In this REU Site program, 12 undergraduate engineering students will participate in research projects in the laboratories of members of the Biomedical Engineering Department. Opportunities are available for research on biomedical instrumentation, sensors, prosthetics, biomaterials, neurophysiology, and neural modelling, cardiovalsular physiology and modelling, mathematical modelling, and membrane and cellular physiology. Students will be selected for the program on the basis of their experience, the benefit to be derived from participation and a brief proposal. Participants will work under the day-to-day supervision of faculty members on research projects which the students have developed under the guidance of a faculty mentor. Students will discuss their research projects in a weekly seminar series which will give students experience in presenting research plans and results and in discussing their work with their peers. A limited number of students will be able to present results of their projects at national meetings. Examples of research and laboratory experiences that will involve the student in the following projects: (1) basic and applied research on the processing of speech by ear, eyes, and haptic (cutaneous and positional) senses, (2) polymer-based, ion- selective electrode technology for biological sensors, (3) representation of the acoustic environment and the information processing of the auditory nervous system, and (4) the investigation of the cellular basis for the electrical and mechanical properties of the heart.

在这个REU网站程序，12个本科工程专业的学生， 将参与实验室的研究项目， 生物医学工程系的成员。 机会 可用于生物医学仪器的研究， 传感器、假肢、生物材料、神经生理学和神经 建模，心瓣膜生理学和建模，数学 建模，以及膜和细胞生理学。 学生将 根据他们的经验， 受益于 参与和简短的建议。 参与者将在 对教员研究工作的日常监督 学生在指导下开发的项目 一位教师导师 学生将讨论他们的研究项目 在每周一次的研讨会系列，这将使学生的经验， 介绍研究计划和结果，并讨论其 与同龄人一起工作。 只有少数学生能够 在国家会议上介绍其项目成果。 研究和实验室经验的例子，将涉及 学生在以下项目中：（1）基础和应用 研究耳、眼和触觉对语音的处理 （皮肤和位置）感觉，（2）聚合物基，离子- 生物传感器的选择性电极技术（3） 声学环境和信息的表示 听觉神经系统的处理，以及（4） 研究了电和 心脏的机械性能。
