Held annually since 2001, the National Science Foundation’s Nanoscale Science and Engineering (NSF-NSE) Grantees Conference is a two-day annual event that brings together nanoscale educators, researchers, and experimentalists from academia, government, and industry to highlight information on the research and education activities funded by NSE grants. The virtual 2022 conference explores the timely topic of sustainable nanotechnology. Specifically, it will raise awareness of this emerging global issue and consider visionary directions and breakthrough options for addressing this challenge. The conference will foster interactions among academic, government, and industry leaders across a diverse array of nanotechnology fields. Final versions of the conference materials, e.g., videotaped keynote, panel, and poster presentations, panel discussions, abstracts, and bios, will serve as conference proceedings. The global audience may access this material, following the event, at http://www.nseresearch.org/2022/, along with archival information from previous events. The live interactive panel discussions on grand challenges in and potential convergent solutions for sustainable nanotechnology will foster creative interdisciplinary dialogue and collaboration. Additionally, the live poster sessions provide opportunities for real-time one-on-one interactions between presenters and participants. Finally, this event will identify and explore emerging sustainable nanotechnology trends; societal, ethical, and economic implications; and accessible workforce training considerations. These collective perspectives will help to enable academic researchers, industry, government, and communities prepare for and proactively capitalize on targeted breakthrough solutions and systemic high-impact opportunities. The conference organizers will seek to recruit a diverse set of speakers, especially those from groups traditionally under-represented in STEM fields. This conference’s primary goals are to promote dissemination of innovative research progress in sustainable nanotechnology, to facilitate research partnerships, and to identify future research directions. The first day of the conference will emphasize Science and Engineering Foundations for Sustainable Nanotechnology and the second day will focus on Nanotechnology for the Environment, Society, and Workforce Development. Keynote speakers, panel discussions, and poster sessions serve to promote inter-university and academic, industry, government, and national-laboratory interactions. These interactions represent a vital step toward the advancement of the goals of the National Science Foundation, US National Nanotechnology Initiative, and the 21st Century Nanotechnology Research and Development Act. To achieve these goals, the 2022 Nanoscale Science and Engineering Grantees conference will feature keynote and panel presentations, panel discussions, and posters that highlight visionary and strategic breakthrough opportunities sustainable nanotechnology. Specific session topics include Tools and assessment metrics for a sustainable nanotechnology landscape; Guiding principles for sustainable quantum biology; Breakthrough syntheses and processes for eco nanomanufacturing; Nanotechnology for clean and sustainable energy conversion; Nanotechnology for clean and sustainable energy storage; Nanotechnology for enhanced climate sustainability; Nanotechnology for sustainable nanomaterials and a clean geoenvironment; Nano EHS to concurrently monitor and improve the environment and health; Compelling evidence-based nano-ethical and legal socio-economic (ELS) policy for enhanced understanding, perception, and behaviors (SEI); and Concurrent Training and Education in Sustainable High-Performance Nanotechnology. Each keynote address, panel presentation, panel discussion, and poster session will serve as a training opportunity for all attendees, as the expert conference presenters will provide in-depth intra- and interdisciplinary insights across a broad array of nanotechnology fields. NSF-funded researchers and NSF Program Directors will moderate live panel discussions. Additionally, the live interactive poster sessions will foster in-depth conversations with poster team representatives, as well as additional discussions of the Conference presentations. Questions addressed in the panels included: What is known about these topics in the last decade? What are the critical gaps in understanding? What are the opportunities for the future? This shared information provides a wealth of knowledge that can catalyze new collaborative and convergent research directions and opportunities. It also will enable an enhanced body of teaching sustainable nanotechnology related materials at the K-12, undergraduate, and graduate levels. Following the event, the global audience may access final versions of the conference materials at http://www.nseresearch.org/2022/ , along with archival information from previous events. The organizers will strive to ensure that conference related publications properly acknowledge NSF support. The conference organizers will seek to recruit a diverse set of speakers, especially those from groups traditionally under-represented in STEM fields.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.

自 2001 年以来，美国国家科学基金会纳米科学与工程 (NSF-NSE) 受资助者会议每年举行一次，为期两天的年度活动，来自学术界、政府和工业界的纳米教育工作者、研究人员和实验人员齐聚一堂，重点介绍有关研究的信息2022 年虚拟会议将探讨可持续纳米技术这一紧迫的主题，具体而言，它将提高人们对这一新兴全球问题的认识，并考虑应对这一挑战的远见方向和突破性选择。会议将促进学术界、政府和行业领导者在不同纳米技术领域的互动，会议材料的最终版本，例如录像主题演讲、小组讨论和海报演示、小组讨论、摘要和简介，将作为会议材料。全球观众可以在活动结束后访问 http://www.nseresearch.org/2022/ 获取该材料，以及有关重大挑战和潜在融合解决方案的现场互动小组讨论的档案信息。可持续的纳米技术将促进创造性的跨学科对话和合作。此外，现场海报会议为演讲者和参与者之间的实时一对一互动提供了机会。最后，该活动将识别和探索新兴的可持续纳米技术趋势；这些集体观点将有助于学术研究人员、行业、政府和社区积极利用突破性解决方案和系统性高影响力机会。发言者，特别是来自传统团体的发言者本次会议的主要目标是促进可持续纳米技术的创新研究进展的传播，促进研究伙伴关系，并确定未来的研究方向。会议的第一天将强调可持续纳米技术的科学和工程基础。第二天将重点关注纳米技术对环境、社会和劳动力发展的影响。主题演讲、小组讨论和海报会议旨在促进大学之间、学术界、工业界、政府和国家实验室之间的互动。至关重要的一步推动国家科学基金会、美国国家纳米技术计划和 21 世纪纳米技术研究与发展法案的目标。为了实现这些目标，2022 年纳米科学与工程受资助者会议将以主题演讲和小组演讲、小组讨论、强调可持续纳米技术的远见和战略突破机会的海报，具体会议主题包括可持续纳米技术领域的工具和评估指标；可持续量子生物学的指导原则；生态纳米制造的突破性合成和工艺；用于清洁和可持续能源转换的纳米技术；用于增强气候可持续性的纳米技术；用于同时监测和改善环境和健康的纳米技术；和法律社会经济（ELS）政策，以增强理解、感知和行为（SEI）；以及可持续高性能纳米技术的并行培训和教育。为所有与会者提供培训机会，因为专家会议主持人将提供涵盖广泛的纳米技术领域的深入的学科内和跨学科见解，并且 NSF 项目主任将主持现场小组讨论。会议将促进与海报团队代表的深入对话，以及对会议演讲的进一步讨论，其中包括：过去十年对这些主题的了解是什么？未来的机会是什么？会议提供了丰富的知识，可以促进新的合作和融合研究方向和机会，还将在 K-12、本科生和研究生阶段加强可持续纳米技术相关材料的教学。请访问 http://www.nseresearch.org/2022/ 获取会议材料的最终版本，以及之前活动的档案信息。 组织者将努力确保会议相关出版物正确承认 NSF 的支持。招募多元化的人才该奖项反映了 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标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
