PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT We seek five years of funding to enhance diversity and accessibility at the Boston University Conference on Language Development (BUCLD), which will take place at Boston University each year around the first weekend in November. Now in its 46th year, the BUCLD is internationally recognized as one of the most important annual meetings of researchers in different areas of language acquisition and development, including first and second language acquisition, language disorders, bilingualism, and literacy development. The meeting comprises oral presentations and poster presentations selected through peer review, as well as invited keynote and plenary speakers, a symposium on a topic of current interest, a NIH/NSF research funding workshop, a professionalization workshop for students and postdocs, a pop-up mentoring program, and a sponsor exhibit. The BUCLD serves as a prime venue for disseminating and inciting new scientific research; it brings together researchers from all different areas of language development who do not typically interact or encounter each other’s work regularly elsewhere, thus fostering substantial interaction across theoretical and disciplinary boundaries. It also offers excellent training for students and postdocs, both in the form of access to high-quality scholarship and in training activities such as the funding workshop. In this proposal, we are requesting funds for student travel awards that will increase the quality, visibility, interdisciplinary contribution, health relevance, and accessibility of the conference for students from underrepresented populations, including women, racial/ethnic minorities, people with disabilities, and first- generation college students. These student travel awards are a key piece not only for ensuring that the BUCLD continues to be a high-quality venue for the above activities, but also for allowing the conference to grow in important new directions that are demonstrated priorities for the scientific community as well as NIH.

项目摘要 /摘要 我们寻求五年的资金来增强波士顿大学会议的多样性和可及性 语言发展（BUCLD），每年将在波士顿大学举行第一个 11月的周末。 BUCLD已于46年，在国际上被公认为是最重要的年度会议之一 语言获取和发展不同领域的研究人员，包括第一语言和第二语言 获取，语言障碍，双语和扫盲发展。会议包括口头 通过同行评审选择的演示和海报演示文稿和邀请的主题演讲和全体会议 演讲者，关于当前感兴趣的话题的研讨会，NIH/NSF研究资金研讨会，一个 针对学生和博士后的专业化研讨会，一个弹出的心理计划以及赞助商展览。 BUCLD是传播和煽动新科学研究的主要场所。它聚集在一起 来自各个不同语言发展领域的研究人员通常不会互动或遇到每个语言的研究人员 他人定期在其他地方的工作，从而在理论和纪律处促进了大量互动 边界。它还为学生和博士后提供了出色的培训，既有获得高质量的形式 奖学金和培训活动，例如资助研讨会。 在此提案中，我们要求为学生旅行奖提供资金，以提高质量，知名度， 会议的跨学科贡献，健康相关性和可访问性 人口不足，包括妇女，种族/族裔少数民族，残疾人以及首先 一代大学生。这些学生旅行奖不仅是确保Bucld的关键作品 继续是上述活动的高质量场所，但也允许会议发展 重要的新方向是科学界和NIH的优先事项。
