13th International Congress on Combustion By-Products and Their Health Effects - Student Travel Stipends

环境化学科学计划为美国大学的8-10名研究生提供旅行奖励，参加2013年5月在新奥尔良会议中心万豪酒店举行的第13届燃烧副产品及其健康影响国际大会。这次会议汇集了学术界、政府和工业界的代表，共同介绍研究成果，更新国际政策，并讨论有关燃烧过程中有毒副产品排放的关键问题。自1990年以来，国际大会每两年举行一次，通常吸引来自世界各地的100至200名代表。学生将由常设组织委员会根据需要和提交演讲的摘要的质量选择。每个学生的资金将帮助支付参加会议的旅费。旅行现金奖励的可用性将在会议网站和论文征集上公布。这是一项值得努力的奋进，得到了环境化学科学计划的全力支持。环境研究正变得越来越多的跨学科，这次会议是专门为汇集科学家，工程师和健康影响研究人员讨论燃烧周围的环境问题。下一代研究人员必须熟悉这些跨学科的问题才能取得成功。通过鼓励学生参与并提供大量旅行和注册支持，下一代研究人员正在接受培训。

The Environmental Chemical Sciences Program supports a travel award for 8-10 graduate students at US universities to participate in the 13th International Congress on Combustion By-Products and their Health Effects to be held at the Marriott at the Convention Center in New Orleans, LA in May 2013. This meeting brings academic, government, and industrial representatives together to present research findings, update international policy, and discuss critical issues concerning emissions of toxic by-products from the combustion processes. The International Congress has met every two years since 1990, the Congress usually attracts between 100 and 200 delegates from all over the world. The students will be selected by the Standing Organizing Committee for the conference based on need and the quality of abstracts submitted for presentation. Funds for each student will help defray travel costs for attending the conference. The availability of the travel cash awards will be advertised on the conference website and the call for papers.This is a worthwhile endeavor that is fully supported by the Environmental Chemical Sciences Program. Environmental research is becoming increasingly interdisciplinary and this meeting is especially designed to bring together scientists, engineers, and health effects researchers to discuss the environmental issues surrounding combustion. The next generation of researchers must be familiar with these interdisciplinary issues to be successful. By encouraging the participation of students with significant travel and registration support, the next generation of researchers are being trained.
