This award will fund a workshop for U.S. and Chinese graduate students on next-generation DNA sequencing approaches to environment-pathogen linkages. The workshop will be held in conjunction with the fourth biennial conference of the International Association for Ecology and Health in Kunming, China, on 15-18 October 2012. The study of linkages between the environment and health of all species is an active and growing area of research that spans many disciplines. A primary goal of the conference is to provide educational and networking opportunities to students and to promote international collaborations within the field of ecohealth by bringing together world experts. The workshop will bring together current and potential future US and Chinese leaders in these fields around the common goal of furthering knowledge of mechanisms of survival and transport of pathogens in the environment.

该奖项将为美国和中国研究生的下一代DNA测序方法提供一个研讨会。该研讨会将于2012年10月15日至8日与中国昆明的国际生态与卫生协会举行的第四次双年展会议。会议的主要目标是为学生提供教育和网络的机会，并通过将世界专家汇集在一起​​来促进Ecohealth领域的国际合作。该研讨会将围绕这些领域的当前和潜在的未来领导人汇集围绕环境中病原体生存和运输机制知识的共同目标。
