This award will provide a modest amount of funding to help offset the registration fee for junior participants, about 12 graduate students or postdocs, at the COSMO-16 conference. COSMO is the premier international series of cosmology conferences. It started with a meeting in Ambleside, Lake District, UK in 1997. It is in its 20th edition this year when it is hosted by the Department of Physics at the University of Michigan. The organizers expect ~250 participants from around the world. The program will be headlined by a number of distinguished plenary speakers, and will include dark matter, dark energy, inflation, and gravitational waves, among other topics. The organizers will pay particular attention to ensuring that the plenary and parallel-session speakers come from a sufficiently diverse pool.

该奖项将提供少量资金，帮助抵消 COSMO-16 会议初级参与者（约 12 名研究生或博士后）的注册费。 COSMO 是首屈一指的国际系列宇宙学会议。它始于 1997 年在英国湖区安布尔赛德举行的一次会议。今年是第 20 届，由密歇根大学物理系主办。组织者预计将有来自世界各地的约 250 名参与者。该节目将由多位杰出的全体会议发言人主讲，并将包括暗物质、暗能量、暴胀和引力波等主题。组织者将特别注意确保全体会议和平行会议发言者来自足够多样化的群体。
