This award will support the Gordon Research Seminar and Conference on “Archaea: Ecology, Metabolism, and Molecular Biology,” to be held July 24-30, 2023 at Mount Snow, VT. This meeting will be attended by undergraduate and graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, as well as senior researchers to discuss our understanding of all aspects of the structure, biochemistry, evolution, and microbial ecology of the archaea. Talks will be presented on topics such as newly discovered archaeal lineages, nitrogen and sulfur metabolism, geochemical cycles, and cell-virus interactions. In addition to formal talks presented by experienced researchers and trainees new to the field, engagement will be facilitated by six poster sessions to stimulate interactions between researchers. NSF support will be used to defray travel costs to allow attendance of participants from early stages of their careers, especially for members of groups underrepresented in this field.Archaea are the oldest group of organisms on earth, fundamental to evolution of all larger creatures, yet surprisingly little is known about them due to the extreme environments in which many of them live. This Gordon Conference and Seminar will allow discussion of the newest research on the structure and biochemistry of these tiny creatures, including understanding of their role in cycling nitrogen and other compounds in the environment, and their key roles in many ecosystems. The meeting will bring together seasoned investigators with early-career scientists in both formal talks and discussion sessions to encourage informal discussion and sharing of latest research results on the formation of structures in the cell, nitrogen and sulfur metabolism, and their interactions that maintain communities of microbes essential for stabilizing the environment.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.

该奖项将在2023年7月24日至30日在弗吉尼亚州山雪山举行，支持戈登研究研讨会和“生态，新陈代谢和分子生物学”会议。本科生和研究生和博士后研究员以及高级研究人员将参加这次会议，讨论我们对古细菌结构，生物化学，进化和微生物生态学的各个方面的理解。会谈将在诸如新发现的古老谱系，氮和硫代谢，地球化学周期和细胞病毒相互作用等主题上发表。除了新手的经验丰富的研究人员和学员发表的正式谈判外，还将由六个海报会议准备参与，以刺激研究人员之间的互动。 NSF支持将用于支付旅行成本，以允许参与者从职业生涯的早期阶段出席，尤其是对于该领域中代表不足的团体的成员而言。这次戈登会议和研讨会将允许讨论有关这些微小创造的结构和生物化学的最新研究，包括了解它们在循环氮中的作用和环境中其他化合物的作用，以及它们在许多生态系统中的关键作用。这次会议将在正式的谈判和讨论会议中与经验丰富的调查人员一起，以鼓励非正式的讨论并分享有关细胞，氮和硫代谢形成结构的最新研究结果，并与稳定环境稳定的微生物所必需的微生物社区相互作用，这反映了NSF的构建范围。更广泛的影响审查标准。
