The project will support US participation in the XIIth Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) International Biology Symposium. The theme of this meeting and ancillary workshops is Scale Matters. Meeting sessions will specifically address biodiversity and physiology spanning from molecular through ecosystem scales. The project will provide partial support (airfare and meeting registration) for up to 25 US participants enabling them to travel to Leuven, Belgium and attend the SCAR International Biology Symposium in July 2017. Preference will be given to applicants who are students and early career scientists. The call for applications will be broadly disseminated to encourage participation by underrepresented groups in the sciences. The SCAR International Biology Symposium is a unique opportunity for US scientists to present their work and learn about the most recent findings on all aspects of Antarctic organisms and ecosystems research, to establish and strengthen international contacts, and to be actively involved in the development of new directions and the establishment of new frontiers in polar biology.

该项目将支持美国参加第十二届南极研究科学委员会（SCAR）国际生物学研讨会。本次会议和辅助研讨会的主题是规模问题。会议将专门讨论从分子到生态系统尺度的生物多样性和生理学问题。该项目将为多达25名美国参与者提供部分支持（机票和会议注册），使他们能够前往比利时鲁汶并参加2017年7月的SCAR国际生物学研讨会。优先考虑学生和早期职业科学家的申请人。将广泛散发申请通知，以鼓励科学界代表性不足的群体参与。SCAR国际生物学研讨会为美国科学家提供了一个独特的机会，让他们展示自己的工作，了解南极生物和生态系统研究各个方面的最新发现，建立和加强国际联系，并积极参与极地生物学新方向的发展和新前沿的建立。
