Nicole N.Alexander和Alan S.KolokProposal#0827158标题：学生旅行到国际鱼类生物学大会。该项目的目的是为参加2008年7月28日至8月1日在俄勒冈州波特兰举行的第七届国际鱼类生物学大会的研究生和博士后研究员提供旅行支持。这次大会的范围是国际性的，预计将吸引来自全球各地的约300名著名鱼类生理学家。将在竞争的基础上向研究生和博士后研究员提供旅行资金，并特别考虑来自代表性不足人口的美国公民。对于获奖者来说，出席会议将为他们提供一个介绍独立研究的机会，了解鱼类生理领域的最新国际科学发展，并与同事和潜在导师建立网络。

Nicole N. Alexander and Alan S. KolokProposal # 0827158Title: Student travel to the International Congress on the Biology of Fishes. The purpose of this project is to provide graduate students and postdoctoral fellows support for travel to the VIIIth International Congress on the Biology of Fishes, to be held in Portland, Oregon from July 28-August 1, 2008. The Congress is international in scope and is expected to draw approximately 300 prominent fish physiologists from around the globe. Travel funds will be offered to graduate students and postdoctoral fellows on a competitive basis, with special consideration being given to US citizens from underrepresented populations. For the awardees, attendance at the meeting will provide them with an opportunity to present independent research, learn about the latest international scientific developments within the field of fish physiology and network with colleagues and potential mentors.
