This grant will support the attendance of graduate students and young principal investigators at the 18th North American Meeting of the Catalysis Society to be held June 1-7, 2003 in Cancun, Mexico. The meetings of the Catalysis Society are held biannually and are the premier events for catalysis researchers in North America and throughout the world. Symposium topics include recent advances in environmental catalysis and green chemistry, hydrotreating and heavy crude upgrading, catalysis by nanoparticles and nanostructures, metal and oxides, acid-base catalysis, homogeneous catalysis and single site polymerization, fuel cells, catalysis in organic synthesis, combinatorial catalysis, catalysts deactivation and reaction engineering, computational catalysis, biocatalysis, advances in catalyst preparation and characterization, and industrial catalysis. The objective of this proposal is to defray meeting attendance costs, especially for graduate students and young investigators. With co-funding from other sources, support for about 60 participants will be provided. Special emphasis will be placed on including a diverse group of young researchers in the awards. The conference will involve exchanges of scientific information by nearly 800-1000 investigators and 80-100 graduate students. Students will benefit tremendously from the experience, and this grant will enable a diverse group of students to attend, including women and minorities from varied geographical locations in the United States. The poster presentations and informal interactions permit students and young investigators to gain a much broader perspective of catalysis research and the importance of their own contributions.

这笔赠款将支持研究生和年轻的主要研究人员参加将于 2003 年 6 月 1 日至 7 日在墨西哥坎昆举行的第 18 届催化学会北美会议。催化学会的会议每两年举行一次，是北美和世界各地催化研究人员的首要活动。 研讨会主题包括环境催化和绿色化学、加氢处理和重质原油升级、纳米粒子和纳米结构催化、金属和氧化物、酸碱催化、均相催化和单中心聚合、燃料电池、有机合成催化、组合催化等领域的最新进展、催化剂失活和反应工程、计算催化、生物催化、催化剂制备和表征的进展以及工业催化。 该提案的目的是支付会议出席费用，特别是研究生和年轻研究人员的费用。 在其他来源的共同资助下，将为约 60 名参与者提供支持。该奖项将特别强调包括多元化的年轻研究人员。会议将涉及近800-1000名研究人员和80-100名研究生的科学信息交流。 学生将从这次经历中受益匪浅，这笔赠款将使不同的学生群体能够参加，包括来自美国不同地理位置的女性和少数族裔。 海报展示和非正式互动使学生和年轻研究人员能够获得更广阔的催化研究视角以及他们自己贡献的重要性。
