PROPOSAL NO.: 0234108PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Martha GrayINSTITUTION NAME: MITTITLE: NIH-NSF BBSI HST-MGH Summer Institute for Biomedical OpticsABSTRACTThe HST-MGH Summer Institute will focus on introducing students to Biomedical Optics, the use of light in biology and medicine, to advance our understanding of biology and pathophysiology and to create effective diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. The Summer Institute, hosted jointly by the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology (HST) and The Wellman Lab at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), is designed in accordance with the following objectives: To introduce students to the interdisciplinary nature of bioengineering research To introduce students to the technologies associated with Biomedical Optics and provide an understanding of its strengths and limitations To introduce students to current and envisioned biological and medical applications of Biomedical OpticsThe didactic program is based on HST and MGH/Wellman program elements that are already in place, and will provide the students with both depth in biomedical optics, and breadth in bioengineering more generally. These include: A formal course on biomedical optics Tutorial lectures on the role of light in medicine and biology An ongoing research lecture series on in Photomedicine An ongoing seminar series by the Center for Integration of Medicine & Innovative Technology (CIMIT), which deals more broadly with the use of bioengineering techniques ranging from tissue engineering to image-guided therapy, and will provide a broad view of current research at sites both inside and beyond MGH. Weekly meetings of the research groups into which students are placed. A research skills module designed to help students plan their research and communicate their results orally and in writing. Bioethics module designed to teach students to identify the ethical considerations of their research.Students in the program will work on research projects in the following areas: Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) Optical Coherence Tomography In vivo confocal microscopy and multi-photon microscopy Selective Laser targeting to treat diseases involving the retinal pigment epithelium Diffuse Optical Tomography imaging of stroke, hemorrhage, brain function, and breast cancer Improved Microscopy for Surgical Pathology Video microscopy for Biological Micromechanics

提案编号： 0234108校长：玛莎格雷机构名称：MITITTLE：NIH-NSF BBSI HST-MGH暑期研究所生物医学光学摘要HST-MGH暑期研究所将重点介绍学生生物医学光学，光在生物学和医学中的应用，以促进我们对生物学和病理生理学的理解，并创造有效的诊断和治疗策略。暑期研究所由哈佛-麻省理工学院健康科学与技术部（HST）和马萨诸塞州总医院（MGH）的韦尔曼实验室联合主办，其设计符合以下目标：向学生介绍生物工程研究的跨学科性质向学生介绍与生物医学光学相关的技术，并了解其优势和局限性向学生介绍目前和设想的生物和医学应用的生物医学opticsThe教学计划是基于HST和MGH/韦尔曼计划的元素已经到位，并将为学生提供生物医学光学的深度，和生物工程的广度更普遍。其中包括：一个关于生物医学光学的正式课程，包括关于光在医学和生物学中的作用的讲座一个正在进行的关于光医学的研究讲座系列一个由医学创新技术集成中心（CIMIT）正在进行的研讨会系列，更广泛地涉及从组织工程到图像引导治疗的生物工程技术的使用&，并将提供一个广泛的观点，目前的研究在网站内外MGH。学生所在研究小组的每周会议。一个研究技能模块，旨在帮助学生计划他们的研究和口头和书面交流他们的结果。生物伦理学模块旨在教学生识别其研究的伦理考虑。该计划的学生将在以下领域从事研究项目：光动力学治疗（PDT）光学相干断层扫描体内共聚焦显微镜和多光子显微镜选择性激光靶向治疗涉及视网膜色素上皮的疾病中风，出血，脑功能，用于外科病理学的改进显微镜技术用于生物微观力学的视频显微镜技术
