Conference: Rocky Mountain Geobiology Symposium 2024AbstractThe Rocky Mountain Geobiology Symposium (RMGS) is a geobiology conference focused on early career scientists in the Rocky Mountain region. This annual event has been an invaluable educational and networking resource for geobiologists from over 20 institutions, including academia and industry. We are excited to continue to support the Rocky Mountain geobiology community by hosting a sixth RMGS in April, 2024. We have three primary goals for this next RMGS, all with a focus on early-career geobiologists. First, to continue to build and connect the geobiology network across the Rocky Mountain region, and grow participation from institutions in the middle Rio Grande corridor. Second, to provide an opportunity for early-career geobiologists to showcase their work and receive feedback from their community. Third, to facilitate conversations between academics, industry professionals, and researchers.The 6th RMGS will be held at the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (“New Mexico Tech” or NMT) on April 20th, 2024, and will be free to attend. NMT is a public teaching and research university located in Socorro, NM, a town of approximately 9,000 that is 75 miles south of Albuquerque. It is a tradition for this symposium to be student-organized, and our organizing committee consists of graduate and undergraduate students from New Mexico Tech’s Biology and Earth and Environmental Science Departments. Our primary goals are to continue to build and grow participation from the region, highlight and provide opportunities for early-career geobiologists, and create networking opportunities among academics, industry professionals, and government researchers. In-line with the symposium’s emphasis on early-career scientists, all talks and most posters will be given by students and postdoctoral researchers, with the exception of the keynote speakers. We have invited three keynote speakers from institutions outside of the Rocky Mountain region to present their research with attendees with the goal of showcasing the variety of topics and research opportunities encompassed by the field of geobiology. We anticipate participation from academics and industry professionals, including attendees and presenters from Los Alamos National Lab (LANL) and Sandia National Lab (SNL), and hope to foster new research collaborations as well as graduate school and postdoctoral opportunities.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.

会议：落基山地球生物学研讨会2024年摘要落基山地球生物学研讨会(RMGS)是一个地球生物学会议，重点关注落基山地区早期职业科学家。这项一年一度的活动为来自20多个机构的地球生物学家提供了宝贵的教育和网络资源，其中包括学术界和工业界。我们很高兴能继续支持落基山脉地球生物界，在2024年4月主办第六届RMGS。我们为下一个RMGS设定了三个主要目标，所有目标都集中在职业生涯早期的地质生物学家身上。第一，继续建设和连接整个落基山脉地区的地球生物学网络，并扩大格兰德走廊中部机构的参与。第二，为初出茅庐的地球生物学家提供一个展示他们的工作并从他们的社区获得反馈的机会。第三，促进学者、行业专业人士和研究人员之间的对话。第六届RMGS将于2024年4月20日在新墨西哥州矿业与技术学院(简称NMT)举行，并将免费参加。NMT是一所公立教学和研究大学，位于新墨西哥州索科罗市，该镇人口约9000，位于阿尔伯克基以南75英里处。这次研讨会是由学生组织的传统，我们的组织委员会由新墨西哥理工大学生物学、地球和环境科学系的研究生和本科生组成。我们的主要目标是继续建立和扩大该地区的参与，突出并为早期职业地球生物学家提供机会，并在学者、行业专业人员和政府研究人员之间创造网络机会。与研讨会对早期科学家的强调一致，所有演讲和大多数海报都将由学生和博士后研究人员进行，主旨演讲者除外。我们邀请了三位来自落基山脉地区以外机构的主旨演讲者向与会者展示他们的研究，目的是展示地球生物学领域包含的各种主题和研究机会。我们期待学者和行业专业人士的参与，包括来自洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室(LANL)和桑迪亚国家实验室(SNL)的与会者和演讲者，并希望促进新的研究合作以及研究生和博士后机会。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。
