CBET 1134944University of California-BerkeleyHerrTravel funds are requested to partially support new and junior researchers to attend the 15th International Conference on Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences (microTAS) held from October 2nd through 6th, 2011 in Seattle, WA USA.The international meeting will involve participants from all research sectors including academia, industry, and the US federal government. This conference is considered a unique forum for exchange of ideas and offers ample opportunities for the exchange of new ideas, presentation and discussion f breaking results, and opportunities for new interdisciplinary collaborations among attendees. The MicroTAS conference provides a unique intellectual experience in which scientific researchers from different disciplines come together in a dynamic international forum to discuss research and forge partnerships that are critical to the health and growth of our highly multidisciplinary field. The conference includes extended time for discussions where scientific researchers, both junior and senior, from many disciplines can share and develop new ideas in an open and collegial environment. We are also encouraging informal interactions (e.g., lunches) to foment new technical collaborations and international partnerships.The goals and broader impacts of the 2011 microTAS Conference include:(1) To further the understanding of the science that underpins the development of microfluidic and nanofluidic technologies;(2) To provide an opportunity for junior researchers to interact closely with more established scientific researchers to broaden their scientific education and to promote their future careers as scientific researchers;(3) To foster and promote long-term relationships between researchers in diverse fields including bioengineering, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, chemistry (including separation science and analytical chemistry), and physics; and(4) To promote the development of multidisciplinary teams that can address difficult problems in biological and the physical sciences using micro- and nano-technologies.NSF support is being requested to offset conference fees and/or travel costs for graduate students, post-docs, and other junior academic researchers. It is anticipatedthat with increased financial support, the fifteenth conference in this series will be successful in promoting advances in the scientific understanding and application of microfluidic technologies, and in educating the next cadre of world-class innovators.

CBET 1134944加州大学伯克利分校HerrTravel基金被要求部分支持新的和初级研究人员参加第15届国际会议小型化系统的化学和生命科学（microTAS）于2011年10月2日至6日在西雅图，美国华盛顿州举行。国际会议将涉及所有研究部门的参与者，包括学术界，工业界和美国联邦政府。本次会议被认为是一个独特的思想交流论坛，为新思想的交流，展示和讨论突破性成果以及与会者之间新的跨学科合作提供了充分的机会。MicroTAS会议提供了一个独特的智力体验，来自不同学科的科学研究人员聚集在一个充满活力的国际论坛上，讨论研究并建立对我们高度多学科领域的健康和发展至关重要的伙伴关系。 会议包括延长时间进行讨论，来自许多学科的初级和高级科学研究人员可以在开放和大学环境中分享和发展新的想法。我们还鼓励非正式的互动（例如，午餐），以促进新的技术合作和国际合作伙伴关系。2011年microTAS会议的目标和更广泛的影响包括：（1）进一步了解微流体和纳米流体技术发展的基础科学;（2）为初级研究人员提供与更成熟的科学研究人员密切互动的机会，以拓宽他们的科学教育并促进他们未来作为科学研究人员的职业生涯;（3）培养和促进生物工程、化学工程、机械工程、电气工程、化学等不同领域的研究人员之间的长期关系（包括分离科学和分析化学）和物理学;以及（4）促进多学科团队的发展，这些团队可以利用微纳米技术解决生物和物理科学中的难题。技术。正在请求NSF支持以抵消研究生、博士后和其他初级学术研究人员的会议费和/或差旅费。预计随着财政支持的增加，该系列的第十五次会议将成功地促进微流体技术的科学理解和应用的进步，并培养下一批世界级创新者。
