Nontechnical: This award by the Biomaterials program in the Division of Materials Research to Northwestern University is in support of the participants' travel and/or registration to attend and present recent scientific development by US-based researchers for the 2016 GRS/GRC on "Biomineralization" to be held at PGA Catalunya Business and Convention Centre, Girona, Spain from August 14 to 19, 2016. This award is cofounded by the Global Venture Funds in the Office of International Science and Engineering. This conference is committed in bringing young and senior scientists together, and to discuss their current research and builds informal networks with their peers fostering collaborations and interactions between scientists from different countries and fields that may lead to a lifetime of collaboration and scientific achievement. To fulfill these scientific goals and broader impacts, the organizers have invited a significant number of early career faculty and postdoctoral scientists as well as senior scientists to speak at the meeting. The proposed travel and registration stipends will be used to bring early career scientists from the US, and to encourage the participation of young faculty members at the meeting. Exposing a diverse mix of scientists to this kind of intensive interactive meeting will be an excellent way to stimulate broader participation in cutting edge international projects. Technical: This Gordon Research Conference will bring together a multidisciplinary group of scientists, and would provide a stimulating platform to discuss the latest ideas and recent advances on how (and why) organisms synthesize biomineralized tissues, and on how one may apply these insights in areas as diverse as materials research, biotechnology, regenerative medicine, and address environmental issues. The meeting is expected to assemble a group of best and brightest scientists investigating biomineralization across all domains of life, from nanoparticles made by bacteria to meso-structured assemblies and live tissues in plants and vertebrates. The conference will particularly highlight the use of novel high-resolution techniques and the synergetic use of modeling and experiments. The goal of this workshop is to bring together top class pure and applied scientists with the aim of interfacing multiple disciplines (physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, etc.) to understand the fundamentals of biomineralization, and develop applications based on these novel concepts. These interactions at this conference will be critical in generatng an understanding of how particular materials should be designed to be "symbiotic" with biological entities and how to get similarity in functioning of biomaterials with their living counterparts.

非技术性：生物材料计划在西北大学材料研究部颁发的奖项支持参与者的旅行和/或注册，以参加和介绍美国的2016年GRS/GRC在2016年GRS/GRC上的科学开发，以“生物矿化”的“生物矿化”授予PGA Catalunya商业和会议中心，该奖项是Catalunya商业和会议中心的吉隆斯，从8月14日颁发了2016年8月14日，这是2016年。国际科学与工程办公室。这次会议是为了将年轻和高级科学家汇集在一起​​，并讨论他们当前的研究并与同行建立非正式网络，以促进来自不同国家和领域的科学家之间的合作以及可能导致一生的合作和科学成就的合作以及互动。为了实现这些科学目标和更广泛的影响，组织者邀请了大量的早期职业教师和博士后科学家以及高级科学家在会议上发言。拟议的旅行和注册津贴将用于从美国带来早期的职业科学家，并鼓励年轻教职员工参加会议。将各种各样的科学家融合到这种密集的互动会议上将是刺激更广泛参与尖端国际项目的绝佳方式。技术：这次戈登研究会议将汇集一个多学科的科学家小组，并将提供一个令人兴奋的平台，讨论最新想法和最新进展，以了解生物化组织（以及为什么）如何合成生物矿物化组织，以及如何将这些洞察力应用于材料，生物技术，生物技术，生物技术，再生药物以及解决环境问题的区域中。预计这次会议将组装一组最佳，最聪明的科学家，研究生命的所有领域的生物矿化，从细菌制造的纳米颗粒到植物和脊椎动物中的中间结构组件和活组织。该会议将特别强调新型高分辨率技术的使用以及建模和实验的协同使用。该研讨会的目的是将一流的纯粹和应用科学家汇集在一起​​，目的是将多个学科（物理，化学，生物学，工程等）接触，以了解生物矿化的基础知识，并根据这些新颖的概念开发应用。在本次会议上的这些相互作用对于了解应如何将特定材料设计为与生物实体“共生”以及如何在生物材料与其生物同类产品的相似之处“共生”至关重要。
