Abstract The purpose of this conference travel grant proposal is to secure funds to facilitate undergraduate student involvement in the biennial International Conference on Infant Studies, with a particular focus on students from underrepresented groups. Meetings are held every two years in spring or summer, both in U.S. and international locations. Undergraduates play a large role in infant research, and the goal of this initiative is to provide support for them to attend the conferences and thus inspire them to pursue a career in STEM. From previously NICHD funded R13 initiatives, we have evidence that such attendance encourages students to pursue developmental science in graduate school or other allied disciplines. Moreover, it allows students to see the central role of science in the study of development. The future success of the field of infancy research depends on diversity of researchers, participants, and questions. This initiative dovetails nicely with national efforts to engage ethnic and racial minority undergraduate students in science and to encourage their continued engagement following graduation. This initiative also aligns with the efforts of the International Congress on Infant Studies (ICIS), the organization that sponsors the biennial conferences. Promotion of undergraduate research experiences will result in the next generation of diverse infancy researchers. This proposal seeks to support student travel to the next three conferences – 2024, 2026, and 2028 – with $20,000 per conference (total request is $60,00). This funding rate should offset travel expenses for 20 undergraduates per meeting. In addition to learning about the latest research in infancy science, undergraduates will receive pre-conference support to prepare for the experience, an introductory session at the conference focused on making the most of their time at the conference and conference etiquette, networking opportunities for undergraduates to learn about graduate school and post-college employment, and a post- conference debrief. Finally, both short-term (immediately following the conference) and longer- term assessments (up to 6 years later) will evaluate outcomes.

抽象的 该会议旅行赠款提案的目的是确保资金促进 本科生参与双年展的婴儿研究会议， 特别关注来自代表性不足的团体的学生。一次会议一次 在美国和国际地点，春季或夏季的几年。本科生扮演一个 在婴儿研究中的重要作用，该计划的目的是为他们提供支持 会议，从而激发他们从事STEM的职业。从以前的NICHD 资助R13倡议，我们有证据表明，此类出勤率鼓励学生追求 研究生院或其他相关学科的发展科学。而且，它允许 学生可以看到科学在发展研究中的核心作用。未来的成功 婴儿期研究领域取决于研究人员，参与者和问题的多样性。 这项倡议很好地与全国性的种族和种族少数派的努力相吻合 科学专业的本科生，并鼓励他们继续参与 毕业。该倡议还与国际婴儿大会的努力保持一致 研究（ICIS），赞助双年展会议的组织。促进 本科研究经历将导致下一代潜水员婴儿期 研究人员。该建议旨在支持学生参加接下来的三个会议 - 2024、2026和2028 - 每次会议$ 20,000（总请求为$ 60,00）。此资金率 每次会议的本科生应抵消20个本科生的旅行费用。除了学习 婴儿期科学的最新研究，本科生将获得会议前的支持 为体验做准备，会议上的介绍会议重点是制作 他们大部分时间都在会议和会议礼节上 本科生了解研究生院和大学的工作，以及 会议汇报。最后，两者都短期（会议结束后立即）和更长的 定期评估（最多6年后）将评估结果。
