The International Union of Radio Science (URSI) General Assembly and Scientific Symposium (GASS) is held every three years. In 2011 the 30th URSI General Assembly was held in Istanbul, Turkey, with over 1,200 attendants. The next URSI-GASS will be held in Beijing, China on August 14-23, 2014. The National Academy of Sciences provides travel fellowships for young scientists to attend the URSI-GASS and travel support for senior scientists to represent the United States at the URSI Council meetings. Ultimately this ensures that we are maintaining U.S. pre-eminence in the field of radio science, strengthening the current and future health of U.S. scientific research and promoting scientific advances in these fields.This project is conducted by the U.S. National Committee for the International Union of Radio Science (USNC-URSI) which operates under the Board on International Scientific Organizations in the Policy and Global Affairs Division. The support for senior scientists to represent the United States at the URSI Council meetings allows them to participate in union discussions on scientific, programmatic, financial, and organizational topics; work with colleagues from other countries on resolutions and other union matters; and work with the U.S. early career travel awardees to ensure they are fully included and involved in the Scientific Symposium. The travel fellowships encourage students at U.S. universities to participate in the Scientific Symposium and in the 2014 URSI General Assembly and allow younger researchers to participate in scientific meetings in their field and to present their research to colleagues in an international setting. This exposes them to new scientific developments from both leading U.S. and international institutions, and contributed to their education and their professional development.

国际无线电科学联合会(URSI)大会和科学讨论会每三年举行一次。2011年，第三十届URSI大会在土耳其伊斯坦布尔举行，有1200多人出席。下一届URSI-GASS将于2014年8月14日至23日在北京举行，中国。美国国家科学院为年轻科学家参加URSI-GASS会议提供旅行奖学金，并为代表美国参加URSI理事会会议的资深科学家提供旅行支助。最终，这将确保我们保持美国在无线电科学领域的领先地位，加强美国科学研究的当前和未来的健康，并促进这些领域的科学进步。该项目由美国国际无线电科学联合会全国委员会(USNC-URSI)实施，该委员会隶属于政策和全球事务部的国际科学组织委员会。支持资深科学家代表美国出席URSI理事会会议，使他们能够参与工会关于科学、计划、财务和组织议题的讨论；与其他国家的同事就决议和其他工会事务进行合作；与美国早期职业旅行获奖者合作，确保他们充分参与科学研讨会。旅行奖学金鼓励美国大学的学生参加科学研讨会和2014年URSI大会，并允许年轻的研究人员参加各自领域的科学会议，并在国际环境下向同事展示他们的研究成果。这让他们接触到了美国和国际领先机构的新科学发展，并为他们的教育和职业发展做出了贡献。
