This effort is in support of a workshop entitled the "2016 ACS Renyi Zhang Symposium" to honor Professor Renyi Zhang from the Departments of Atmospheric Sciences and Chemistry at Texas A&M University for his seminal contributions to the field of atmospheric chemistry. The Symposium will be held 21-25 August 2016, as part of the 252nd American Chemical Society National Meeting & Exposition in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This project will provide travel support to the Symposium for early career scientists in several categories, i.e., undergraduate students, graduate students, post docs, and non-tenured faculty members.Dr. Zhang's research activities have produced several groundbreaking discoveries in the investigation of the formation, growth, and physical and chemical properties of atmospheric particles. For example, Dr. Zhang's Science publication revealed that organic acids form strongly hydrogen-bonded complexes with sulfuric acid and reduce the barrier required for nucleation, contributing significantly to global aerosol production. In other important publications Dr. Zhang elucidated the fundamental chemical role of organics in atmospheric nanoparticle growth. Symposium topics include: (a) the investigation of the formation, growth, and physical and chemical properties of atmospheric aerosols, and (b) the assessment of climate and air quality implications of atmospheric aerosols. Awards for Best Student Presentation will be made at the symposium.

这项工作是为了支持题为“2016 ACS Renyi 张仁义研讨会”的研讨会，以表彰德克萨斯农工大学大气科学与化学系的张仁义教授对大气化学领域的开创性贡献。该研讨会将于 2016 年 8 月 21 日至 25 日举行，作为在宾夕法尼亚州费城举行的第 252 届美国化学会全国会议暨博览会的一部分。 该项目将为本科生、研究生、博士后和非终身教职人员等多个类别的早期职业科学家提供研讨会旅行支持。张的研究活动在大气颗粒的形成、生长以及物理和化学性质的研究方面取得了多项突破性的发现。例如，张博士的《科学》出版物揭示，有机酸与硫酸形成强氢键复合物，并减少成核所需的势垒，对全球气溶胶的产生做出了重大贡献。在其他重要出版物中，张博士阐明了有机物在大气纳米粒子生长中的基本化学作用。研讨会主题包括：（a）大气气溶胶的形成、生长以及物理和化学性质的调查，以及（b）大气气溶胶对气候和空气质量影响的评估。研讨会将颁发最佳学生演讲奖。
