This award provides travel support for 12 United States researchers to attend an international meeting on ?Synergy with and Learning from Nature? to be held on October 20-22, 2011, in Istanbul, Turkey. The goal of the meeting is to bring together diverse research communities to identify research areas that will advance knowledge both in engineering and physical sciences as well as in life sciences. Specifically, the meeting will focus on the understanding and design of engineering systems that are in synergy with and learning from nature. The meeting is co-sponsored by the European Science Foundation (ESF), the Turkish Science and Technology Council (TUBITAK), the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST), the National Science Council of Taiwan (NSC), and the Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials (KIMM). It will be attended by experts from all over the world.A key outcome of the meeting will be an international research agenda designed to help funding agencies to prioritize the investment of their research funds in the area of advanced sensors and sensor-based decision making and control. A secondary outcome of the meeting will be encouragement to women and minorities to become involved in this area of science and engineering.

该奖项为12名美国研究人员提供旅行支持，以参加一个国际会议？与大自然协同并向大自然学习？将于2011年10月20日至22日在土耳其伊斯坦布尔举行。会议的目标是将不同的研究界聚集在一起，以确定将促进工程和物理科学以及生命科学知识的研究领域。具体而言，会议将侧重于与自然协同并向自然学习的工程系统的理解和设计。这次会议是由欧洲科学基金会（ESF），土耳其科学和技术理事会（TUBITAK），日本科学和技术机构（JST），台湾国家科学理事会（NSC）和韩国机械和材料研究所（KIMM）共同主办的。会议的一个主要成果是制定一个国际研究议程，旨在帮助资助机构优先考虑在先进传感器和基于传感器的决策和控制领域的研究资金投资。 会议的次要成果是鼓励妇女和少数族裔参与这一科学和工程领域。
