Symposium: Participant Travel Support for the 89th ACS Colloid and Surface Science Symposium, June 15-17, 2015, Pittsburgh, PA

CBET-1523306 PI：Schneider，James该项目将支持美国科学家和工程师参加第89届美国化学学会胶体和表面科学研讨会，该研讨会将于2015年6月15-17日在宾夕法尼亚州匹兹堡的卡内基-梅隆大学校园举行。专题讨论会将讨论胶体和表面科学的广泛主题，这些主题与许多具有技术和生物学意义的过程广泛相关。研讨会将为领导研究小组提供一种与跨学术和科学学科的研究人员互动的方式，并将帮助初级研究人员，包括年轻的教职员工和研究生，与该领域的领导者互动。这次研讨会将包括各种主题演讲、技术和海报会议，将讨论各种及时和创新的主题，这些主题是胶体和表面科学最近进展的核心。计划会议的主题包括纳米材料的自组装和定向组装、悬浮液的动力学、界面的纳米成像和光谱分析、聚合物在限制下的行为、电动力学和微流体，以及胶体原理在环境系统和纳米医学中的作用。

CBET-1523306 PI: Schneider, James This project will support the participation of US scientists and engineers in the 89th American Chemical Society Colloid and Surface Science Symposium, which will be held on the campus of Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA from June 15-17, 2015. The symposium will address a broad range of topics in colloidal and surface science that are broadly relevant to many processes of technological and biological interest. The symposium will provide a way for leading research groups to interact with researchers across academic and scientific disciplines, and it will help junior researchers, including young faculty members and graduate students, to interact with leaders in the field. This symposium, which will consist of a variety of keynote lectures, technical and poster sessions, will cover a variety of timely and innovative themes that are central to recent advances in colloidal and surface science. The topics of planned sessions include self- and directed-assembly of nanomaterials, dynamics of suspensions, nanoscale imaging and spectroscopy of interfaces, the behavior of polymers under confinement, electrokinetics and microfluidics, and the role of colloidal principles in environmental systems and in nanomedicine.
