The field of Adaptive Optics has made tremendous advances in the last decade. For many years it was exclusively used for real-time correction of the effects of atmospheric turbulence in images produced by telescopes. Over the past few years, however, the application of Adaptive Optics has broadened with the technology. Nowadays, Adaptive Optics is not only employed in astronomical and vision science applications; but it is also used in microscopy, X-ray beam control, and line-of-site communication. The future generation of giant telescopes will rely on advanced Adaptive Optics, making this technology even more essential to the scientific enterprise. It is therefore particularly important to support interdisciplinary research in this promising area.This award provides partial support for the 2015 Adaptive Optics Topical Meeting, to be held in Arlington, VA, between 7-11 June, 2015. The meeting will bring together experts working in the many disciplines that develop adaptive optics, including both academia and industry. The workshop is designed to encourage interdisciplinary thinking and collaboration, and to serve as an effective platform to educate students, future scientists and engineers in multidisciplinary fields. The meeting will permit the dissemination of recent technological developments and novel applications in the field, exchange and stimulate ideas, advance innovation in adaptive optics, and provide a showcase on control algorithms.

自适应光学领域在过去十年中取得了巨大的进步。多年来，它专门用于实时校正望远镜产生的图像中大气湍流的影响。然而，在过去的几年里，自适应光学的应用随着技术的发展而扩大。如今，自适应光学不仅用于天文学和视觉科学应用，而且还用于显微镜，X射线光束控制和现场通信。未来一代的巨型望远镜将依赖于先进的自适应光学技术，使这项技术对科学事业更加重要。该奖项为2015年6月7日至11日在弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿举行的2015年自适应光学专题会议提供部分支持。会议将汇集在开发自适应光学的许多学科中工作的专家，包括学术界和工业界。该研讨会旨在鼓励跨学科思维和合作，并作为一个有效的平台，教育学生，未来的科学家和工程师在多学科领域。会议将允许传播该领域的最新技术发展和新应用，交流和激发想法，推进自适应光学的创新，并提供控制算法的展示。
