This workshop brings multiple COVID-19 research teams from across the U.S. to Alaska to share findings, synthesize results, and enhance planning and messaging efforts for future pandemics. The workshop will provide opportunities to compare data collection and analytic methods, develop new collaborations, and present research findings. Working together, workshop participants will synthesize research across disciplinary lines, addressing pandemic responses in Alaska communities with vast differences in culture, economics, infrastructure, and geography. By amplifying the results of funded projects, the workshop will advance understanding of pandemic responses, strengthen research capacity in Alaska, and foster convergent approaches to societal challenges.Outputs of the workshop include a peer-reviewed publication in an international journal that synthesizes the approaches, findings, and recommendations developed collaboratively by the research teams; a series of public outreach activities, and science communication training for participants. Together, these activities will generate an interdisciplinary network of researchers across the state, deliver accessible science to the research community and the general public, and elevate the visibility of Arctic research on community health and well-being.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.

本次研讨会将来自美国各地的多个 COVID-19 研究团队聚集到阿拉斯加，分享发现、综合结果，并加强针对未来流行病的规划和信息传递工作。该研讨会将提供比较数据收集和分析方法、开展新合作并展示研究成果的机会。研讨会参与者将共同努力，综合跨学科领域的研究，解决文化、经济、基础设施和地理差异巨大的阿拉斯加社区的流行病应对措施。通过扩大资助项目的成果，研讨会将增进对流行病应对措施的理解，加强阿拉斯加的研究能力，并促进采取一致的方法应对社会挑战。研讨会的成果包括在国际期刊上发表的一份经过同行评审的出版物，该出版物综合了研究团队合作开发的方法、发现和建议；一系列公众宣传活动，以及为参与者提供科学传播培训。这些活动共同将在全州建立一个跨学科的研究人员网络，向研究界和公众提供可获取的科学知识，并提高北极研究对社区健康和福祉的知名度。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和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
