建议1550387ECCS：参加第18届固态传感器、执行器和微系统国际会议的学生旅行PI：Robert Candler。目标：传感器2015是第18届固态传感器、执行器和微系统国际会议，将于2015年6月21日至6月25日在阿拉斯加的安克雷奇举行。会议将包括来自学术界、工业界和政府研究实体的与会者。大会将通过口头和海报展示的方式，营造公开讨论近期研究成果的氛围。与往年一样，Transducers大会将继续提供以学生为中心的研究讨论平台，为研究生提供大量展示和讨论他们的研究的机会。国家科学基金会正在申请资助研究生讲师的旅费。非技术摘要：固态传感器、执行器和微系统国际会议为与会者提供身临其境的技术体验，展示了使用微和纳米技术的机械、光学、化学和商业设备和系统的重大技术、科学和商业突破。第18届会议通常被称为“换能器”，将由在MEMS领域拥有25年经验的Tom Kenny教授主持。技术计划包括世界知名的全体会议和特邀演讲者，以及同行评议的口头和海报演示会议。换能器将继续其以学生为中心的会议的传统，在会议上，绝大多数演讲由研究生和博士后学者发表。这个奖项将支持研究生的旅行吗？出席会议并会见该主题的顶级演讲者。技术摘要：来自该奖项的支持将导致几名研究生参加2015年传感器会议。会议领域的MEMS/NEMS和换能器是当前技术的重要领域。该奖项的影响如下：(1)不同的研究生研究人员群体有机会与研究界的高级成员互动，拓宽他们的科学视野，促进他们的职业发展(2)加强对支撑微/纳米级传感器、执行器和微系统发展的科学的了解(3)促进和促进不同领域的研究人员之间的长期关系，包括生物工程、化学工程、机械工程、电气工程、化学、和物理(4)促进多学科团队的发展，这些团队可以通过让与会者接触到广泛的微/纳米科学进步来解决使用微和纳米技术的难题。建议：根据对2015年传感器会议将涵盖的主题的描述，目的是支持大量学生参加会议，以及资金用于支持学生旅行的具体目的，我们建议为这项提案提供15,000美元的申请资金。莫娜·扎格鲁项目主任ECCS/CCSS

Proposal 1550387ECCS: Student Travel for the 18th International conference on Solid State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems PI: Robert Candler.Institution: University of California. Objectives:Transducers 2015, the 18th International Conference on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators, and Microsystems, will be held from June 21st through June 25th, 2015 in Anchorage Alaska. The meeting will include participants from academia, industry, and government research entities. The conference will create an atmosphere for open discussion of recent research results through oral and poster presentations. As in previous years, the Transducers conference will continue to provide a student-centered platform for research discussions, providing graduate students a large number of opportunities to present and discuss their research. Funding is being requested from the National Science Foundation to support travel costs for graduate student presenters.Non-Technical abstract:The International Conference on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators, and Microsystems provides an immersive technical experience for attendees, showcasing major technological, scientific and commercial breakthroughs in mechanical, optical, chemicaland biological devices and systems using micro and nanotechnology. The 18th session of this meeting, commonly called "Transducers", will be chaired by Prof. Tom Kenny, who has 25 years experience in the MEMS community. The technical program includesworld-renowned plenary and invited speakers, as well as sessions for peer-reviewed oral and poster presentations. Transducers will continue its tradition of being a student focused conference, where a large majority of the presentations are given by graduatestudents and postdoctoral scholars. This award will support the travel of graduate students? to attend the conference and meet top speakers on the subject.Technical abstract:The support from this award will result in several graduate students attending this meeting Transducers 2015. The areas of the conference MEMS/NEMS and transducers are very important areas for the current technology. The impact of this award will be as follows:(1) Opportunities for a diverse group of graduate student researchers to interact withsenior members of the research community, broadening their scientificperspective and promoting their career development(2) Enhance understanding of the science that underpins the development ofmicro/nanoscale sensors, actuators, and microsystems(3) Foster and promote long-term relationships between researchers in diverse fieldsincluding bioengineering, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering,electrical engineering, chemistry, and physics(4) Promote the development of multidisciplinary teams that can address difficultproblems using micro- and Nano-technologies by exposing the conferenceattendees to a broad range of micro/nanoscale scientific advances.Recommendation:Based on the description of the topics that will be covered in Transducers meeting 2015, the intent is to support large number of students to participate in the conference , as well as the specific purpose of the funds to support students travel, we recommend that this proposal be funded in the requested amount of $15,000.
