This award supports student travel to participate in the 2019 International Conference on Social Computing, Behavioral-Cultural Modeling & Prediction and Behavior Representation in Modeling and Simulation (SBP-BRiMS). The primary goal of the SBP-BRiMS conference is to bring together researchers, system scientists, and domain experts from diverse disciplines to discuss multidisciplinary problems related to computational social science and cultural and behavioral modeling, with the goal of developing novel theories and methodologies to advance our understanding of social interactions. The SBP-BRiMS conference has grown steadily, with approximately 130-220 participants per year attending from academia, industry and government sectors; along with its interdisciplinarity, this diversity in work contexts offers a rare opportunity for cross-fertilization between researchers from different backgrounds. This proposal's goal is to further enhance that diversity by supporting the participation of junior researchers from underrepresented and marginalized groups in STEM in both the main conference and the conference's doctoral consortium, help junior scholars get both deep feedback on their proposed research and chances to connect to the broader community of research around computational methods for modeling behavior. The conference will be held at George Washington University in July 2019. Participants will be recruited through a number of channels, including professional mailing lists related to SBP-BRiMS research areas and lists maintained by organizations whose goal is to increase participation of underrepresented groups in computing. Up to 15 students will be supported to attend the doctoral colloquium and conference, with selection criteria based on the potential contributions of students' work to the field and to the diversity of ideas at the conference and administered by the conference and doctoral consortium co-chairs. Selected students will participate in a number of activities, including research presentations, interdisciplinary tutorials, and cross-fertilization round table sessions involving researchers and program staff from federal agencies, that will offer them research training, professional development, and community building opportunities.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.

该奖项支持学生旅行参加2019年社会计算国际会议，行为文化建模与预测以及在建模和模拟中的行为表示（SBP-BRIMS）。 SBP-BRIMS会议的主要目标是将来自不同学科的研究人员，系统科学家和领域专家汇集在一起​​，讨论与计算社会科学以及文化科学以及文化和行为建模有关的多学科问题，以开发新颖的理论和方法来促进我们对社交互动的理解。 SBP-BRIMS会议稳定增长，每年约有130-220名参与者参加学术界，工业和政府部门；随着其跨学科性，工作环境中的这种多样性为来自不同背景的研究人员之间的交叉施用提供了难得的机会。 该提案的目标是通过支持在主要会议和会议的博士联盟中，来自代表性不足和边缘化群体的初级研究人员的参与进一步增强多样性，这帮助初级学者对他们所提出的研究和机会都深入反馈，以连接围绕建模行为的计算方法的更广泛的研究社区。该会议将于2019年7月在乔治华盛顿大学举行。参与者将通过许多渠道招募，包括与SBP-BRIMS研究领域有关的专业邮件清单以及由组织维护的清单，其目标是增加代表性不足的计算集团的参与。 将支持多达15名学生参加博士学位和会议，并根据学生对该领域的工作的潜在贡献以及会议上的想法多样性以及会议和博士联合会合作的管理，并获得了选择标准。 选定的学生将参加许多活动，包括研究演讲，跨学科教程以及涉及联邦机构的研究人员和计划人员的交叉授予式圆桌会议，这些会议将为他们提供研究培训，专业发展和社区建设机会。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过评估智能委员会进行了评估，并通过基金会的范围进行了评估和广泛的评估。
