Support graduate students to attend the Heidelberg Laureate Forum

橡树岭联合大学(ORAU)请求美国国家科学基金会(NSF)支持选择和出席2017年海德堡桂冠论坛(HLF)的美国研究生和博士后研究人员。海德堡桂冠论坛每年在德国海德堡举行，汇聚了来自世界各地的200名计算机和数学科学领域的年轻研究人员，通常有30名阿贝尔奖、菲尔兹奖、图灵奖和内瓦林纳奖的获奖者，并仿照诺贝尔物理学奖获得者林道会议的模式。Orau已经正式与HLF建立了合作伙伴关系，以组织一个美国代表团参加会议。这项提案要求为总共9名计算机科学研究生和博士后研究人员提供支持。ORAU建议通过以下方式支持这一计划：宣传和宣传机会；从不同的申请者池中招募和挑选；开发和维护一个计划网站，用于招募、选择、信息和传播；协调参与者的旅行和迎新活动，并进行后续调查，以记录计划的影响。

Oak Ridge Associated Universities, Inc. (ORAU) requests National Science Foundation (NSF) support for selection and attendance of US graduate students and postdoctoral researchers to attend the Heidelberg Laureate Forum (HLF) in 2017. The Heidelberg Laureate Forum takes place annually in Heidelberg, Germany, and brings 200 young researchers in the computer and mathematical sciences together from all over the world with a group of typically 30 laureates of the Abel Prize, Fields Medal, Turing Award, and Nevanlinna Prize, and is patterned after the Lindau Meeting of Nobel Laureates in the physical sciences. The ORAU has formalized a partnership with the HLF to organize a U.S. delegation for participation in the meetings. This proposal requests support for a total of 9 graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in computer science. The ORAU proposes to support this program by promoting and advertising the opportunity; recruiting from and selecting a diverse pool of applicants; developing and maintaining a program Web site for recruiting, selecting, information and dissemination; coordinating travel and orientation activities for participants, and conducting a follow-up survey to document the program's impact.
