American Chemical Society Symposium Advancing the Chemical Sciences Through Diversity in Participation, August 10-14, 2014

通过化学学部（CHE）、材料研究学部（DMR）、化学、生物工程、环境和运输系统学部（CBET）和多学科活动办公室（OMA），为美国化学会通过多样性参与推进化学科学研讨会提供支持。本次研讨会将于2014年8月10日至14日在加州旧金山举行的第248届美国化学会全国会议上举行。它正在与ACS奖的奖励研讨会一起举行，鼓励弱势学生进入化学科学的职业生涯，以表彰2014年获奖者Rigoberto Hernandez教授。本次研讨会的主要主办单位是美国化学会少数民族事务委员会，研讨会由ACS多样性和包容性顾问委员会、ACS分析化学学部、ACS化学教育学部、ACS化学计算机学部、ACS物理化学学部、ACS高分子材料学部共同主办。科学与工程、美国化学学会高分子化学分会、残疾化学家委员会、女性化学家委员会、青年化学家委员会和国际活动委员会。本次研讨会的主讲人来自化学、化学工程、心理学和科学进步研究公司。这些演讲者将报告影响STEM劳动力职业和STEM教育因素的学术研究，并分享与科学的智力价值和更广泛影响相关的个人经验。研讨会计划委员会由博士。Larry Dalton（华盛顿大学），Robert Lichter （Merrimack有限责任公司，前Dreyfus基金会董事）和Charles Liotta（佐治亚理工学院）。

Support is provided for the American Chemical Society Symposium on Advancing the Chemical Sciences Through Diversity in Participation through the Division of Chemistry (CHE), the Division of Materials Research (DMR), the Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental and Transport Systems (CBET), and the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities (OMA). This symposium is to be held at 248th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society, San Francisco, CA, August 10-14, 2014. It is being held in conjunction with the Award Symposium for the ACS Award for Encouraging Disadvantaged Students into Careers in the Chemical Sciences Honoring 2014 Award Recipient Professor Rigoberto Hernandez. The primary sponsor of this symposium is the American Chemical Society Committee on Minority Affairs and the symposium is co-sponsored by the ACS Diversity and Inclusion Advisory Board, the ACS Division of Analytical Chemistry, the ACS Division of Chemical Education, the ACS Division of Computers in Chemistry, the ACS Division of Physical Chemistry, the ACS Division of Polymeric Materials: Science & Engineering, the ACS Division of Polymer Chemistry, the Chemist with Disabilities Committee, the Women Chemists Committee, the Young Chemists Committee, and the International Activities Committee. The featured speakers at this symposium come from Chemistry, Chemical Engineering,Psychology and the Research Corporation for Scientific Advancement. These speakers will report scholarly studies on factors influencing careers in the STEM workforce and STEM education and will share personal experiences related to both the intellectual merit of science and broader impacts. The symposium program committee consists of Drs. Larry Dalton (University of Washington), Robert Lichter (Merrimack, LLC; formerly Director of the Dreyfus Foundation), and Charles Liotta (Georgia Institute of Technology).
