Third German-American Frontiers of Science Symposium

该提案请求支持将于1997年6月19-22日在德国慕尼黑举行的第三届德美科学前沿研讨会(GAFOS)。Gafos由德美学术委员会(GAAC)(由德国总理科尔和比尔·克林顿总统于1993年3月26日创立)主办，旨在汇聚来自德国和美国的最优秀的年轻研究人员，听取讲座并就科学和工程领域的前沿问题以及未来可能的发展进行讨论。研讨会不仅将两国的研究人员聚集在一起，而且还将来自不同学科的研究人员聚集在一起，以期能够将解决问题的技术从一个领域应用到其他领域。

This proposal requests support for the third annual German-American Frontiers of Science Symposium (GAFOS) to be held in Munich, Germany, June 19-22, 1997. Sponsored by the German-American Academic Council (GAAC) (founded March 26, 1993 by German Chancellor Helmut Kohl and President Bill Clinton), the GAFOS is designed to bring together the best young researchers from Germany and the United States to hear lectures and engage in discussions on cutting edge issues in science and engineering, and possible future development. The Symposia bring not only bring together researchers from the two countries, but also researchers form different disciplines in the expectation of being able to apply techniques of problem solving from one field to other fields.
