunity to participate in an IBC during these critical stages of professional development. For the young scientists supported by these travel awards, connections made here will be career-altering and will create life-long collaborations that will enhance their development as scientists.

国际植物学大会（IBC）是植物生物学领域最大的国际会议，并扩展了任何此类会议最广泛的学科范围。 国际生物伦理委员会每六年举行一次，将于2011年在澳大利亚的墨尔本举行。 该补助金将支持研究生，博士后和早期职业教师（首次任命后三年内）的旅行，他们正在展示他们的研究成果，参加即将举行的IBC。 IBC在植物生物学学科内部和跨学科的国际交流中发挥着关键作用，也是建立国际合作的宝贵机会。 参与对青年科学家在建立自己的事业时特别有价值。 在任何一个学科中接触到如此多的科学家的机会，都为年轻科学家的曝光创造了无与伦比的机会。 国际生物伦理大会每六年举行一次，这意味着对于大多数即将完成博士学位、即将找到工作或即将在学术机构竞争终身职位的年轻科学家来说，在这些专业发展的关键阶段，只有一次机会参加国际生物伦理大会。 对于这些旅行奖励支持的年轻科学家来说，在这里建立的联系将改变职业生涯，并将创造终身合作，这将促进他们作为科学家的发展。
