This award will support student attendance at the Theoretical Computer Science (TCS) Women Event which will be co-located with the 51st Annual Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Symposium on the Theory of Computing (STOC), June 20-24, 2022, in Rome, Italy. Scientists all over the world are increasingly acknowledging the need for diversity. Many diversity-related workshops are being organized with the goal of building community, increasing camaraderie, and helping minorities to share their experience and receive mentoring. While these workshops and meetings of minority communities are extremely important, it is equally important to co-locate these meetings with major technical conferences whenever possible. This allows the broader research community to hear the issues raised by minorities. It also allows the minority participants to better take advantage of the technical conferences.STOC is one of the flagship annual research conference in the field of Theoretical Computer Science (TCS). STOC features presentations covering all aspects of TCS and encourages papers that broaden the reach of computer science theory. Moreover, the co-located theory festival organizes invited sessions with the best theoretical papers presented outside the TCS community. This award will provide partial support to approximately 10 students to attend this leading conference as well as the TCS Women event. The event will consist of a lunch, a panel of senior female researchers, and a workshop open to all, featuring research presentations by prominent female researchers. An important goal will be to provide opportunities for network-building among women and minority researchers in TCS. It will contribute towards attracting more under-represented groups to TCS research, and will provide a positive environment for their future professional development.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项将支持学生参加理论计算机科学 (TCS) 女性活动，该活动将于 2022 年 6 月 20 日至 24 日与第 51 届计算机协会 (ACM) 计算理论研讨会 (STOC) 同期举办，在意大利罗马。世界各地的科学家越来越认识到多样性的必要性。正在组织许多与多样性相关的研讨会，其目的是建立社区、增进友情、帮助少数群体分享经验并接受指导。虽然这些少数群体社区的研讨会和会议极其重要，但只要有可能，将这些会议与主要技术会议放在同一地点也同样重要。这使得更广泛的研究界能够听到少数群体提出的问题。它还可以让少数参与者更好地利用技术会议的优势。STOC是理论计算机科学（TCS）领域的旗舰年度研究会议之一。 STOC 的演讲涵盖了 TCS 的各个方面，并鼓励发表拓宽计算机科学理论范围的论文。此外，同期举办的理论节还组织受邀会议，邀请 TCS 社区之外发表的最佳理论论文。该奖项将为大约 10 名学生提供部分支持，让他们参加这一重要会议以及 TCS 女性活动。该活动将包括午餐、高级女性研究人员小组以及向所有人开放的研讨会，其中包括著名女性研究人员的研究报告。一个重要目标是为 TCS 的女性和少数族裔研究人员提供网络建设机会。它将有助于吸引更多代表性不足的群体参与 TCS 研究，并为其未来的专业发展提供积极的环境。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查进行评估，被认为值得支持标准。
