Most of the world’s pressing environmental problems, including climate change, habitat destruction and biodiversity loss, pollution, and unsustainable water use are the product of interactions between human societies and ecosystems that occur at regional, continental, and global scales. Therefore, we need rigorous and actionable science at these large spatial scales that can be used to inform environmental policy and management. This conference will bring researchers funded by the Macrosystems Biology – NEON Enabled Science (MSB-NES) program together to share their research findings and discuss new efforts to study and address environmental problems across large spatial scales. The conference will also promote training and professional development by offering a series of plenaries on team science; diversity, equity and inclusion; safe and inclusive working environments; and open and transparent science. It will also foster the development of national research talent by offering a venue for early career and senior researchers to interact and network across the broad range of MSB-NES funded projects.This conference will support a meeting of researchers funded by the NSF Macrosystems Biology and Neon Enabled Science (MSB-NES) program. This meeting will build on prior meeting themes of collaboration, inclusive research, and open and transparent science. This meeting will have three primary goals: 1) Providing networking and community-building opportunities among actively funded MSB-NES PIs and researchers. 2) Providing learning opportunities for the community through a series of plenary speakers that will focus on topics fundamental to the macrosystems biology community. And 3) coordinating the production of a Macrosystem Biology special issue in a scientific journal that highlights MSB-NES research and our meeting themes.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.

世界上大多数紧迫的环境问题，包括气候变化、栖息地破坏和生物多样性丧失、污染和不可持续的用水，都是发生在区域、大陆和全球范围内的人类社会和生态系统相互作用的产物。因此，我们需要在这些大空间尺度上的严谨和可操作的科学，可以用来为环境政策和管理提供信息。这次会议将把由大系统生物学-霓虹使能科学(MSB-NES)计划资助的研究人员聚集在一起，分享他们的研究成果，并讨论在大空间尺度上研究和解决环境问题的新努力。会议还将举办一系列关于团队科学、多样性、公平和包容、安全和包容的工作环境以及公开和透明的科学的全会，以促进培训和专业发展。它还将通过为早期职业和高级研究人员提供一个场所，在MSB-NES资助的广泛项目中进行互动和网络交流，促进国家研究人才的发展。这次会议将支持由NSF大系统生物学和霓虹灯使能科学(MSB-NES)计划资助的研究人员会议。本次会议将以前一次会议的合作、包容性研究以及开放和透明的科学为主题。这次会议将有三个主要目标：1)在积极资助的MSB-NES私营部门和研究人员之间提供联网和社区建设机会。2)通过一系列全体演讲者为社区提供学习机会，这些演讲者将集中讨论大系统生物学社区的基本主题。以及3)在科学期刊上协调大系统生物学特刊的制作，突出MSB-NES的研究和我们的会议主题。该奖项反映了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。
