This award provides support for a three year continuing award, a renewal of the NIBIB-NSF Bioengineering and Bioinformatics Summer Institutes (BBSI) Program at Clemson University, entitled, BBSI in Biomaterials Science and Engineering at Clemson University, under the direction of Dr. Thomas Boland. The Departments of Bioengineering, Genetics, and Biochemistry, Electrical and Computer Engineering and the School of Materials at Clemson University in collaboration with the Department of Surgery at the Greenville Hospital System will host a ten week summer program for a total of 15 undergraduate and graduate students per year. A total of 45 students will be impacted by this program over the next three years.The intellectual merit of this BBSI is centered on the Institute's goal to offer a unique didactic experience where students will learn the basic principles necessary for the understanding of medical device development, clinical applications, and failure assessment, and will apply these principles in state-of-the-art research projects. The broader impact of this BBSI focuses on motivating students to pursue a graduate career in bioengineering and addresses innovative technology for improving medical device performance. In addition to preparing and motivating students to successfully complete graduate programs in bioengineering through lectures, workshops, individual research projects, mentoring, seminars, and professional development, the renewal BBSI program will include a Graduate School Transition Program to better prepare students to succeed in bioengineering graduate programs.

该奖项为为期三年的连续奖项提供支持，该奖项是克莱姆森大学NIBIB-NSF生物工程和生物信息学暑期研究所（BBSI）项目的延续，该项目名为克莱姆森大学生物材料科学与工程BBSI，由托马斯博兰博士指导。 生物工程，遗传学，生物化学，电气和计算机工程系和材料学院在克莱姆森大学与外科在格林维尔医院系统的部门合作，将举办为期十周的暑期课程，每年共有15名本科生和研究生。 在接下来的三年里，共有45名学生将受到该项目的影响。该BBSI的智力价值集中在该研究所的目标上，即提供独特的教学体验，学生将学习理解医疗器械开发，临床应用和故障评估所需的基本原理，并将这些原理应用于最先进的研究项目。 该BBSI的更广泛的影响侧重于激励学生追求生物工程的研究生职业生涯，并解决了提高医疗器械性能的创新技术。 除了准备和激励学生通过讲座，研讨会，个人研究项目，指导，研讨会和专业发展成功完成生物工程研究生课程，更新BBSI计划将包括研究生院过渡计划，以更好地为学生做好准备，在生物工程研究生课程取得成功。
