This award provides support for the Graduate Student Symposium to be held at the 259th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society (ACS) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; March 24, 2020. The Graduate Student Symposium is organized entirely by graduate students and is held at each ACS National Meeting. The symposium, titled "Smart Materials: From Stimuli to Response," will highlight the fundamental science enabling smart materials discovery, synthesis, processing and application. The symposium will accomplish two primary objectives: to provide a forum for the discussion of the current state of smart materials research and to promote diversity and inclusion in the Chemical and Materials Science and Engineering communities. The symposium will consist of a series of lectures featuring ten speakers with diverse backgrounds who will discuss the underlying principles of smart materials and their applications, as well as a networking session for speakers and attendees. This award supports travel to the ACS National Meeting in Philadelphia for graduate student organizing committee members, ten speakers, and ten undergraduate students, with priority given to undergraduate students from traditionally underrepresented and socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds. Smart materials are materials that were designed to elicit a particular response when exposed to stimuli such as temperature or light. These responses can be tuned for specific applications. Attendees of this symposium will hear from distinguished speakers whose research collectively includes both the foundational science as well as various applications of smart materials in medicine, renewable energy, wearable electronics, and other burgeoning fields. A primary objective of this symposium is the promotion of diversity in science. The organizers have assembled a diverse list of speakers, and this award will provide travel support to these speakers as well as to undergraduate students from traditionally underrepresented and socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds. The symposium will provide the opportunity for students to interact with scientists at all career stages, from fellow undergraduate students to tenured faculty members, with the aim of providing a network of mentorship and support to a broad, diverse pipeline of researchers in Chemistry and Materials Science and Engineering and enhancing the future workforce. This award is co-funded by the Division of Materials Research's Crosscutting Program and the Advanced Manufacturing program in the Division of Civil, Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation.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.

该奖项为将于2020年3月24日在宾夕法尼亚州费城举行的第259届美国化学学会(ACS)全国会议上举行的研究生研讨会提供支持。研究生研讨会完全由研究生组织，并在每一次美国大学生联合会全国会议上举行。这场名为“智能材料：从刺激到反应”的研讨会将突出支持智能材料发现、合成、加工和应用的基础科学。研讨会将实现两个主要目标：为讨论智能材料研究的现状提供一个论坛，并促进化学和材料科学与工程界的多样性和包容性。研讨会将包括一系列讲座，来自不同背景的十位演讲者将讨论智能材料的基本原理及其应用，以及为演讲者和与会者举办的网络会议。该奖项支持研究生组委会成员、十名演讲者和十名本科生参加在费城举行的美国大学生联合会全国会议，并优先考虑来自传统代表性不足和社会经济弱势背景的本科生。智能材料是指当暴露在温度或光线等刺激下时，能够引起特定反应的材料。这些响应可以针对特定应用进行调整。本次研讨会的与会者将听取杰出演讲者的发言，他们的研究包括基础科学以及智能材料在医学、可再生能源、可穿戴电子设备和其他新兴领域的各种应用。这次研讨会的一个主要目标是促进科学的多样性。主办方汇集了不同的演讲者名单，该奖项将为这些演讲者以及来自传统代表不足和社会经济不利背景的本科生提供旅行支持。研讨会将为学生提供与所有职业阶段的科学家互动的机会，从本科生同伴到终身教职员工，目的是为化学和材料科学与工程领域广泛而多样的研究人员提供指导和支持网络，并加强未来的劳动力。该奖项由材料研究部门的交叉项目和土木、机械和制造创新部门的先进制造项目共同资助。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。
