Seventh Latin American Symposium in Surface Physics; Bariloche, Argentina; Nov 15-20, 1992

这项发展中国家科学奖将资助14名美国与会者参加将于1992年11月15日至20日在阿根廷巴里洛切举行的第七届拉丁美洲表面物理学研讨会（SLAFS-7）。专题讨论会的目的是作为交流关于美洲固体表面和有关领域目前发展情况的信息的论坛；促进拉丁美洲、美国、加拿大和欧洲研究人员之间的合作研究；加强拉丁美洲的科学基础。由于拉丁美洲正在进行表面科学的纯方面和应用方面的研究，并且由于表面物理学与相关技术领域重叠，研讨会将与第一届伊比利亚-美洲表面科学与应用大会同时举行。对美国和拉丁美洲参与者的好处包括发展未来的南北研究关系。

This Science in Developing Countries award will support the travel of 14 U.S. participants in the Seventh Latin American Symposium on Surface Physics (SLAFS-7), to be held in Bariloche, Argentina, November 15-20, 1992. The Symposium aims to serve as a forum for an exchange of information on current developments within the Americas in solid surfaces and related fields; stimulate collaborative research among researchers from Latin America, the United States, Canada, and Europe; and strengthen the scientific base of Latin America. Because research on both pure and applied aspects of surface science is being conducted in Latin America, and because surface physics overlaps with associated technology areas, the Symposium will be held in conjunction with the First Ibero-American Congress on Surface Science and Applications. Benefits to both U.S. and Latin American participants include the development of future North-South research ties.
