The proposal requests partial support for physics graduate students, young and minority Faculty as well as two senior physicists to attend an interdisciplinary workshop and conference on complex systems to be held for four days in May 207 at the University of Illinois. Some of the topics to be covered are the dynamics of solitary waves on fractal networks, pulse propagation on neurons, traffic congestion and epidemics. Social Dynamics systems such as the rise and fall of social organizations will also be covered. Some of the areas to be covered by keynote speakers will be computational biochemistry, molecular origin of life, neural net dynamics, and nonlinear pulses in fractal dynamics. The broader impact is that the conference is one of the primary networking conferences for people working in cross-disciplinary areas. Women and minorities are encouraged to attend by being provided with support. Also more than 50% of the attendees will be graduate students and the students will be exposed to the latest methods in dynamical systems and learn how they can be applied in very diverse situations. The funds will be used for travel and lodging expenses for the scientists, primarily graduate students, un-tenured assistant professors and minority faculty. This award is funded by the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities in the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Directorate.

该提案要求对物理学生，年轻和少数族裔教师以及两名高级物理学家进行部分支持，以参加跨学科研讨会和关于复杂系统的会议，将于207年5月在伊利诺伊大学举行四天。 一些要涵盖的主题是分形网络上孤立波的动态，神经元的脉搏传播，交通拥堵和流行病。 社会动态系统，例如社会组织的兴衰，也将被涵盖。主题演讲者涵盖的一些领域将是分形动力学中的计算生物化学，生命的分子起源，神经网动力学和非线性脉冲。 更广泛的影响是，该会议是在跨学科领域工作的人们的主要网络会议之一。 鼓励妇女和少数民族获得支持。 同样，超过50％的与会者将是研究生，学生将接触到动态系统中的最新方法，并了解如何在非常多样化的情况下应用它们。这些资金将用于科学家，主要是研究生，未固定的助理教授和少数教师的旅行和住宿费用。 该奖项由数学和物理科学局的多学科活动办公室资助。
