The 19th International Congress on Nitrogen Fixation (ICNF-19) that will be held at the Asilomar Conference in Pacific Grove, California from October 4-9, 2015 is a scientific meeting that provides outstanding opportunities for graduate students and postdoctoral scientists to interact with scientists from academia and industry on a global scale. The meeting actively emphasizes and supports the training of students and postdocs in developing their communication and interpersonal skills. Detailed efforts are planned to broaden the participation of women and members of groups under-represented in the sciences. The funding provided by NSF will broaden participation and help defray the costs of participation of students, postdoctoral associates and early-career investigators from the U.S. scientific community.Since 1974, the ICNF has brought together previously insular research communities to stimulate international dialogue on the critical issues relating to biological nitrogen fixation. The conference presents perspectives on the state of knowledge and covers diverse topics on nitrogen fixation. The 2015 conference will have an outstanding program consisting of five plenary speakers: Peter Vitousek (Stanford University), Dennis Dean (Virginia Tech), Claire Gough (INRA, France), Jens Stougaard (Aarhus University, Denmark) and Mariangela Hungria (EMBRAPA, Brazil) along with closing remarks by Hauke Hennecke (ETH, Zurich). The core program includes poster sessions as well as 12 sessions consisting of oral talks on the Biochemistry of Nitrogen Fixation, the Chemistry & Theory of Nitrogen, Technology & Business Aspects, Regulation & Physiology, Molecular Genetics & Genomics of Legume Symbioses, Nodule Development & Physiology, Global Aspects, the Evolution, & Ecology, Genetics & Genomics of Legume Symbiosis, Real World & Food Security Issues, Microbiology & Synthetic Biology, and Non-Legume Systems. The content of the meeting will be disseminated by providing access to abstracts through the conference web site. In addition, like many previous ICNF meetings, the plan is to publish a book volume summarizing the presentations for ICNF-19.

第19届国际固氮大会（ICNF-19）将于2015年10月4日至9日在加州太平洋格罗夫举行的Asilomar会议上举行，这是一次科学会议，为研究生和博士后科学家提供了与全球范围内的学术界和工业界科学家互动的绝佳机会。 会议积极强调和支持培养学生和博士后的沟通和人际交往能力。 计划作出详细努力，扩大妇女和在科学领域代表性不足的群体成员的参与。美国国家科学基金会提供的资金将扩大参与范围，并帮助支付来自美国科学界的学生、博士后研究员和早期职业研究人员的参与费用。自1974年以来，ICNF将以前孤立的研究团体聚集在一起，以促进有关生物固氮关键问题的国际对话。 会议提出了对知识状态的看法，并涵盖了固氮的各种主题。 2015年会议将有一个由五位全体发言人组成的杰出计划：Peter Vitousek（斯坦福大学），Dennis Dean（弗吉尼亚理工大学），Claire Gough（INRA，法国），Jens Stougaard（奥胡斯大学，丹麦）和Mariangela Hungria（EMBRAPA，巴西）沿着Hauke Hennecke（ETH，苏黎世）的闭幕词。 核心课程包括海报会议以及12个会议，包括关于固氮生物化学，氮的化学理论，技术商业方面，调节生理学，豆类共生的分子遗传学基因组学，营养发育生理学，全球方面，进化，生态学，豆类共生的遗传学基因组学，真实的世界粮食安全问题，微生物学合成生物学和非豆类系统的口头讲座。将通过会议网站提供摘要，传播会议内容。此外，像许多以前的ICNF会议一样，计划出版一本书，总结ICNF-19的演讲。
