Travel Awards for Undergraduate Research in Polymer Science Symposium ACS National Meeting, March 22-26, 2009, Salt Lake City, UT

技术摘要：本次研讨会将在2009年春季全国ACS会议上举行，届时将有高分子科学与工程领域的本科研究人员发表演讲。它将涵盖该领域的所有前沿领域，并提供交流最新成果的机会。会议的主题是？纳米科学：未来的挑战。会谈将突出这一重要和非常广泛领域的所有领域。大学生有机会在重要的科学会议上展示他们的研究成果，不仅对他们获得认可和专业知识有很大的价值，而且尤其可能激励他们从事科学和技术事业。这次研讨会，完全聚焦于高分子科学的本科研究，将提供这样一个机会。这些讲座也将启发其他本科生，帮助他们发展自己的实验室和研究兴趣。将鼓励主要来自本科院校和服务不足人群的参与。

TECHNICAL ABSTRACTThis symposium will take place at the 2009 Spring National ACS Meeting and will involve presentations by undergraduate researchers in polymer science and engineering. It will cover all forefront areas in the field and provide an opportunity for exchange of latest results. The theme of the ACS Meeting is ?Nanoscience: challenges for the future.? The talks will highlight all areas in this important and very broad field. NON-TECHNICAL ABSTRACTThe opportunity for undergraduate students to present their research results at a major scientific conference can be of great value to them in both gaining recognition and expertise, but especially in possibly stimulating them toward careers in science and technology. This symposium, focused entirely on undergraduate research in polymer science, will provide such an opportunity. These talks will also be an inspiration to other undergraduate students and help them develop their laboratory and research interests. Participation from primarily undergraduate institutions and underserved populations will be encouraged.
