zrontiers of Science Symposium

该奖项为国家科学院科学前沿专题讨论会提供部分支持。研讨会的目的是促进不同学科的年轻科研人员之间的思想交流。特别值得一提的是，研讨会旨在让杰出的年轻科学家接触到目前在他们自己以外的领域正在进行的前沿研究，并让参与者了解不同领域研究的价值和潜在益处。此外，这些讨论将把一个领域的方法和仪器使用的信息传递给其他领域的科学家。

This award provides partial support to the National Academy of Sciences for the Frontiers of Science Symposia. The purpose of the symposia are to promote the exchange of ideas among young scientific researchers in disparate disciplines. In particular, the symposia are intended to give outstanding young scientists exposure to frontiers research currently under way in areas other than their own with the idea of providing the participants an appreciation of the value and potential benefits of research in different fields to their own work. Also, these discussions would transmit information about methods and instrumentation use in one field to scientists in other fields.
