International Mind, Brain and Education Society Conference 2018

这项授予南加州大学的奖项将为2018年9月在洛杉矶举行的国际、心智、大脑和教育学会（IMBES）会议提供部分支持。这是一个独特的机会，广泛的研究人员和教育工作者有兴趣在教育神经科学与其他社区参与，使研究人员有机会学习翻译他们的工作为其他研究人员和从业者的细微差别，并为教育从业者，以提高他们对尖端研究的理解在大脑和行为的交叉点。该奖项将特别支持旨在促进学生和年轻职业科学家职业生涯的会议，并帮助减轻他们的参与成本。该提案由EHR核心研究（ECR）计划资助，该计划支持基础研究，以推进STEM学习的研究文献。会议的重点将是：（1）理解大脑发育变异性的神经科学进展;（2）文化体验和社会经济地位的神经，认知和教育分支;（3）神经科学和神经科学的发展。以及（3）数字媒体使用对大脑和认知发展的优势和责任，特别强调数学和其他类型的STEM学习障碍。尤其是STEM学习。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award to the University of Southern California will provide partial support for the International, Mind, Brain, and Education Society (IMBES) conference to be held in Los Angeles in September 2018. It is a unique opportunity for a broad range of researchers and educators with interest in educational neuroscience to engage with other communities, affording researchers the opportunity to learn nuances of translating their work for other researchers and practitioners, and for educational practitioners to advance their understandings of cutting edge research at the intersection of brain and behavior. The award will particularly support sessions that aim to foster the careers of students and young career scientists and help allay the costs of their participation. The proposal is funded by the EHR Core Research (ECR) program, which supports fundamental research that advances the research literature on STEM learning.The foci of the conference will be: (1) neuroscientific advances in understanding variability in brain development; (2) neural, cognitive and educational ramifications of cultural experiences and socio-economic status; and (3) strengths and liabilities of digital media use for brain and cognitive development, with a special emphasis on math and other kinds of STEM learning disabilities. especially for STEM learning. The conference will together practitioners, administrators, policy-makers, and researchers from a range of different disciplines and backgrounds.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
