Support for the 2017 Canadian-American-Mexican Graduate Student Physics Conference in Washington, DC

该奖项为参加加拿大、美国和墨西哥物理学会联合研究生会议（CAM2017）的学生提供会议规划和旅行支持，该会议将于2017年8月17日至19日在华盛顿举行。这是物理学研究生开始建立跨国界网络的一个机会。在整个会议期间，学生将在正式和非正式的场合与国际同行和教授讨论当前的研究。CAM2017研讨会是为所有物理领域的研究生设计的。全体会议将由粒子物理、天体物理和核物理、凝聚态物理、生物物理、光学、原子物理、纳米科学、计算物理和材料物理等领域的知名科学家进行。全体会议之后是学生们的专题演讲。本次论坛将举办“超越边界：地理、学科与职业”和“超越边界：个人与社会”两场专题讨论，以突出cam2017旨在培养学生在物理领域超越边界的能力。学生海报会议将使科学项目更加完善。所有参加会议的学生将以专题演讲或海报形式展示他们的研究成果。

This award provides support to the American Physical Society (APS) for conference planning and student travel to participate in the joint Canadian, US, and Mexican physical societies' graduate student conference (CAM2017), to be held in in Washington, D.C. from August 17-19, 2017. This is an opportunity for physics graduate students to begin networking across borders. Throughout the conference, students will discuss current research in both formal and informal settings with international peers and professors. The CAM2017 workshop is designed for and by graduate students in all areas of physics. Plenary sessions will be given by well-known scientists in their sub-disciplines including Particle Physics, Astrophysics and Nuclear Physics, Condensed Matter Physics, Biophysics, Optics, Atomic Physics, Nanoscience, Computational Physics, and Materials Physics. The plenary sessions will be followed by contributed talks from the students. There will be two panel discussions titled "Transcending Boundaries: Geographical, Disciplinary & Career" and "Transcending Boundaries: Personal and Societal" highlighting CAM2017s goal to foster student ability to transcend boundaries in physics. A student poster session will round out the scientific program. All students who attend will present their research in either a contributed talk or poster session.
