DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of this application is to seek support for the Gordon Research Conference (GRC) and Seminar (GRS) on Bioinspired Materials to be held June 21-27, 2014 at Sunday River Resort, Newry, ME, USA. The emerging, interdisciplinary field of Bioinspired Materials focuses on developing a fundamental understanding of the synthesis, directed self-assembly and hierarchical organization of natural occurring materials, and uses this understanding to engineer new "bioinspired" artificial materials for diverse applications. This conference, chaired by Phillip Messersmith (Northwestern University) and vice-chaired by Timothy Deming (UCLA) will be the second in a series that was born from the twin realizations that: (1) there is an explosion of research in the field of Bioinspired Materials; and yet (2) there is no single and unique venue that solely focuses on the dissemination of research in this field. The objective of the GRC on Bioinspired Materials is to offer a cutting- edge scientific program delivered by a roster of distinguished invited speakers and discussion leaders who will address the key issues in the field and capture the excitement of this burgeoning field. We aim to become the conference of choice for researchers in bioinspired materials. A new feature of this conference will be the first Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on Bioinspired Materials which was conceived and organized by junior researchers and will offer students and postdoctoral fellows the opportunity to convene separately for 1.5 days prior to the GRC. The impacts of this GRC will include the promotion of cross-disciplinary fertilization of new ideas leading to future creation of novel bioinspired materials, and the cultivation of a cohesive community of established and young scientists, underrepresented minority researchers, and junior faculty with prominent senior investigators.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请的目的是寻求对戈登研究会议（GRC）和研讨会（GRS）的支持，该材料将于2014年6月21日至27日在美国纽里市的Sunday River Resort举行。生物启发材料的新兴，跨学科的领域着重于对合成的基本理解，定向自我组装和对自然发生的材料的分层组织，并利用这种理解来设计新的“生物启发的”人工材料，以用于多种应用。这次会议由菲利普·梅塞尔史密斯（Phillip Messersmith）（西北大学）主持，由蒂莫西·戴明（UCLA）副主席将是由双胞胎实现诞生的第二个会议，该系列是：（1）在生物inspired材料领域发生了研究的爆炸；然而（2）没有一个独特的场所仅专注于 关于该领域的研究的传播。 GRC在生物启发材料上的目的是提供由杰出的受邀演讲者和讨论领导者阵容提供的挑战科学计划，他们将解决该领域的关键问题并捕捉这个新兴领域的兴奋。我们的目标是成为生物启发材料研究人员的首选会议。本次会议的一项新功能将是第一个关于生物启发材料的戈登研究研讨会（GRS），该研讨会是由初级研究人员构思和组织的，并将为学生和博士后研究员提供机会在GRC前1.5天单独召集。该GRC的影响将包括促进跨学科施肥的新思想，从而导致未来创造新型生物启发的材料，以及建立一个成熟和年轻科学家的凝聚力社区，代表性的少数族裔研究人员，以及与著名高级研究员的初级教师。
