Symposium: Nanomaterials and Nanomanufacturing for Sustainability; 2018 Materials Research Society Fall Meeting; Boston, Massachusetts; 25-30 November 2018

该奖项是对2018年11月25日至30日在马萨诸塞州波士顿举行的秋季材料研究学会(MRS)会议上对纳米材料和纳米制造促进可持续发展研讨会的部分支持。该奖项为研究生、博士后、早期职业教师以及代表性不足的少数民族和女性研究人员的会议旅费和注册费用提供资金。MRS会议是首屈一指的国际会议，学术界、政府实验室和业界代表参与、发言和讨论先进材料和制造领域的主题。本次研讨会的主题是可持续纳米技术，特别关注纳米材料和纳米制造。研讨会增进了对影响国家繁荣和健康的新兴和先进纳米材料以及纳米制造方面的知识，以促进可持续发展和环境。研讨会是一个网络和劳动力发展的机会，为学生和年轻教师提供了一个论坛，让他们与来自行业、政府实验室和其他学术机构的与会者见面。可持续发展纳米材料和纳米制造研讨会的目标是促进新兴和先进纳米材料以及纳米制造方面的知识，以实现更清洁、更有效的运输、能源管理、环境监测和消除污染的技术。主题包括纳米材料和可持续发展的纳米制造；空气、土壤和水的质量管理；可再生能源；更轻和更坚固的材料；纳米毒理学；以及生命周期分析。研讨会是一个为学生、教职员工和产业界提供教程、主题演讲、口头和海报演示以及网络交流的场所。这是一个学习新方法和交流研究成果的论坛。一个新颖的子活动包括快速演示，让所有海报演示者有机会在口头会议期间和会议外部标牌旁边的LCD屏幕上推销他们的海报1分钟。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award is for the partial support for the Nanomaterials and Nanomanufacturing for Sustainability Symposium at the Fall Materials Research Society (MRS) Meeting in Boston, Massachusetts, 25-30 November 2018. The award provides funds for the conference travel and registration expenses of graduate students, postdocs, early career faculty, and underrepresented minority and women researchers. The MRS Meeting is the premier international conference, where academic, government laboratory and industry representatives participate, speak and discuss topics in advanced materials and manufacturing. This Symposium's topic is Sustainable Nanotechnology, with a specific focus on Nanomaterials and Nanomanufacturing. The Symposium advances knowledge in in emerging and advanced nanomaterials and nanomanufacturing for sustainability and environment, which impacts the nation's prosperity and health. The Symposium is a networking and workforce development opportunity by providing a forum for students and young faculty to meet attendees from industry, government labs and other academic institutions. The Nanomaterials and Nanomanufacturing for Sustainability Symposium's goal is to advance knowledge in emerging and advanced nanomaterials and nanomanufacturing for cleaner, more efficient technologies for transportation, energy management, environmental monitoring and depollution. The topics are nanomaterials and nanomanufacturing for sustainability; air, soil and water quality management; renewable energy; lighter and stronger materials; nanotoxicology; and life cycle analysis. The symposium is a venue for tutorials, keynote lectures, oral and poster presentations, and networking for students, faculty and industry. It is a forum to learn new methods and exchange research results. A novel sub-event involves rapid-fire presentations to give an opportunity to all poster presenters to pitch their poster for 1 minute during the oral sessions and on a LCD screen next to the outside signage of the session. Winning pitches are recognized.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.
