This grant award will support the participation of fifteen U.S. students, postdocs and/or early-career scientists in an international conference at the cutting edge of environmental microbiology. It will enable vital networking for the participants, opportunities for initiating new collaborative research with international colleagues, and the advancement of research and discovery by U.S. scientists. The conference will include scientists from many countries, including the USA, Germany, Netherlands, France, Austria, Spain, Australia, and China. The topics address areas of basic scientific research, as well as the role of archeal microorganisms in as diverse as the production of natural gas and microbiome contributions to human health and agriculture.A group of world experts is organizing the International Conference on Geo-Omics of Archaea (ICGOA), to be held in Shenzhen, China from October 25th to 27th, 2019. The grant will help advance U.S. efforts in conducting research into fundamental questions related to the biology, physiology, diversity, biogeochemistry, ecology and evolution of Archaea. Participants will also be invited to participate in one or more synthesis manuscripts describing key advancements in areas of Archaeal biology. To maximize impact on broadening participation and development of science excellence in the U.S., funding support: (1) members of underrepresented groups in science; (2) graduate students and/or postdocs; and (3) early-career Assistant Professors.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.

该补助金将支持15名美国学生，博士后和/或早期职业科学家参加环境微生物学前沿的国际会议。 它将为参与者提供重要的网络，与国际同事开展新的合作研究的机会，以及美国科学家的研究和发现的进步。会议将包括来自许多国家的科学家，包括美国，德国，荷兰，法国，奥地利，西班牙，澳大利亚和中国。这些主题涉及基础科研领域，以及古生物微生物在天然气生产和微生物组对人类健康和农业的贡献等方面的作用。一组世界专家正在组织将于2019年10月25日至27日在中国深圳举行的古生物地球组学国际会议（ICGOA）。 这笔赠款将有助于推动美国在生物学、生理学、多样性、地球化学、生态学和进化等基本问题上的研究。 与会者还将被邀请参加一个或多个综合手稿描述在微生物学领域的关键进展。为了最大限度地扩大对美国科学卓越的参与和发展的影响，资金支持：该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
