This award provides support for the travel and conference registration fees of students and young investigators as participants in the 2018 Gordon Research Conference (GRC) and Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on Fundamental Biotic and Abiotic Mechanisms of Biomineralization being held in New London, New Hampshire, July 29 - August 3, 2018. The meeting will allow young investigators to network with establish researchers to discuss cutting edge research about new ideas and future concepts of how to harness or mimic designs and the methods used in nature to achieve them. This GRC in Biomineralization will focus on discussions of a the fundamental and applied aspects of biomineralization, bringing together chemists, physicists, biologists, geologists, medical doctors, and engineers who would otherwise not overlap on the conference circuit, in a setting that allows new ideas and insights to be shared and applied across interdisciplinary boundaries. The conference will include a broad range of researchers, from graduate students and post-doctoral trainees to world leaders in this area, to disseminate the latest advances and develop connections to advance this key field of research moving forward. Award funds will be used to support students and trainees so that they can present their research and develop the research network necessary to advance both science and their careers.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项为学生和年轻研究人员的旅行和会议注册费提供支持，作为2018年戈登研究会议（GRC）和戈登研究研讨会（GRS）的参与者，该研讨会将于2018年7月29日至8月3日在新罕布什尔州新伦敦举行。会议将允许年轻的研究人员与建立研究人员网络，讨论关于如何利用或模仿设计以及在自然界中使用的方法来实现它们的新想法和未来概念的前沿研究。这个生物矿化的GRC将集中讨论生物矿化的基本和应用方面，汇集化学家，物理学家，生物学家，地质学家，医生和工程师，否则他们不会在会议电路上重叠，在一个允许跨学科边界共享和应用新思想和见解的环境中。会议将包括广泛的研究人员，从研究生和博士后学员到这一领域的世界领导者，以传播最新进展并建立联系，推动这一关键研究领域向前发展。奖励资金将用于支持学生和受训者，使他们能够展示他们的研究，并发展必要的研究网络，以促进科学和他们的职业生涯。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。
