Support for the 17th North American Catalysis Society Meeting

提案标题：支持第17届北美催化协会会议提案编号：CTS-0107933主要研究者：以色列Wachs机构：利哈伊大学第17届北美催化协会会议将于6月3日至8日在加拿大多伦多举行。催化学会的这些会议每两年举行一次。 研讨会的主题包括在许多催化领域的最新进展，包括环境催化，天然气转化，催化剂制备，催化剂失活，新的催化工艺，催化剂，选择性氧化和氢化，聚合和均相催化，沸石，多相有机合成，以及制药和精细化工生产。这项提议的目的是支付出席会议的费用，特别是研究生和年轻调查人员的费用。 在其他来源的共同资助下，将为大约80名研究生提供出席会议的支助。 将特别强调让青年研究人员参加会议。

Proposal Title: Support for the 17th North American Catalysis Society MeetingProposal Number: CTS-0107933Principal Investigator: Israel WachsInstitution: Lehigh UniversityThe 17th North American Meeting of the Catalysis Society will be held June 3-8 in Toronto, Canada. These meetings of the Catalysis Society are held biannually. Symposium topics include recent advances in many areas of catalysis including environmental catalysis, natural gas conversion, catalyst preparation, catalyst deactivation, novel catalytic processes, photocatalysis, selective oxidations and hydrogenations, polymerization and homogeneous catalysis, zeolites, heterogeneous organic synthesis, and pharmaceutical and fine chemical production. The objective of this proposal is to defray costs of meeting attendance, especially for graduate students and young investigators. With co-funding from other sources, support for about 80 graduate students will be provided for meeting attendance. Special emphasis will be placed on bringing young researchers to the meeting.
