The 2023 micro-Flow and Interfacial Phenomena (µFIP) conference will be mainly held at the Norris Center at Northwestern University in Evanston, IL, from June 18 to 21, 2023. The conference is one of the premier annual events for researchers in fields related to transport phenomena, providing a platform for researchers to exchange information and identify research needs in this emerging area encompassing many engineering, basic sciences, and bio-medical disciplines. The format of the conference places a special emphasis on formal and informal exchanges between junior researchers (students, postdocs, and junior faculty) and established researchers. The scientific objective of µFIP is to bring together the phase change and single-phase heat transfer, single- and multi-phase flow, and bio-chemical and bio-medical engineering communities. In addition, a special emphasis lies on energy applications having components exhibiting microchannel flow or microscale surface phenomena, such as found in droplets, thin films, or bubbles. This year’s conference has expanded the range of topics to be more interdisciplinary and relevant to the most pressing challenges, such as climate change and the water-energy nexus. Therefore, the presenters are from a broad variety of disciplines and institutions. One of the most important broader impact objectives is to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion in the research communities. For this objective, a student networking event that consists of student presentation session and panel to allow for easy interactions between the youngest generation of researchers (graduate and undergraduate students) will be provided. Additionally graduate students will be selected for an opportunity to deliver keynotes as part of the student keynote award in addition to the traditional format of poster sessions. Similarly, faculty at the assistant and associate level to give keynote presentations will be invited, whereas plenary talks are given by established top experts in the field. Furthermore, the goal of gender parity amongst its committee and all invited speakers will be pursued.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年微流和界面现象（µFIP）会议将于2023年6月18日至21日在伊利诺伊州埃文斯顿西北大学诺里斯中心举行。该会议是运输现象相关领域研究人员的主要年度活动之一，为研究人员提供了一个平台，以交流信息并确定这一新兴领域的研究需求，包括许多工程，基础科学和生物医学学科。会议的形式特别强调初级研究人员（学生，博士后和初级教师）和既定研究人员之间的正式和非正式交流。µFIP的科学目标是将相变和单相传热，单相和多相流动以及生物化学和生物医学工程社区结合在一起。此外，一个特别的重点在于能源的应用程序具有表现出微通道流动或微尺度的表面现象，如液滴，薄膜，或气泡中发现的组件。今年的会议扩大了主题范围，使其更具跨学科性，并与气候变化和水-能源关系等最紧迫的挑战相关。因此，演讲者来自广泛的学科和机构。最重要的更广泛的影响目标之一是促进研究界的多样性、公平性和包容性。为了实现这一目标，将提供一个学生网络活动，包括学生演讲和小组讨论，以便于最年轻的一代研究人员（研究生和本科生）之间的互动。此外，研究生将被选为一个机会，提供主题演讲作为学生主题演讲奖的一部分，除了海报会议的传统格式。同样，将邀请助理和助理级别的教师进行主题演讲，而全体会议则由该领域的顶级专家进行。此外，委员会和所有受邀演讲者之间的性别平等目标将被追求。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得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来支持。
