Conference: Supporting Students and Early Career Researchers as Participants in the 12th SNO Conference 2023

可持续纳米技术组织会议是一个独特的年度活动，完全致力于促进可持续纳米技术。它汇集了来自世界各地的专家和年轻研究人员。对于2023年，会议有两个主要目标：(1)分享最新的知识；(2)鼓励深入讨论，就纳米技术如何帮助应对21世纪的重要挑战，特别是与环境和人类健康有关的挑战，激发新的想法。会议期间，科学、工程、医学、农业等各领域的7名知名专家将发表主题演讲。会议还将讨论和介绍纳米技术在诸如气候变化、基础设施、能源、传感器、生物经济和农业等热门话题中的作用。为了促进可持续的纳米技术，报告和讨论还将侧重于纳米材料在环境中的行为，以及它们对环境和人类健康的影响。来自不同知识领域的专家之间的思想分享将帮助我们最大限度地利用纳米技术的潜力，同时最大限度地减少任何意想不到的问题。除了将各个领域的专家聚集在一起，会议还为处于职业生涯各个阶段的人们提供了一个平台，从学生到有成就的教授，以及来自学术机构、政府机构和行业的纳米技术利益相关者。正在努力确保在科学、技术、工程和数学领域未被充分代表的群体得到充分代表并积极参与。我们预计将有大约120名学生和有经验的学者参加会议。与会者将交流思想，建立伙伴关系，并表彰该领域领导者的成就。会议组织者的目标是增加对科学和纳米技术的获取，增强科学的多样性，并在可持续纳米技术领域的研究人员和其他利益相关者之间创造一种包容的文化。可持续纳米技术组织会议专门致力于可持续纳米技术，汇集了来自全国各地的专家和年轻研究人员。2023年会议的主要目标是：(1)展示当前的知识；(2)促进深入的知识讨论，就纳米技术如何解决21世纪工程的重大挑战，特别是与环境和人类健康有关的挑战，产生新的想法。来自科学、工程、医学和农业各个领域的杰出和多样化的专家小组将举行七场全体会议。此外，口头技术会议和海报展示将集中讨论纳米技术在诸如气候变化、基础设施、能源、传感器、生物经济和农业等关键主题中的作用。为了促进将可持续性纳入纳米技术的应用，介绍和讨论还将侧重于纳米材料的环境命运、运输和暴露以及人类健康影响。来自不同知识领域的专家的思想交流将继续促进纳米技术潜力的实现，同时最大限度地减少意想不到的后果。除了汇集来自不同领域的专家外，会议还将为各个职业阶段的研究人员提供平台，从本科生到杰出教授，以及来自不同背景的纳米技术爱好者，包括学术界，政府和工业界。正在努力确保会议有科学、技术、工程和数学领域代表性不足的群体的坚实代表和参与。预计将有大约150名学生和更多有经验的学者参加会议，他们将分享想法，发展合作，并表彰该领域领导者的成就。会议组织者的目标是增加对科学和纳米技术的获取，增强科学的多样性，并在可持续纳米技术领域的研究人员和其他利益相关者之间创造一种包容的文化。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。

The Sustainable Nanotechnology Organization Conference is a unique yearly event dedicated entirely to promoting sustainable nanotechnology. It brings together experts and young researchers from around the world. For 2023, the conference has two main goals: (1) to share the latest knowledge and (2) to encourage in-depth discussions that can spark fresh ideas about how nanotechnology can help address important challenges in the 21st century, especially those related to the environment and human health. During the conference, seven prominent experts from various fields, including science, engineering, medicine, and agriculture, will deliver keynote speeches. There will also be discussions and presentations about nanotechnology's role in hot topics like climate change, infrastructure, energy, sensors, the bioeconomy, and agriculture. To promote sustainable nanotechnology, the presentations and discussions will also focus on how nanomaterials behave in the environment, and their impact on the environment and human health. This sharing of ideas among experts from different areas of knowledge will help us make the most of nanotechnology's potential while minimizing any unintended problems. In addition to bringing together experts from various fields, the conference is a platform for people at all stages of their careers, from students to accomplished professors, as well as nanotechnology stakeholders from academic institutions, government agencies, and industry. Efforts are being made to make sure that underrepresented groups in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics are well-represented and participate actively. We expect that around 120 students and experienced scholars will attend the conference. Attendees will exchange ideas, form partnerships, and recognize the achievements of leaders in the field. The conference organizers aim to increase access to science and nanotechnology, enhance diversity in science, and create an inclusive culture among researchers and other stakeholders in the area of sustainable nanotechnology.The Sustainable Nanotechnology Organization Conference is exclusively devoted to sustainable nanotechnology, bringing together experts and young researchers from across the nation. The main objectives of the 2023 conference are to (1) showcase current knowledge, and (2) foster in-depth intellectual discussions that can generate novel ideas on how nanotechnology can address the Grand Challenges for Engineering in the 21st century, particularly those related to the health of the environment and humans. There will be seven plenary talks by an outstanding and diverse group of experts from various fields of science, engineering, medicine, and agriculture. In addition, oral technical sessions and poster presentations will focus on the role of nanotechnology in critical topics such as climate change, infrastructure, energy, sensors, bioeconomy, and agriculture. To promote integration of sustainability in the applications of nanotechnology, presentations and discussions will also focus on environmental fate, transport, and exposure as well as human health impacts of nanomaterials. This exchange of ideas by experts from different fields of knowledge will continue to catalyze the realization of the potential of nanotechnology while minimizing unintended consequences. In addition to bringing together experts from different fields, the conference will provide platforms for researchers at all career stages, from undergraduate students to distinguished professors, and nanotechnology enthusiasts from different backgrounds, including academia, government, and industry. Efforts are being made to ensure the conference has solid representation and participation from underrepresented groups in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The conference is expected to be attended by about 150 students and more experienced scholars, who will share ideas, develop collaborations, and recognize accomplishments of the leaders in the field. The conference organizers aim to increase access to science and nanotechnology, enhance diversity in science, and create an inclusive culture among researchers and other stakeholders in the area of sustainable nanotechnology.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.
