DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal requests partial support for a one-day symposium entitled "Elements in Transition: Are Chemistry and Biochemistry Facing Revolution or Recession?" to be held at the 247th American Chemical Society (ACS) national meeting March 16-20th, 2014 in Dallas, TX. The ACS national meetings routinely draw upwards of 20,000 attendees, due to the numerous and wide variety of technical talks hosted by the many divisions of ACS. These presentations give researchers an opportunity to present their scientific results for peer evaluation, but the scientific system within which such research is conducted is rarely subjected to public assessment and peer review. Therefore, this symposium is designed to assess current and pressing issues in scientific research related to ethics, funding, post-graduate employment, and the impact of technology on publishing in the context of rapid technological growth and economic uncertainty. The symposium will also evaluate the effect that such issues will have on the future of scientific research in health-related fields. This willbe accomplished through informative talks given by a diverse set of experts, with each presentation followed by a brief question and answer (Q&A) session. After all the speakers have addressed their individual topics, a final panel session, where the audience can interact with all of the speakers, is intended to generate an open discussion about the interdependence of these multiple internal and external forces and how the scientific process will ultimately be affected by them. Finally, since many of these issues are potentially polarizing, the symposium day will end with a reception intended to promote informal and relaxed interaction among the attendees and the speakers. At this reception, those who are reluctant to speak in a public forum will have an opportunity to discuss their opinions, and all attendees will be able evaluate the symposium's success through survey.

描述（由申请人提供）：该提案要求对为期一天的题为“过渡中的元素：化学和生物化学面临革命还是衰退？”的研讨会提供部分支持。“将于2014年3月16日至20日在德克萨斯州达拉斯举行的第247届美国化学学会（ACS）全国会议上举行。由于ACS的许多部门主办了大量各种各样的技术会谈，ACS的国家会议通常吸引超过20，000名与会者。这些介绍使研究人员有机会介绍他们的科学成果供同行评价，但进行这种研究的科学系统很少受到公众评估和同行审查。因此，本次研讨会的目的是评估当前和紧迫的问题，在科学研究有关伦理，资金，研究生就业，并在技术快速增长和经济不确定性的背景下，技术对出版的影响。专题讨论会还将评估这些问题对卫生相关领域未来科学研究的影响。这将通过由不同专家提供的信息性演讲来实现，每次演讲后都有一个简短的问答（Q&A）环节。在所有发言者讨论完各自的主题后，最后一次小组会议，观众可以与所有发言者互动，旨在就这些多重内部和外部力量的相互依赖性以及科学过程最终将如何受到影响进行公开讨论。 他们最后，由于这些问题中有许多可能是两极分化的，研讨会当天将以一个招待会结束，旨在促进与会者和发言者之间的非正式和轻松的互动。在这个招待会上，那些不愿意在公共论坛上发言的人将有机会讨论他们的意见，所有与会者将能够通过调查来评估研讨会的成功。
