The Second U.S.-Korea Forum on Nanotechnology: Nanomanufacturing Research and Education

0505868 jhon该奖项支持美国参加将于2005年初在美国举行的第二届美韩纳米技术论坛。会议由卡内基梅隆大学的Myung Jhon博士和韩国国家太级纳米器件项目主任Jo-Won Lee博士共同组织。首届论坛于2003年在首尔举行。它涵盖了纳米技术的广泛研究课题，并得到了极大的好评。第二项指标对于评估第一届论坛期间所取得的成就和提出的建议至关重要。它将为来自两国的科学家和研究人员提供一个共同的平台来建立在纳米技术发展方面的伙伴关系，特别侧重于纳米制造，从而补充第一届论坛。大约一半的美国与会者将是资深调查员，他们将作报告；其他人将是职业生涯初期的科学家和工程师。韩国主持人的人数将大致相同。报告将包括纳米制造研究、教育计划发展、合作机制和人员交流计划。论坛的会议记录和调查结果将以CD和卡耐基梅隆大学网站的形式出版，并将向广大读者提供。本论坛将促进两国在纳米技术关键领域的研究和政策交流。这里的新贡献是关注纳米制造研究和纳米技术教育计划的发展，这变得越来越重要。更广泛的影响论坛的目的不仅是促进工业-学术伙伴关系，而且通过为较低水平的科学教育提供一个新的维度，对教育（包括K到12）产生重大影响。论坛将导致纳米制造研究的信息和经验的分享，以及以纳米技术为重点的教育项目的发展。它将鼓励和促进两国工业、政府和学术界之间的合作研究计划。

0505868JHONThis award supports US participation in a second Forum on Nanotechnology between the United States and Korea, to be held in the U.S. in early 2005. The meeting is co-organized by Dr. Myung Jhon of Carnegie Mellon University and Dr. Jo-Won Lee, Director of the Korean National Program for Tera-Level Nanodevices. The First Forum was held in Seoul during 2003. It covered a broad range of research topics in nanotechnology, and was extremely well received. The second is critical to assessing the achievements and recommendations made during the first Forum. It will complement the first Forum by providing a common platform for scientists and researchers from both countries to establish partnerships in nanotechnology development, focusing specifically on nanomanufacturing. Approximately half of the U.S. participants will be established senior investigators who will make presentations; the others will be early-career scientists and engineers. A roughly equal number of Korean presenters will participate. The presentations will include examinations of nanomanufacturing research, educational program development, mechanisms for cooperation, and plans for exchanging personnel. The Forum proceedings and findings will be published both on CD and on Carnegie Mellon's website and will be available to a broad audience.Intellectual MeritsThis Forum will promote the exchange of research and policy between the two countries in key areas of nanotechnology. The novel contribution here is the focus on nanomanufacturing research and the development of educational programs in nanotechnology, which is becoming increasingly important.Broader ImpactsThe purpose of the Forum is to promote not only industrial-academic partnerships, but also to have a high impact on education, including K through 12, by providing a new dimension to the lower-level science education. The Forum will result in the sharing of information and experiences in nanomanufacturing research and the development of educational programs focusing on nanotechnology. It will encourage and facilitate collaborative research initiatives between industry, government, and academia in the two countries.
