This award provides participant support for attendees of the International Conference and Workshop on MXenes: Changing the World to be held at Drexel University in Philadelphia, PA, USA, from August 5-7, 2024. The workshop focuses on the latest research and development activities in MXenes, a relatively novel 2D nanomaterial. Through oral and poster sessions, selected students, faculty, and prominent researchers present their latest research results in the areas of materials science, materials chemistry, materials processing, and advanced manufacturing of MXenes. To ensure diversity in participation at the conference, priority is given to women and underrepresented minority students. This award benefits the nation through the education of a skilled nanomaterials and manufacturing workforce, which is better prepared to provide transformative solutions to the challenges in their chosen fields. The conference plays a significant role in supporting and sustaining the important field of MXenes, a technology that is pervasive and impacts all industrial sectors with benefits to society. This conference is timely because of strong interest in the U.S in fostering the research and development of this family of technologically important novel nanomaterials that exhibit many useful and unique properties and potentially useful applications.This participant support is expected to benefit the students' professional, scientific, and technical development. Attendance at the conference gives the students a broader view of nanomaterials chemistry, ceramics, advanced manufacturing, their fundamentals, and applications. Workshop topics include contextualization of major MXene discoveries, identification of basic research areas, diversified education in novel 2D nanomaterials, and promotion of technological potential. Attendees learn about state-of-the-art research in their technical areas via access to several technical and professional development talks by leading domestic and international speakers. The broader impact activities include education outreach, knowledge transfer and skill development, diversity, equity and inclusion, industrial collaboration, global collaboration and leadership, and public engagement. Students enhance their communication skills through oral and poster presentations and in-depth discussions of their work with peers in their technical areas. This interactive experience significantly broadens student education, increases their enthusiasm for their research topic, acquaints them with expectations for scientific careers, and exposes them to novel approaches for innovative research. The conference also offers a foundational course on MXene synthesis.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.

该奖项为MXenes国际会议和研讨会的与会者提供支持：改变世界将于2024年8月5日至7日在美国宾夕法尼亚州费城的德雷克塞尔大学举行。研讨会重点关注MXenes的最新研发活动，MXenes是一种相对新颖的2D纳米材料。通过口头和海报会议，选定的学生，教师和杰出的研究人员介绍他们在材料科学，材料化学，材料加工和先进制造MXene领域的最新研究成果。为确保参加会议的多样性，优先考虑妇女和代表人数不足的少数民族学生。该奖项通过对熟练的纳米材料和制造业劳动力的教育使国家受益，这些劳动力更好地准备为他们所选择的领域的挑战提供变革性的解决方案。会议在支持和维持MXenes这一重要领域方面发挥了重要作用，MXenes是一项普遍存在的技术，对所有工业部门都有影响，对社会有益。这次会议是及时的，因为在美国的强烈兴趣，在促进研究和开发的这一系列技术重要的新型纳米材料，表现出许多有用的和独特的性能和潜在的有用的应用。这参与者的支持，预计将有利于学生的专业，科学和技术的发展。出席会议给学生纳米材料化学，陶瓷，先进制造，其基础和应用更广泛的视野。研讨会的主题包括MXene重大发现的背景化，基础研究领域的确定，新型2D纳米材料的多样化教育以及技术潜力的提升。与会者通过参加国内和国际领先演讲者的几次技术和专业发展讲座，了解其技术领域的最新研究。更广泛的影响活动包括教育推广、知识转让和技能发展、多样性、公平和包容、工业合作、全球合作和领导以及公众参与。学生通过口头和海报演示以及与技术领域的同行深入讨论他们的工作来提高他们的沟通能力。这种互动的体验大大拓宽了学生的教育，提高了他们对研究课题的热情，使他们对科学事业充满期待，并使他们接触到创新研究的新方法。该奖项反映了NSF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。
