Astronomy is a fully international endeavor. To participate in the international scientific community, American researchers must meet and collaborate with researchers from around the world, and to do this they must attend international scientific meetings. These meetings provide a forum for interacting with other researchers, forming collaborations, presenting new results and participating in the international scientific community.This award will provide support for US astronomers, postdocs, and students to participate in international professional meetings. The award will cover three years of travel grants, including a large number of grants (approximately 120) that will support travel to the IAU General Assembly which will be held in Beijing, China in 2012. This award will be especially important to early-career researchers and those from less-endowed institutions as it will help give them the opportunity to actively participate in these important meetings.

天文学是一项完全国际性的奋进。为了参与国际科学界，美国研究人员必须与来自世界各地的研究人员会面和合作，为此他们必须参加国际科学会议。这些会议提供了一个与其他研究人员互动，形成合作，展示新成果和参与国际科学界的论坛。该奖项将为美国天文学家，博士后和学生参加国际专业会议提供支持。该奖项将涵盖三年的旅费赠款，其中包括大量赠款（约120笔），将用于资助将于2012年在中国北京举行的国际天文学联盟大会的旅费。该奖项对早期职业研究人员和来自捐赠较少机构的研究人员尤为重要，因为它将帮助他们有机会积极参与这些重要会议。
