Chemical Reactions at Surfaces GRC/GRS - From Model Studies to Complex Real World Systems, February 7-8, 2015

化学系的化学催化(CAT)项目支持该项目，该项目为美国大学的研究生和博士后研究人员出席2015年2月7日至8日在加利福尼亚州文图拉海滩文图拉海滩万豪酒店举行的表面化学反应戈登研究研讨会并进行研究报告提供资金。有关表面化学反应的知识是催化等重要技术的基础，也是利用催化的经济重要行业的基础。戈登研究研讨会(GRS)将包括研讨会、海报演示和关于这一主题的广泛讨论，随后的戈登研究会议(GRC)将专门关注表面反应的理论和计算、环境化学、基础力学研究、催化、表面化学的新材料和表层化学等主题。从历史上看，戈登研究研讨会和会议是科学家展示和讨论发表前成果和数据的论坛。讨论旨在塑造该领域的未来，并为所有职业阶段和专长的科学家提供在正式和非正式环境中互动的机会。因此，GRS/GRC为建立科学网络和开发进一步发展科学所需的人力资源提供了一种手段。

The Chemical Catalysis (CAT) program in the Division of Chemistry supports this project which provides funds for the attendance and research presentations of graduate students and postdoctoral researchers from U.S. universities at the Chemical Reactions at Surfaces Gordon Research Seminar to be held on February 7-8, 2015 at the Ventura Beach Marriott in Ventura Beach, CA. Knowledge about chemical reactions at surfaces underpins important technologies such as catalysis and economically important industries that utilize catalysis. The Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) will involve seminars, poster presentations and discussion on this topic broadly, and the subsequent Gordon Research Conference (GRC) that the students and postdocs will be able to attend will focus specifically on topics of theory and computation of reactions at surfaces, environmental chemistry, fundamental mechanistic studies, catalysis, new materials for surface chemistry, and surface layer chemistry. Historically, Gordon Research Seminars and Conferences are a forum for scientists to present and discuss pre-publication results and data. The discussion serves to shape the future of the field and to provide an opportunity for scientists of all career stages and expertise to interact in formal and informal settings. Thus, the GRS/GRC provides a means to create scientific networks and to develop human resources needed to further science.
