The 2014 U.S. National Committee for Crystallography Young Observers Program

美国国家结晶学委员会(USNC/Cr)得到了化学部颁发的2014年USNC/Cr青年观察员计划的支持。这将为20名美国早期结晶学家提供旅行奖学金，以参加2014年8月5日至12日在加拿大蒙特利尔举行的第23届IUCR大会。青年观察员将在联合国宣布的国际晶体年2014年期间在国际上分享他们的研究成果。USNC/CR青年观察员计划将追求以下目标：1)支持早期职业的美国结晶学家在2014年IUCR大会上分享他们的研究；2)为美国早期职业科学家和领先的结晶学家之间的互动提供机会；3)为每一位奖学金获得者提供指导经验；4)使获奖者接触到新的结晶学研究领域；5)使获奖者接触到科学政策领域；6)建立一个早期职业和资深美国结晶学家的网络；以及7)促进美国结晶学家与他们的国际同行之间的国际合作。该奖学金计划将使一些可能无法参加大会的早期职业科学家能够通过一个独特的计划参加会议。

The U.S. National Committee for Crystallography (USNC/Cr) is supported by an award from the Division of Chemistry to host the 2014 USNC/Cr Young Observers Program. This will provide travel fellowships to twenty U.S. early career crystallographers to attend the XXIII IUCr Congress in Montreal, Canada, on August 5-12, 2014. The Young Observers will share their research internationally during 2014, the United Nations (UN)-declared International Year of Crystallography. The USNC/Cr Young Observers program will pursue the following objectives: 1) support early career U.S. crystallographers in sharing their research at the 2014 IUCr Congress, 2) provide opportunities for interaction between U.S. early career scientists and leading crystallographers, 3) provide a mentoring experience to every fellowship recipient, 4) expose the awardees to new areas of crystallography research, 5) expose the awardees to the field of science policy, 6) build a network of early career and senior U.S. crystallographers, and 7) foster international collaborations between U.S. crystallographers and their international peers. The fellowship program will enable some early career scientists who might not otherwise be able to attend the Congress to do so through a unique program.
