Non-technical abstract Meeting of New Investigators is organized to provide researchers with necessary information about NSF process, opportunities and mechanisms related to proposal submission. A group of first-time applicants or those who did not apply to NSF in the past will be provided helpful information designed to improve their proposal writing skills and understand the NSF process better. A mock proposal review activity will enable better understanding of the merit review process. Participation of PIs from small colleges and underrepresented groups was encouraged. Applicants from underrepresented groups are especially encouraged to apply, with a goal of broadening participation of talented new PIs from diverse backgrounds in STEM research.Technical Abstract Participants of the 2019 MPS Workshop for New Investigators will receive information about the NSF process presented by current or past Program Directors. Specifically, the participants will be trained in Merit Review Principles, writing a successful proposal, building a strong Broader Impact component, Conflict of Interest and Ethics rules and they will learn about funding opportunities within NSF. Participants will write and review one-page proposals, to be evaluated by panels, including a full panel review process, discussion and writing panel summaries. The two-day intensive training obtained during the Workshop is expected to be most beneficial to a diverse pool of young PIs and increase their chances of successful interactions with NSF.This award is co-funded by Divisions within the Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences: Division of Physics, Division of Mathematical Sciences, Division of Chemistry, Division of Astronomical Sciences and Division of Materials Research.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.

组织新调查人员非技术性摘要会议，为研究人员提供与提案提交相关的NSF流程、机会和机制的必要信息。一组首次申请或过去没有申请过NSF的人将获得有用的信息，旨在提高他们的提案撰写技能，并更好地了解NSF的流程。模拟提案审查活动将使人们更好地了解功绩审查过程。鼓励来自小型学院和代表人数不足的群体的私人投资机构参加。特别鼓励来自代表性不足群体的申请者申请，目标是扩大来自不同背景的有才华的新PI对STEM研究的参与。2019年MPS新调查人员研讨会的技术摘要参与者将收到现任或前任计划主任介绍的有关NSF流程的信息。具体地说，参与者将接受功绩审查原则方面的培训，撰写一份成功的提案，建立一个强大而广泛的影响部分，利益冲突和道德规则，他们将了解国家科学基金的资金机会。与会者将撰写和审查一页的提案，由小组进行评估，包括完整的小组审查过程、讨论和撰写小组摘要。在研讨会期间获得的为期两天的强化培训预计将对不同的年轻个人投资者群体最有利，并增加他们与NSF成功互动的机会。该奖项由数学和物理科学局内的以下部门共同资助：物理部、数学科学部、化学部、天文科学部和材料研究部。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
