This funding supports the Geobiology Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) and Gordon Research Conference (GRC) in Galveston, TX from January 13 to 19, 2024. The field of Geobiology investigates life and the environment over Earth history, including both modern phenomena and societally-relevant impacts on the future. In recent years, the field has produced a strong cohort of Geobiologists, and the GRS and GRC serve to strengthen the community and enhance communication across subgroups and disciplines. The 2024 Geobiology GRS and GRC offers numerous formal and informal opportunities to socialize and network. The setting and size (60 and 200 participants maximum) promote connections between junior and senior colleagues. The funding will support the attendance of 25 participants, prioritizing scientists who are early career and from underrepresented backgrounds. The 2024 conference will bring together these diverse scientists who work in different Geobiology disciplines to enable the exchange of ideas, tools, and expertise to promote further cross-pollination and development of these disciplines. Geobiology uses the tools of paleontology, geology, geochemistry, microbiology, and engineering but is separated from these more traditional disciplines by an interest in the complex relationships and feedbacks among biological, chemical, and physical processes, large spatial scales, and evolutionary timescales. The conference facilitates interactions among sub-disciplines to understand the ongoing co-evolution of life and the environment. The sessions for Geobiology GRC/GRS 2024 focus on addressing the outstanding questions in the field, and how geobiologists can use their knowledge to mitigate anthropogenic problems and understand life’s impacts on Earth and beyond. Gordon Research Conferences encourage open and honest intellectual debate as part of a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere and each session chair fosters rigorous analysis of all science in a manner respectful to all conferees. These interactions advance discovery and understanding across Geobiology while promoting mentorship, training and community.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.

这笔资金支持 2024 年 1 月 13 日至 19 日在德克萨斯州加尔维斯顿举行的地球生物学戈登研究研讨会 (GRS) 和戈登研究会议 (GRC)。地球生物学领域研究地球历史上的生命和环境，包括现代现象和社会现象。近年来，该领域培养了一批强大的地球生物学家，GRS 和 GRC 致力于加强社区并加强跨小组和小组之间的沟通。 2024 年地球生物学 GRS 和 GRC 提供了许多正式和非正式的社交和网络机会（最多 60 和 200 名参与者），以促进初级和高级同事之间的联系，优先考虑科学家。 2024 年的会议将汇集这些在不同地球生物学学科工作的不同科学家，以交流思想、工具和专业知识，以进一步促进。这些学科的交叉授粉和发展使用古生物学、地质学、地球化学、微生物学和工程学的工具，但由于对生物、化学和物理过程之间的复杂关系和反馈的兴趣而与这些更传统的学科分开。地球生物学 GRC/GRS 2024 会议的重点是大空间尺度和进化时间尺度。讨论解决该领域的突出问题，以及地球生物学家如何利用他们的知识来减轻人为问题并了解生命对地球及其他地区的影响，戈登研究会议鼓励公开和诚实的知识辩论，作为欢迎、包容的气氛和每场会议主席的一部分。以尊重所有参会者的方式促进对所有科学的严格分析。这些互动促进了整个地球生物学的发现和理解，反映了促进指导、培训和社区。该奖项是 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优点和知识进行评估，被认为值得支持。更广泛的影响审查标准。
