Abstract The purpose of this conference travel grant proposal is to secure funds to facilitate undergraduate student involvement in the biennial International Conference on Infant Studies, with a particular focus on students from underrepresented groups. Meetings are held every two years in spring or summer, both in U.S. and international locations. Undergraduates play a large role in infant research, and the goal of this initiative is to provide support for them to attend the conferences and thus inspire them to pursue a career in STEM. From previously NICHD funded R13 initiatives, we have evidence that such attendance encourages students to pursue developmental science in graduate school or other allied disciplines. Moreover, it allows students to see the central role of science in the study of development. The future success of the field of infancy research depends on diversity of researchers, participants, and questions. This initiative dovetails nicely with national efforts to engage ethnic and racial minority undergraduate students in science and to encourage their continued engagement following graduation. This initiative also aligns with the efforts of the International Congress on Infant Studies (ICIS), the organization that sponsors the biennial conferences. Promotion of undergraduate research experiences will result in the next generation of diverse infancy researchers. This proposal seeks to support student travel to the next three conferences – 2024, 2026, and 2028 – with $20,000 per conference (total request is $60,00). This funding rate should offset travel expenses for 20 undergraduates per meeting. In addition to learning about the latest research in infancy science, undergraduates will receive pre-conference support to prepare for the experience, an introductory session at the conference focused on making the most of their time at the conference and conference etiquette, networking opportunities for undergraduates to learn about graduate school and post-college employment, and a post- conference debrief. Finally, both short-term (immediately following the conference) and longer- term assessments (up to 6 years later) will evaluate outcomes.

摘要 本次会议差旅补助金提案的目的是确保资金， 本科生参与两年一度的婴儿研究国际会议， 特别关注代表性不足群体的学生。会议每两个月举行一次 无论是在美国还是在其他国家，我们都可以在春季或夏季提供服务。本科生扮演一个 在婴儿研究中发挥着重要作用，这项倡议的目标是为他们参加 会议，从而激励他们追求在干的职业生涯。从以前的NICHD 我们资助了R13计划，有证据表明这种出勤率鼓励学生追求 研究生院或其他相关学科的发展科学。此外，它允许 让学生看到科学在发展研究中的核心作用。未来的成功 婴儿研究领域取决于研究人员、参与者和问题的多样性。 这一举措与国家努力让少数民族和种族参与进来的做法相吻合 本科生在科学，并鼓励他们继续参与以下 毕业典礼这一举措也与国际婴儿保健大会的努力相一致， 主办两年期会议的组织。促进 本科生的研究经验将导致下一代多样化的婴儿期 研究人员该提案旨在支持学生前往未来三个会议- 2024年、2026年和2028年-每次会议20，000美元（总申请额为60，00美元）。这一融资率 应抵消每次会议20名本科生的旅费。除了了解 在婴儿科学的最新研究，本科生将获得会前支持， 为经验做准备，会议上的介绍性会议侧重于使 他们大部分时间在会议和会议礼仪，网络的机会， 本科生了解研究生院和大学毕业后的就业，以及一个后， 会议汇报最后，无论是短期（会议后立即）还是长期- 定期评估（最多6年后）将评估结果。
