PI: ZhangCBET-1152129The project will fund travel to the 3rd Micro/Nanoscale Heat & Mass Transfer International Conference at Georgia Tech Global Learning Center, Atlanta, GA, on March 3-6, 2012. The Conference is sponsored by the ASME Heat Transfer Division and Georgia Institute of Technology. The importance of nano-science and engineering has been well recognized by research communities and governmental organizations. It is believed that breakthroughs in nano-science and technology will change all aspects of the society, from energy utilization, biomedicine to homeland security. The conference is intended to provide a forum for researchers and educators around the world to exchange the state-of-the-art research and development and identify research needs in this emerging field. The conference will include keynote and invited presentations, contributed oral and poster presentations, as well as panel discussion on the current status and future opportunities. A special issue of ASME Journal of Heat Transfer will be published after the conference for selected papers that will be reviewed according to the Journal?s review criteria.The NSF funding will be used to subsidize the registration fees for graduate and undergraduate students so that they can enjoy all social and other functions as regular attendees with significantly reduced cost.The intellectual merit of this conference is to promote and encourage international collaboration and interactions, especially in the new frontiers of micro/nanoscale heat and mass transfer and their impact to society. Such interactions will enable future opportunities in engineering research, including new directions and transformation research. Many of the participants will present newly research works funded by the National Science Foundation.The broader impact of the conference is that it will bring together experts in nano-science and engineering which have accomplished nanoscale science and engineering researches that can affect broad areas in materials, energy, transportation, environment, national security, and health care. The conference will promote academic-government-industry collaborations and international corporations. As an effort of human resource development, young researchers, including junior faculty and graduate students, especially those from the underrepresented groups, will be particularly encouraged to attend the conference so that to provide them with opportunities of interaction and collaboration with their peers within and outside of the United States.

PI：ZhangCBET-1152129该项目将资助参加2012年3月3日至6日在佐治亚州亚特兰大市格鲁吉亚科技全球学习中心举行的第三届微/纳米尺度热质传递国际会议。会议由ASME传热部和格鲁吉亚理工学院主办。纳米科学和工程的重要性已得到研究界和政府组织的充分认识。人们相信，纳米科技的突破将改变社会的方方面面，从能源利用、生物医学到国土安全。该会议旨在为世界各地的研究人员和教育工作者提供一个论坛，交流最先进的研究和开发，并确定这一新兴领域的研究需求。会议将包括主题演讲和特邀演讲，口头和海报演讲，以及关于现状和未来机会的小组讨论。ASME热传递杂志的特刊将在会议结束后出版，根据该杂志对选定的论文进行审查。NSF的资助将用于资助研究生和本科生的注册费，使他们能够以显著降低的成本享受作为定期与会者的所有社交及其他功能。本次会议的智力价值是促进和鼓励国际合作和互动，特别是在微/纳米热质传递及其对社会的影响的新前沿。这种相互作用将为工程研究提供未来的机会，包括新的方向和转型研究。这次会议的更大影响在于，它将汇集在材料、能源、交通、环境、国家安全和医疗等广泛领域完成纳米科学和工程研究的专家。该会议将促进学术-政府-行业合作和国际公司。作为人力资源开发的一项努力，将特别鼓励年轻的研究人员，包括初级教师和研究生，特别是那些来自代表性不足的群体的研究人员参加会议，以便为他们提供与美国国内外同行互动和合作的机会。
