This award provides support to allow students and postdocs from U.S. universities to participate in the fifteenth meeting of the International Symposium on Ultrafast Intense Laser Science (ISUILS15), to be held October 2-7, 2016, in Cassis, France. This Symposium is held in the United States one out of every five years, and offers an opportunity for students to present their research results and to interact with senior scientists from across the United States and the broader international community. As it is being held outside of the U.S. this year, it is being supported by NSF's Office of International Science and Engineering. The support of students through this award makes a substantial contribution to the education and training of future U.S. scientists. Students who graduate with a background in the Symposium topic subdiscipline (atomic, molecular, and optical physics) acquire a broad range of knowledge and skills that enable them to contribute to progress in many areas of science and technology. This Symposium is on a topic that is receiving particular emphasis this year because of a number of reports, such as (1) "Optics and Photonics: Essential Technologies for Our Nation," from the National Research Council, (2) "Fast-Track Action Committee on Optics and Photonics: Building a Brighter Future with Optics and Photonics," from the National Science and Technology Council, and (3) "Optics and Photonics: Transformative Research Opportunities in the Mathematical and Physical Sciences," from the NSF Mathematics and Physical Sciences Advisory Committee.

该奖项为美国大学的学生和博士后参加将于 2016 年 10 月 2 日至 7 日在法国卡西斯举行的第十五届超快强激光科学国际研讨会 (ISUILS15) 提供支持。该研讨会每五年在美国举行一次，为学生提供了展示他们的研究成果并与来自美国各地和更广泛的国际社会的资深科学家互动的机会。 由于今年在美国境外举行，因此得到了美国国家科学基金会国际科学与工程办公室的支持。学生通过该奖项的支持为未来美国科学家的教育和培训做出了重大贡献。具有研讨会主题子学科（原子、分子和光学物理）背景的学生毕业后将获得广泛的知识和技能，使他们能够为许多科学和技术领域的进步做出贡献。本次研讨会的主题今年受到特别重视，因为有许多报告，例如（1）国家研究委员会的“光学和光子学：我们国家的基本技术”，（2）“快速通道”光学和光子学行动委员会：用光学和光子学构建更光明的未来”，来自国家科学技术委员会，以及（3）“光学和光子学：数学和光子学领域的变革性研究机会”物理科学”，来自 NSF 数学和物理科学咨询委员会。
