Pacifichem 2020 Symposia #337, #396, #106, and #109; Honolulu, HI - Dec. 2020

关于纳米材料与生物和生态系统之间相互作用的研究已经产生了大量的文献。由于这些研究活动，目前正在审查现行条例是否适当。这些研讨会的总体目标是促进与纳米技术相关的多个学科之间的合作和讨论。这些专题讨论会将有助于把化学家、生物学家、工程师和立法者聚集在一起，讨论必要的方法和具有成本效益的措施，以防止由于纳米材料的广泛使用而造成的无意的环境和健康退化。对这些专题讨论会的支持将为优秀的研究生和参与者提供旅行资金，以参加2020年12月15日至20日在夏威夷檀香山举行的2020年太平洋盆地学会国际化学大会。获奖的研究生和参与者将由一个科学委员会根据他们的智力价值和研究的广泛影响来选择。为促进多样性、公平和包容，将高度优先考虑来自传统上代表性不足群体的学生和参与者。获奖学生和参与者将有机会接触各种科学主题，包括但不限于纳米生物相互作用、纳米毒理学、纳米医学、胶体和表面科学、颗粒物质、智能表面、自组装、3D打印器官和生物纳米技术。重点将放在理解和设计安全的纳米生物界面材料，医药和环境。这些研讨会将为学生和参与者提供一个交流纳米技术领域的研究和教育活动的绝佳机会。PI将邀请杰出的研究人员和学生参加将于2020年12月15日至20日在夏威夷檀香山举行的2020年太平洋盆地学会国际化学大会（Pacifichem）的四个专题讨论会。这四个研讨会分别是(1)理解和设计材料、医学和环境的安全纳米生物界面，(2)气泡、液滴、薄膜和软物质的界面现象，(3)肽自组装：化学和纳米技术，以及(4)化学、生物学和材料中的3D打印。这四个专题讨论会都是高度跨学科的，对多个科学学科都有深远的影响。这种支持将为学生和参与者提供一个独特的机会来参加Pacifichem 2020，并学习纳米技术和纳米安全的最新知识。PI将通过发表评论和评论文章向学术界和工业界传播知识，这些文章将突出纳米生物相互作用、胶体和表面科学、自组装肽和纳米医学、增材制造以及这些研讨会讨论的其他主要主题。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。

A large body of literature has resulted from research on interactions between nanomaterials and biological and ecological systems. As a consequence of these research activities, current regulations are being examined for adequacy. The overall goal of these symposia is to promote collaboration and discussion across multiple disciplines related to nanotechnology. These symposia will help bring together chemists, biologists, engineers, and legislators to discuss the necessary approaches and to discuss cost-effective measures to prevent unintentional environmental and health degradation as a result of the widespread use of nanomaterials. Support for these symposia will provide outstanding graduate students and participants with travel funds to attend the 2020 International Chemical Congress of Pacific Basin Societies, to be held in Honolulu, Hawaii, December 15-20, 2020. The awarded graduate students and participants will be selected by a scientific committee based on the intellectual merit and the broader impacts of their research. To promote diversity, equity and inclusion, students and participants from traditionally underrepresented groups will be given high priority. The awarded students and participants will have the opportunity to expose to be a variety of scientific topics, including but not limited to nano-bio interactions, nanotoxicology, nanomedicine, colloid and surface science, particulate matter, smart surfaces, self-assembly, 3D printed organs, and bionanotechnology. Particular focus will be on understanding and designing safe nano-bio interfaces for materials, medicine, and the environment. These symposia will provide students and participants with an excellent opportunity to communicate research and education activities in the area of nanotechnology.The PI will seek participation from distinguished researchers and students in four symposia within the 2020 International Chemical Congress of Pacific Basin Societies (Pacifichem), which will be held in Honolulu, Hawaii, December 15-20, 2020. These four symposia are (1) Understanding and Designing Safe Nano‐Bio Interfaces for Materials, Medicine, and the Environment, (2) Interfacial Phenomena for Bubbles, Droplets, Films and Soft Matter, (3) Peptide Self‐Assembly: Chemistry and Nanotechnology, and (4) 3D Printing in Chemistry, Biology and Materials. All four symposia are highly interdisciplinary and have far-reaching impacts on multiple scientific disciplines. This support will provide students and participants with a unique opportunity to attend the Pacifichem 2020, and to learn the state-of-the-art knowledge of nanotechnology and nanosafety. The PI will disseminate knowledge to the academic community and the industry through the publication of review and commentary articles that will highlight the state-of-the-art of nano-bio interactions, colloid and surface sciences, self-assembled peptides and nanomedicine, additive manufacturing, and other major topics discussed in these symposia.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.
