DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal seeks support for travel awards for eight graduate students and postdocs (with at least five reserved for minorities/underrepresented groups) to attend the Telluride Science Research Center meeting (TSRC) on "Frontiers in BioMagnetic Particles III," Telluride, CO June 2-5, 2013. These travel awards will greatly encourage diverse participation and networking in this highly interdisciplinary and rapidly growing field. Magnetic particles are an enabling technology for a wide variety of biomedical and functional materials research relevant to biomedical imaging, and cancer therapy and detection applications. Magnetic particles provide a unique handle to manipulate and sense nanostructures. Applications include magnetically guided drug delivery, magnetic hyperthermia, cell separations, and biomedical imaging via Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI), and magnetophoretic optical coherence tomography contrast agents. Because this field benefits especially well from cross-fertilization of ideas from chemistry, biology, physics, and engineering, is our goal to create a technical and social environment in which participants from diverse disciplines can discuss trends in research and form collaborations. In order to encourage discussion, we have scheduled 30 minute panels of speakers at the end of each of seven sessions. To make sure women and unrepresented minorities are active participants in this discussion, we will have at least 50% women and minorities as session chairs leading these discussions. The symposium builds upon a successful smaller symposium hosted by the PIs two years ago at Charleston, SC and in Clemson, SC two years prior. The scientific symposium will take place June 2-5 in Telluride, CO under the umbrella of the Telluride Science Research Center. The event is being co-organized by Drs. Jeffrey Anker and Thompson Mefford. Both are young faculty members at Clemson and are very eager to build lasting, sustainable partnerships with national and international collaborators.

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案旨在为八名研究生和博士后（至少有五名为少数民族/代表性不足的群体保留）提供旅行奖励，以参加2013年6月2日至5日在Telluride举行的Telluride科学研究中心会议（TSRC）。这些旅行奖将极大地鼓励在这个高度跨学科的多元化参与和网络 快速增长的领域。磁性粒子是一种使能技术，用于与生物医学成像、癌症治疗和检测应用相关的各种生物医学和功能材料研究。磁性颗粒提供了一种独特的处理来操纵和感测纳米结构。应用包括磁引导药物递送、磁热疗、细胞分离和通过磁共振成像（MRI）、磁粒子成像（MPI）和磁泳光学相干断层扫描造影剂的生物医学成像。因为这一领域受益于化学，生物学，物理学和工程学的思想交叉，我们的目标是创造一个技术和社会环境，让来自不同学科的参与者可以讨论研究趋势并形成合作。为了鼓励讨论，我们安排了30分钟的小组发言者在七个会议的每一个结束。为了确保妇女和没有代表的少数民族积极参与这一讨论，我们将至少有50%的妇女和少数民族担任会议主席，领导这些讨论。研讨会是在两年前在南卡罗来纳州查尔斯顿和两年前在南卡罗来纳州克莱姆森举行的一次成功的小型研讨会的基础上举行的。科学研讨会将于6月2日至5日在碲化物科学研究中心的主持下在科罗拉多州碲化物举行。该活动由Jeffrey Anker博士和Thompson Mefford博士共同组织。两人都是克莱姆森的年轻教员，非常渴望与国内和国际合作者建立持久、可持续的伙伴关系。
