Travel: Symposium on Science and Technology Driving the Bioeconomy 2023

作为美国农业部S-1075多州委员会会议的一部分，该奖项部分支持2023年生物经济利益相关者观点研讨会。生物基经济有潜力以环境可持续的方式生产生物燃料和生物产品。这个由来自35所赠地大学的研究人员组成的联盟致力于解决生物经济的障碍，包括原料物流和转化技术方面的挑战。S-1045多州委员会的年度会议召开，以协调和分享来自全国各地赠地大学的研究。来自资助机构的主要研究人员和演讲者组织研讨会，分享最新的研究知识并协调未来的研究。2023 S-1075多州委员会年度研讨会将在内布拉斯加大学林肯分校举行。会议计划于2023年7月13日至14日举行。2023年研讨会的目标是了解试图将生物能源和生物产品技术商业化时面临的关键挑战。美国国家科学基金会的资金将用于支持研究生参加本次研讨会，并与来自大约35个赠地机构的研究人员会面。在这个会议上，学生们可以与生物经济的整个部门进行互动，包括研究人员、生产者、加工商、金融部门和政府机构。这将有助于下一代劳动力适应生物经济中的挑战和机遇。专题讨论会的会议记录将由S-1045成员出版并广泛分发给感兴趣的听众。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。

This award is partial support of the 2023 Symposium on Stakeholders Perspective on the Bioeconomy as part of the meeting of the USDA S-1075 Multistate Committee. The biobased economy has potential to produce biofuels and bioproducts in an environmentally sustainable way. This consortia of researchers from 35 land grant universities address barriers to a bioeconomy including challenges in feedstock logistics and conversion technologies. Annual meetings of the S-1045 multistate committee are held to coordinate and share research from land grant universities across the nation. Symposiums are organized with leading researchers and speakers from funding agencies to share the latest research knowledge and coordinate future research. The 2023 S-1075 Multistate Committee annual symposium will be held at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. The meeting is planned to occur on July 13-14, 2023. The goal of the 2023 symposium is to develop an understanding of the key challenges when trying to commercialize bioenergy and bioproduct technologies. NSF funding will be used to support graduate students to attend this symposium and to meet with member researchers from approximately 35 land grant institutions. This is a meeting where the students can interact with the entire sector of the bioeconomy including researchers, producers, processors, financial sector, and government agencies. This will help in orienting the next workforce generation to challenges and opportunities in the bioeconomy. The proceedings from the symposium will be published and distributed widely to interested audience by S-1045 members.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.
