With this award, the Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry Program is supporting a bilateral NSF/NSFC Workshop on "Determining Green Chemistry Science Drivers and Implementation Challenges," organized by Dr. Robin D. Rogers of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Alabama - Tuscaloosa. The Workshop will focus on the science drivers and implementation challenges of green chemistry in countries as complex as the US and China. The Workshop will attempt to identify the fundamental areas of inquiry and research needs required to bring the promise of Green Chemistry to fruition. This will include such questions as Why is green chemistry necessary?; What are the global and international challenges that require green chemistry approaches?; How can a diverse workforce be developed for this field?; How can new green technologies be implemented?; How can green chemistry progress be measured?; and How can environmental advantages of a green technology be assessed? Workshop participants will take part in writing the conference report prior to departure. Dr. Shengming Ma (Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences) will serve as the Chinese organizer. The Workshop is scheduled to extend from May 27, 2005 through May 31, 2005 in Beijing.The Workshop program will feature scientific, social, and cultural exchange, with the aim of building long-term bridges for productive international collaboration and knowledge exchange. The workshop is expected to provide a forum for the exchange of research ideas, accomplishments and common problems among the group of chemists. The setting and the proposed schedule are designed to encourage formal and informal discussion that will allow participants to become well acquainted with one another. Assessment of the workshop will be conducted by formal survey of all participants and by continued email exchange. Outcomes of the Workshop will include a proceedings (3-4 pages per participant), email lists exchange, follow up collaborations, and a conference report in the journal Green Chemistry. It is also anticipated that an overview paper of the Workshop would be submitted for publication in a journal such as Green Chemistry or Environmental Science & Technology.

凭借这一奖项，有机和高分子化学项目正在支持由阿拉巴马大学塔斯卡卢萨分校化学系的 Robin D. Rogers 博士组织的 NSF/NSFC 双边研讨会，主题为“确定绿色化学科学驱动因素和实施挑战” 。该研讨会将重点关注美国和中国等复杂国家绿色化学的科学驱动力和实施挑战。研讨会将尝试确定实现绿色化学承诺所需的基本探究领域和研究需求。这将包括诸如为什么需要绿色化学等问题？需要绿色化学方法的全球和国际挑战是什么？如何为该领域培养多元化的劳动力？如何实施新的绿色技术？如何衡量绿色化学进展？；以及如何评估绿色技术的环境优势？研讨会参与者将在出发前参与撰写会议报告。 马胜明博士（中国科学院上海有机化学研究所）将担任中方组织者。 研讨会计划于2005年5月27日至31日在北京举行。研讨会计划将以科学、社会和文化交流为特色，旨在为富有成效的国际合作和知识交流建立长期桥梁。该研讨会预计将为化学家们提供一个交流研究想法、成果和常见问题的论坛。 环境和拟议的时间表旨在鼓励正式和非正式的讨论，使参与者能够相互熟悉。研讨会的评估将通过对所有参与者的正式调查和持续的电子邮件交流来进行。研讨会的成果将包括会议记录（每位参与者 3-4 页）、电子邮件列表交换、后续合作以及《绿色化学》杂志上的会议报告。预计研讨会的概述论文将提交在《绿色化学》或《环境科学与技术》等期刊上发表。
