Workshop: Student Travel Stipends for NAMS 2016

CBET-1636282加州大学洛杉矶分校P.I.：科恩，YoramTravel资金要求部分支持约30名本科生和研究生参加2016年5月21日至25日在华盛顿贝尔维尤举行的北美膜学会（NAMS 2016）会议的2016年年会。NAMS年会是全球最重要的膜会议之一。来自领先的学术，政府和工业研究实验室的膜领域的最新进展首次被膜界评估。会议将有18个单独的技术会议，涵盖膜科学和技术的各个方面。为会议制定了广泛的学生计划，包括三个海报会议，青年膜科学家论坛和午餐计划。还将举办四次技术研讨会。这些研讨会是学生们学习电化学应用的聚合物离子交换膜、测量、水处理用膜、聚合物和无机膜等关键领域的基础知识和前沿研究课题的绝佳场所。主办方预计来自世界各地的约500名膜研究人员代表工业界、政府和学术界。除了人力资源的开发外，该提案提供的支持还将允许展示全国最具创新性的学术实验室的最新研究成果。这种新材料和新技术的展示吸引了大量的工业参与，因为它提供了一个独特的环境来评估研究的商业化潜力。这种商业化带来的经济增长使整个国家受益。

CBET- 1636282University of California-Los AngelesP.I.: Cohen, YoramTravel funds are requested to partially support approximately 30 undergraduate and graduate students to attend the 2016 Annual Meeting of the North American Membrane Society (NAMS 2016) Conference in Bellevue, Washington from May 21-25, 2016. The NAMS annual meeting is one of the preeminent global membrane meetings. The latest developments in the membrane field from leading academic, governmental, and industrial research labs are presented for the first time for evaluation by the membrane community. The meeting will have 18 separate technical sessions covering all aspects of membrane science and technology. An extensive student program has been developed for the meeting, including the three poster sessions, Young Membrane Scientist Forum, and lunch programming. Four technical workshops will also be offered. These workshops are excellent venues for students to learn about fundamentals and advanced research topics in key areas such as Polymer Ion-Exchange Membranes for Electrochemical Applications; Measurements; Membranes for Water Treatment; and Polymeric and Inorganic Membranes.The organizers anticipate a total of approximately 500 membrane researchers from all over the world representing industry, government, and academia. In addition to the development of human resources, the support provided by this proposal will allow presentation of the latest research results from the most innovative academic laboratories around the country. This showcase of new materials and technologies attracts significant industrial participation as it provides a unique environment to evaluate the commercialization potential of the research. The economic growth associated with such commercialization benefits the entire country.
