Visualization, or the use of interactive graphic representations to support data analysis, understanding, and communication, is an increasingly integral enabling technology across a wide array of application areas. This grant provides support for approximately 18 U.S.-based graduate students to participate in the IEEE VIS Doctoral Colloquium to be held in conjunction with the IEEE Visualization Conference (VIS 2019), October 20-25, 2019, in Vancouver, Canada. IEEE VIS is the premier annual international forum for advances in the science and engineering of visualization across academia, government, and industry. IEEE VIS brings together the world's leading researchers and practitioners with a shared interest in techniques, tools, and technology for interactive data analysis, data exploration, and data communication. The focus of the VIS Doctoral Colloquium is advancing PhD students' doctoral dissertation research through mentoring and networking with global research leaders in the science of visualization. Students participating in the Doctoral Colloquium are selected chiefly on the grounds of research excellence, meaning that supported students are advancing the state-of-the-art in the field of visualization. The Doctoral Colloquium provides an opportunity the students' projects to be shaped and improved through intellectual exchange, and for the students themselves to present and communicate the character of their work to a key group of their peer professionals. Since the students and mentors are a diverse group (nationality, gender, ethnicity, scientific discipline, and research specialization), the students' horizons are broadened at a critical stage in their professional development. Supporting participation of U.S. students in the VIS 2019 DC is important for the development of the next generation of researchers, practitioners and educators in this important scientific field. IEEE VIS was established in 1996 and has become the worldwide largest and most important conference on Scientific Visualization, Information Visualization and Visual Analytics. The IEEE VIS conference regularly draws over 1,000 participants from dozens of countries to a week of research presentations, tutorials, workshops, panels, demonstrations, posters, exhibitions and scientific discussions. The IEEE VIS Doctoral Colloquium was initiated in 2006, and has been highly successful in providing mentorship opportunities to leading PhD students at a key time in their scientific development. Students at the Doctoral Colloquium present their doctoral dissertation research and receive feedback from senior professionals in the visualization community. This event provides key feedback that shapes the students' research and professional development, helps the participants build a professional network both among themselves and with senior researchers in the field, and prepares them to emerge as future leaders of the field.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.

可视化或使用交互式图形表示来支持数据分析、理解和通信，是跨广泛应用领域日益不可或缺的支持技术。这笔赠款为大约 18 名美国研究生提供支持，以参加 IEEE VIS 博士座谈会，该研讨会将于 2019 年 10 月 20 日至 25 日在加拿大温哥华与 IEEE 可视化会议 (VIS 2019) 同期举行。 IEEE VIS 是学术界、政府和行业可视化科学和工程进展的重要年度国际论坛。 IEEE VIS 汇集了世界领先的研究人员和从业者，他们对交互式数据分析、数据探索和数据通信的技术、工具和技术有着共同的兴趣。 VIS 博士座谈会的重点是通过指导和与可视化科学领域的全球研究领导者建立联系来推进博士生的博士论文研究。参加博士讨论会的学生主要是根据研究卓越性来选择的，这意味着受支持的学生正在推进可视化领域的最先进技术。博士座谈会为学生提供了一个通过知识交流来塑造和改进项目的机会，也让学生自己向同行专业人士的关键群体展示和交流其工作的特点。由于学生和导师是一个多元化的群体（国籍、性别、种族、科学学科和研究专业），学生的视野在专业发展的关键阶段得到拓宽。支持美国学生参与 VIS 2019 DC 对于这一重要科学领域的下一代研究人员、从业者和教育工作者的发展非常重要。 IEEE VIS成立于1996年，现已成为全球最大、最重要的科学可视化、信息可视化和可视化分析会议。 IEEE VIS 会议定期吸引来自数十个国家的 1,000 多名参与者参加为期一周的研究演示、教程、研讨会、小组讨论、演示、海报、展览和科学讨论。 IEEE VIS 博士座谈会于 2006 年发起，在为处于科学发展关键时期的领先博士生提供指导机会方面取得了巨大成功。博士讨论会的学生展示他们的博士论文研究，并接受可视化社区高级专业人士的反馈。该活动提供了塑造学生研究和专业发展的关键反馈，帮助参与者在他们之间以及与该领域的高级研究人员建立专业网络，并为他们成为该领域的未来领导者做好准备。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并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，被认为值得支持。
