U.S.-Italy Cooperative Research: Workshop on Organic Chemistry on Metal Clusters and Surfaces, Castello, Santa Vittoria d'Alba, Italy, July 1992

该奖项将为一个关于有机分子在分子金属簇和金属表面上的转化的研讨会提供部分支持。目的是建立簇化学和表面化学之间的联系。这次活动将在意大利举行，其协调人是北岭加州州立大学基金会的爱德华·罗森伯格和意大利都灵大学的卢西亚诺·米隆。研讨会将汇集两个相关和重要研究领域的顶尖科学家，这两个领域在化学方面有许多共同的特点，但通常采用截然不同的方法进行研究。通过将两个学科的科学家聚集在一起讨论他们的最新研究成果，这些领域的共同概念、原理和问题将得到更充分的揭示。反过来，这应该会导致更好地理解所涉及的化学，并为未来的研究激发新的想法和方向。由于意大利传统上是簇化学的卓越中心，而美国在表面科学方面具有特别的优势，因此联合研讨会汇集了两国互补的专业知识。

This award will provide partial support for a workshop regarding transformations of organic molecules on molecular metal clusters and on metal surfaces. The objective is to establish connections between cluster and surface chemistry. The coordinators for the event, to be held in Italy, are Edward Rosenberg, of the California State University Foundation, Northridge, and Luciano Milone, of the University of Turin in Italy. The workshop will bring together leading scientists involved in two related and important areas of research that have many features of their chemistry in common, but which are generally investigated by significantly different methodologies. By bringing together scientists from the two disciplines to discuss their latest research findings, the concepts, principles, and problems that these areas have in common will be more fully revealed. This, in turn, should lead to a better understanding of the chemistry involved and stimulate new ideas and directions for future research. Because Italy has traditionally been a center of excellence in cluster chemistry, and the US has particular strengths in surface science, the joint workshop brings together complementary expertise from the two countries.
