The grant provides support for 30 students and junior faculty from US institutions to participate in the 6th World Congress on Micro and Nano Manufacturing (WCMNM 2023) in Evanston, Illinois, 18-21 September 2023. WCMNM is a premier global conference on micro-nano manufacturing and draws attendance of 150-300 people each year from North America, Europe, and Asia. WCMNM serves as an important platform for exchanging research ideas and fostering collaborations for both academia and industry. Over 80 technical presentations and posters are expected to be presented at the conference. A wide range of topics, including mechanics and dynamics of process behaviors at the micro and nanoscale; miniaturization of machines and equipment; micro-factory paradigms; microscale metrology; materials handling; multi-scale modeling and simulation; design for micro-scale manufacturing; micro and nano additive manufacturing technologies, etc., will be covered.Participating students receiving travel funds from this grant will learn from the unique intellectual environment by attending technical presentations by leading international experts in micro/nano manufacturing, and by interacting with peer researchers from around the world. They will have opportunities to network with researchers and engineers from around the world as well as graduate students working in the manufacturing field. This experience will be valuable for graduate students to gain new insights about future career paths and emerging research frontiers. In addition, becoming involved with professional societies will motivate their intellectual curiosity through developing a network of professional contacts. By involving keynote and invited speakers from the three co-organizing societies, this conference will provide graduate students and junior faculty a platform to facilitate international collaboration and research exchange. Specific outreach efforts will be devoted to advertising the conference and the student travel award program to underrepresented minorities.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.

该赠款为来自美国机构的30名学生和初级教师提供了支持，以参加伊利诺伊州伊利诺伊州埃文斯顿的第六届世界微型和纳米制造业大会（WCMNM 2023），2023年9月18日至21日。WCMNM是每年在150-300年度的每年一次的Micro-Nano Manufacturation全球大会，并吸引了每年的150-300年级。 WCMNM是交换研究思想并为学术界和行业促进合作的重要平台。预计将在会议上介绍80多个技术演示文稿和海报。广泛的主题，包括微观和纳米级的过程行为的力学和动力学；机器和设备的小型化；微观范式；微观计量学；材料处理；多尺度建模和仿真；微型制造的设计；微型和纳米添加剂制造技术等将被涵盖。参与从该赠款中获得旅行资金的学生将通过与微型/纳米制造业领域的领先国际专家一起参加技术演讲，并与来自世界各地的同行研究人员进行互动，从而从独特的知识环境中学习。他们将有机会与来自世界各地的研究人员和工程师以及在制造领域工作的研究生建立联系。对于研究生，获得有关未来职业道路和新兴研究前沿的新见解将是有价值的。此外，参与专业社会将通过建立专业联系网络来激发他们的智力好奇心。通过参与三个共同组织社会的主题演讲和邀请演讲者，该会议将为研究生和初级教师提供一个促进国际合作与研究交流的平台。特定的外展工作将致力于为会议不足的少数群体宣传会议和学生旅行奖计划。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的评估审查标准来评估的。
