Non-Technical SummaryThe 2023 Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Nanoporous Materials and Their Applications: Expanding the Horizons of Porous Materials Design and Applications, and the associated Gordon Research Seminar (GRS): Leveraging Order and Disorder in Nanoporous Materials are being held at Proctor Academy (Andover, New Hampshire) from August 2-8, 2023. The combined GRC/GRS will support registration expenses for approximately 26 student and postdoc attendees from U.S. institutions to focus on new developments in the field of nanoporous materials, including novel materials and their potential application to a wide range of commercial technologies in areas as diverse as chemical manufacturing, petroleum and natural gas refining, electronic materials, and medical applications. Student and postdoc participants will also benefit from interactions with senior leaders in the field and related networking activities designed to highlight career opportunities related to nanoporous material technologies. NSF's Solid State and Materials Chemistry Program in the Division of Materials Research supports stipends for registration fee and/or travel support for some early-career participants at this conference because of its relevance to their respective programmatic scope.Technical SummaryThe Nanoporous Materials and Their Applications GRC/GRS will focus on new developments in the field of nanoporous materials. Porous materials, such as zeolites, metal-organic frameworks, covalent-organic frameworks, porous carbon, and related materials, are heavily utilized in today’s most dynamic and diversified research fields. The conference, with support from NSF's Solid State and Materials Chemistry Program in the Division of Materials Research, addresses important new findings related to the invention of novel materials, characterization of their unique properties, and the use of these materials in emerging applications involving catalysis, separations, gas storage, and other processes of commercial and environmental importance. The program addresses these topics through invited lectures, poster presentations, and general discussion focused on linking fundamental understanding to potential applications. Emphasis will be placed on intermingling different classes of nanoporous materials. The program also balances theoretical and experimental approaches to addressing questions related to structure and applicability. Beyond the technological aspects, the conference seeks to gather leading and emerging scientists in this field and bring them together to share ideas and foster new collaborations. With respect to this larger goal, the GRC seeks to provide a common language for our diverse student body; to raise the comfort-level of our student/postdoc participants; and, through these efforts, to develop a tightly-woven community held together by a common interest in nanoporous materials. The accompanying GRS that is dedicated to and organized by graduate students and postdoctoral researchers will aid in the active participation of this new generation of scientists. The collegial, retreat-like atmosphere of the conference, with exciting invited lectures, which are complemented by lively poster sessions, as well as communal dinners, opportunities for informal gatherings, and mentoring panels, provides a venue for scientists from different disciplines to brainstorm together and promotes cross-disciplinary collaborations in the various research areas represented. Additional efforts have been made by the organizers to encourage the participation of underrepresented minorities and women. At this meeting, 32% of the invited speakers and discussion leaders are women. In addition, an informal power hour focusing on the career development of women in science will be included.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.

2023年戈登纳米多孔材料及其应用研究会议（GRC）：扩展多孔材料设计和应用的视野，以及相关的戈登研究研讨会（GRS）：利用纳米多孔材料的有序和无序将于2023年8月2日至8日在普罗克特学院（安多弗，新罕布什尔州）举行。联合GRC/GRS将支持来自美国机构的约26名学生和博士后与会者的注册费用，以关注纳米多孔材料领域的新发展，包括新型材料及其在化学制造、石油和天然气精炼、电子材料和医疗应用等领域的广泛商业技术的潜在应用。学生和博士后参与者也将受益于与该领域的高级领导人的互动和相关的网络活动，这些活动旨在突出与纳米多孔材料技术相关的职业机会。美国国家科学基金会材料研究部的固态和材料化学项目为参加本次会议的一些早期职业参与者提供注册费和/或旅费支持，因为它与他们各自的项目范围相关。技术综述纳米多孔材料及其应用GRC/GRS将重点介绍纳米多孔材料领域的新进展。多孔材料，如沸石、金属有机框架、共价有机框架、多孔碳及相关材料，在当今最具活力和多样化的研究领域中得到了大量应用。会议由美国国家科学基金会材料研究部固态和材料化学项目支持，讨论了与新材料的发明、其独特性质的表征以及这些材料在催化、分离、气体储存和其他商业和环境重要性过程中的新兴应用有关的重要新发现。该计划通过邀请讲座，海报展示和一般性讨论来解决这些主题，重点是将基本理解与潜在应用联系起来。重点将放在混合不同类别的纳米多孔材料。该计划还平衡了理论和实验方法来解决与结构和适用性相关的问题。除了技术方面，会议还寻求聚集该领域的领先和新兴科学家，并将他们聚集在一起分享想法并促进新的合作。为了实现这一更大的目标，GRC力求为我们多样化的学生群体提供一种共同的语言；提高我们的学生/博士后参与者的舒适度；并且，通过这些努力，发展一个紧密编织的社区，共同对纳米多孔材料感兴趣。由研究生和博士后研究人员专门组织的GRS将有助于新一代科学家的积极参与。会议的学院式、静修式的氛围，令人兴奋的受邀演讲，辅以生动的海报会议，以及公共晚餐、非正式聚会的机会和指导小组，为来自不同学科的科学家提供了一个集思广益的场所，促进了不同研究领域的跨学科合作。组织者还作出了更多努力，鼓励代表性不足的少数民族和妇女参加会议。在这次会议上，32%的受邀演讲者和讨论主持人是女性。此外，还将包括一个非正式的权力时间，重点关注妇女在科学领域的职业发展。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。
