2020 Frontiers of Engineering Symposia (US FOE, Japan-America FOE and EU-US FOE)

工程前沿（FOE）研讨会由美国国家工程院组织，为来自学术界、工业界和政府实验室的新兴工程领导者提供了分享研究见解的机会，以促进知识和研究方法的跨学科转移。在竞争日益激烈的环境中，新兴技术的本质以及它们如何结合在一起创造出推动经济增长的产品和流程，使得工程师们了解彼此的学科变得至关重要。专题讨论会是促进工程创新和促进美国国内研究人员以及美国与伙伴国家工程师之间的合作网络的催化剂。该奖项将为将于2020年举行的三次工程前沿（FOE）专题讨论会提供部分支持。这些研讨会由美国国家工程院（NAE）与国际合作组织共同组织，面向早期职业研究人员。2020年将举行的会议有：日美对话会（2020年6月，加州尔湾）；《美国之敌》（2020年9月，科罗拉多州戈尔登）；和欧盟-美国之敌（2020年10月；新泽西州默里山）。2020年JAFOE将重点关注减缓海平面上升、机器学习和人工智能用于心理健康、区块链技术、软机器人。2020年美国FOE研讨会将重点关注妇女健康的生物工程、食品生产的新方法、海洋废物清理和下一代能源系统集成。2020年欧盟-美国- foe会议的主题是：ICT问题的深度学习进展、电网现代化、痴呆症和阿尔茨海默病的检测和治疗技术、石墨烯的应用和使用。参加美国研讨会的100多名优秀青年工程师和参加双边研讨会的各国30多名优秀青年工程师将参加会议。每个两天半的研讨会将包括全体会议、参观、分组会议和海报会议，以及发展合作研究伙伴关系的机会。会议将包括与研讨会相关的工程领域的前沿研究、创新和新兴研究机会的演讲。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行了评估，认为值得支持。

The Frontiers of Engineering (FOE) Symposia, organized by the National Academy of Engineering, provide emerging engineering leaders from academia, industry, and government laboratories the opportunity to share research insights to facilitate an interdisciplinary transfer of knowledge and research methodologies. The nature of emerging technologies and how they fit together to create products and processes that drive economic growth in an increasingly competitive environment makes it essential that engineers understand each other's disciplines. The symposia serve as a catalyst to spur engineering innovation and foster collaborative networks of researchers within the United States and between engineers from the United States and partnering countries. This award will provide partial support for three Frontiers of Engineering (FOE) symposia, to be held in 2020. These symposia, organized by the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) in concert with international partner organizations, are for early career researchers. The meetings to be held in 2020 are: Japan-America FOE (June, 2020; Irvine, California); US FOE (September, 2020; Golden, Colorado); and EU-US FOE (October, 2020; Murray Hill, New Jersey. The 2020 JAFOE will focus on Mitigating Sea Level Rise, Machine Learning and AI for Mental Health, Blockchain Technology, Soft Robotics. The 2020 US FOE symposium will focus on Bioengineering for Women’s Health, New Approaches to Food Production, Cleaning up Ocean Waste, and Next-generation Energy Systems Integration. Topics for the 2020 EU-US-FOE are Advances in Deep Learning for ICT Problems, Modernizing the Electrical Grid, Technologies for the Detection and Treatment of Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease, Applications and Uses of Graphene. Approximately 100 outstanding young engineers for the U.S. symposium and 30 from each country for the bilateral symposia will participate. Each two and a half day symposium will include plenary sessions, tours, break-out and poster sessions, and opportunities for developing collaborative research partnerships. Sessions will consist of presentations on cutting-edge research, innovations, and emerging research opportunities in engineering fields relevant to the symposium. FOE symposium papers, abstracts, presentation videos, and slides will be made available on the FOE website (www.naefrontiers.org).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.
