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 本次会议旅费补助提案的目的是确保资金以促进 本科生参加两年一度的国际婴儿研究会议， 特别关注代表性不足群体的学生 每两次举行一次会议。 在春季或夏季，本科生在美国和国际各地都扮演着重要角色。 在婴儿研究中发挥着重要作用，该计划的目标是为他们参与提供支持 会议，从而激励他们从以前的 NICHD 开始从事 STEM 职业。 资助 R13 计划，我们有证据表明这种出席鼓励学生追求 此外，它还允许研究生院或其他相关学科的发展科学。 学生们看到科学在发展研究中的核心作用。 婴儿期研究领域取决于研究人员、参与者和问题的多样性。 这一举措与国家吸引少数族裔和种族的努力非常吻合 本科生学习科学并鼓励他们继续参与 这一举措也与国际婴儿大会的努力相一致。 研究（ICIS），赞助每两年一次的会议的组织。 本科生的研究经历将造就下一代多样化的婴儿期 该提案旨在支持学生前往参加接下来的三个会议 - 2024 年、2026 年和 2028 年 – 每次会议 20,000 美元（总请求为 60,00 美元）。 除了了解之外，每次会议还应抵消 20 名本科生的差旅费。 婴儿科学的最新研究，本科生将获得会前支持 为体验做好准备，会议上的介绍性会议重点关注使 他们大部分时间都在参加会议以及会议礼仪、交流机会 本科生了解研究生院和大学毕业后的就业情况，以及毕业后的就业情况 最后，短期（会议结束后）和长期会议汇报。 学期评估（最多 6 年后）将评估结果。
