Conference: Conservation Paleobiology Symposium

非技术描述：这项提案涵盖了2023年2月在佛罗里达州盖恩斯维尔举行的保护古生物学研讨会的学生注册费。这次学术会议是由保护古生物学网络组织的，这是一个由NSF资助的网络，有来自44个国家的650多名成员，总部设在佛罗里达博物馆，佛罗里达大学。潜在的与会者来自世界各地，专门研究古生物学、考古学、保护科学和历史地质学等各种主题。参与者将包括来自大学、政府机构和非营利组织的人。这次会议将提供一种联系专家的方式，否则他们将没有机会见面和交流想法。通过资助学生注册费，这项提议将有助于吸引和吸引学生，特别是来自历史上代表性不足的群体的学生，从而培养下一代学者和教育工作者。学生的参与对科学和社会都很重要。这些人不仅将成为不断发展的保护古生物学学科的未来，而且他们经常有新的方法，并以新的和重要的方式应用科学。会议费往往很贵，许多学生很难负担得起。通过支付他们的注册费，学生更容易参加会议。技术描述：这项提案涵盖了2023年2月16日至2月19日在佛罗里达州盖恩斯维尔举行的保护古生物学研讨会的学生注册费。这次学术会议是由保护古生物学网络组织的，这是一个由NSF资助的网络，有来自44个国家的650多名成员，总部设在佛罗里达博物馆，佛罗里达大学。潜在的与会者包括来自学术机构、州和联邦政府机构以及非营利组织的人，他们在地理上、纪律上和专业上都是不同的。潜在与会者的分支学科包括但不限于古生物学、考古学、保护科学和历史地质学。这次会议将为跨学科专家提供一个场所，否则他们将没有机会见面和交流想法。通过资助学生注册费，这项建议将有助于我们努力吸引和吸引学生，特别是来自历史上代表性不足的群体的学生，从而培养下一代学者和教育工作者。这些人的参与对实地的健康至关重要，这直接影响并造福于我们社会的共同未来。来自代表性不足群体的学生和个人不仅将成为保护古生物学这一日益增长的学科的未来，而且他们通常拥有新的方法和使用新的应用。会议的注册费往往很贵，许多学生难以负担。通过支付他们的注册费，使学生更容易参加会议。这一奖项反映了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。

Non-Technical Description: This proposal covers the cost of student registration fees for the Conservation Paleobiology Symposium in Gainesville, Florida in February 2023. This academic conference is run by the Conservation Paleobiology Network, an NSF-funded network with over 650 members from 44 countries based out of the Florida Museum, University of Florida. The potential conference attendees come from all over the world and specialize in a variety of topics such as paleontology, archaeology, conservation science, and historical geology. Participants will include people from universities, government agencies, and non-profit organizations. This conference will provide a way of connecting specialists who would not otherwise have a chance to meet and exchange ideas. By funding student registration fees, this proposal will help to attract and engage students, particularly those from historically underrepresented groups, thus nurturing the next generation of scholars and educators. The participation of students is important for science and society. Not only will these individuals be the future of the growing discipline of conservation paleobiology, but they often have new approaches and apply the science in new and important ways. Fees for conferences are often expensive and difficult for many students to afford. By covering their registration fees, the conference is made more accessible to students.Technical Description:This proposal covers the cost of student registration fees for the Conservation Paleobiology Symposium in Gainesville, Florida from February 16 to February 19, 2023. This academic conference is organized by the Conservation Paleobiology Network, an NSF-funded network with over 650 members from 44 countries based out of the Florida Museum, University of Florida. The potential conference attendees are geographically, disciplinarily, and professionally diverse, and include people from academic institutions, state and federal governmental institutions, and non-profit organizations. The sub-disciplines of potential attendees include, but are not limited to, paleontology, archaeology, conservation science, and historical geology. This conference will provide a venue for cross-disciplinary specialists who would not otherwise have opportunities to meet and exchange ideas. By funding student registration fees, this proposal will facilitate our efforts to attract and engage students, particularly those from historically underrepresented groups, thus nurturing the next generation of scholars and educators. The participation of these individuals is critical to the health of the field, which directly impacts and benefits the shared future of our society. Not only will students and individuals from underrepresented groups be the future of the growing discipline of conservation paleobiology, but they commonly have new approaches and use novel applications. Registration fees for conferences are often expensive and difficult for many students to afford. By covering their registration fees, the conference is made more accessible to students.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.
