This award will provide support for the attendees and invited speakers for the twentieth Annual Symposium of the NSF Astronomy and Astrophysics Postdoctoral Fellows, to be held in conjunction with the winter meeting of the American Astronomical Society in January 2022, in Salt Lake City, Utah. The purpose of the Astronomy and Astrophysics Postdoctoral Fellowships (AAPF) Program is to support integrated research and education activities at the postdoctoral level to better prepare its fellows for positions of distinction and leadership in the scientific community. The Annual Symposium provides a forum for the Fellows to discuss their research and education projects while increasing their visibility within the astronomy and astrophysics community. The Symposium represents a key component of the AAPF Program and is a very effective mechanism to facilitate the transfer of knowledge and experience that the Fellows have acquired through their postdoctoral training. As with previous symposia in this series, the 2022 AAPF Symposium will promote interactions among astronomers with diverse research interests and backgrounds. By creating a forum in which discussions can occur across traditional research boundaries, the Symposium will provide Fellows the opportunity to gain new insights and pursue interdisciplinary collaborations. The Symposium will also provide a venue for discussing major issues that are important to early-career astronomers. In addition, the Symposium will (1) provide a forum to discuss integrated research and education activities, (2) facilitate collaborations between Fellows on both research and education, and (3) provide greater exposure for the Fellows and the AAPF Program within the astronomical community.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.

该奖项将为与会者和NSF天文学和天体物理学博士后研究员第二十届年度研讨会的特邀演讲者提供支持，该研讨会将于2022年1月在犹他湖城与美国天文学会冬季会议一起举行。天文学和天体物理学博士后奖学金（AAPF）计划的目的是支持博士后水平的综合研究和教育活动，以更好地为科学界的杰出和领导职位做好准备。年度研讨会为研究员提供了一个论坛，讨论他们的研究和教育项目，同时提高他们在天文学和天体物理学界的知名度。研讨会是AAPF计划的一个关键组成部分，是一个非常有效的机制，以促进知识和经验的转让，研究员已经通过他们的博士后培训获得。与本系列的前几次研讨会一样，2022年AAPF研讨会将促进具有不同研究兴趣和背景的天文学家之间的互动。通过创建一个论坛，讨论可以跨越传统的研究界限，研讨会将提供研究员获得新的见解和追求跨学科合作的机会。研讨会还将提供一个场所，讨论对早期职业天文学家很重要的重大问题。此外，研讨会将（1）提供一个论坛，讨论综合研究和教育活动，（2）促进研究员之间在研究和教育方面的合作，以及（3）该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值进行评估，更广泛的影响审查标准。
