Support of student travel to the EIPBN conference. To be held at the Gaylord Opryland Resort, Nashville, Tennessee, May 28-31, 2013.

hank Smith，麻省理工学院学生参加EIPBN会议的旅费支持该奖项将提供旅费支持，使学生能够参加2013年5月28日至5月31日在田纳西州纳什维尔的Gaylord Opryland度假村举行的第57届电子、离子和光子束技术与纳米制造国际会议。知识价值：这是纳米制造、电子和离子束光刻、光子和压印光刻、粒子束光学和纳米制造前沿应用领域的一次重要会议。这项旅行援助将使学生能够向高水平的国际科学界展示他们的研究。他们将观察科学家和工程师如何交流创新思想和其他信息，他们将听到纳米科学和技术最新研究成果的第一手报告。更广泛的影响：学习技术会议如何作为向他人传达信息的场所是研究生的一个重要因素？年代的教育。同样重要的是，学习如何以一种令人信服和可理解的方式来呈现一个项目的结果。年代的研究。所要求的支助将有助于实现这些目标。在会议上，学生们将建立重要的个人联系，并了解就业机会。在一个特别的学生早餐会上，会议组织者将向学生们介绍展示科学信息的最佳技术，以及会议计划是如何组合在一起的。提供支持将大大减轻学生在寻找参加会议所需资金方面的负担，特别是在他们学术生涯的早期，这一课程可能是最具形成性的。

ECCS-1321752Hank Smith, MITSupport of student travel to the EIPBN conferenceThis award will provide travel support to enable students to attend The 57th International Conference on Electron, Ion and Photon Beam Technology and Nanofabrication, 2013, to be held at the Gaylord Opryland Resort, Nashville, Tennessee, May 28 to May 31, 2013. Intellectual Merit: This is a major conference in the fields of nanofabrication, electron and ion-beam lithographies, photon and imprint lithographies, particle-beam optics, and forefront applications of nanofabrication. This travel aid will enable students to present their research to a high-level international scientific community. They will observe how scientists and engineers exchange innovative ideas and other information, and they will hear first-hand presentations of up-to-date research results in nanoscale science and technology.Broader Impacts: Learning how a technical conference serves as a venue for conveying information to others is an important element of a graduate student?s education. Also important is leaning how to present, in a cogent and understandable way, the results of one?s research. The requested support will help to accomplish these ends. At the conference, students will make important personal contacts and learn of employment opportunities. At a special student breakfast, the conference organizers will describe to the students optimal techniques for presenting scientific information and how the conference program is put together. The provision of support will greatly ease the burden on students in finding funds needed to attend a conference, especially early in their academic careers, when this lesson can be most formative.
