BBSI - BioMEMS Summer Institute at NJIT

该奖项为为期三年的连续奖项提供支持，该奖项是新泽西理工学院的NIBIB-NSF生物工程和生物信息学暑期研究所（BBSI）计划的延续，名为“NJIT的BBSI-BioMEMS暑期研究所”，由William C.猎人 该研究所将继续为12名本科生和研究生举办为期十周的暑期课程，在整个三年的课程期间，共有36名学生参加。智力优势：该项目引入了一个新颖的智力组成部分-工程设计的元素。 学习设计是工程学的智力核心，也是NIBIB的核心--通过技术发展，医学和医学研究有一个基本的进步模式。 拟议的计划将增加在微技术，适用于新兴的医学新领域的知识渊博的学生池。学生的项目将有助于医疗诊断，治疗和研究设备的微制造和纳米制造的进步。更广泛的影响：微制造和纳米制造的设备可能会对涵盖广泛的技术产生潜在的广泛影响-用于医疗诊断，治疗和研究。 拟议的培训活动将发挥广泛的影响，通过加强人才库，既有微技术的知识，并有兴趣将其应用到生物和医学相关proprofessionm.This BBSI方案是由美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）/国家生物医学成像和生物工程研究所（NIBIB）资助。

This award provides support for a three year continuing award, a renewal of the NIBIB-NSF Bioengineering and Bioinformatics Summer Institutes (BBSI) Program at New Jersey Institute of Technology, entitled, "BBSI-BioMEMS Summer Institute at NJIT," under the direction of Dr. William C. Hunter. The Institute will continue to host a ten week summer program for 12 undergraduate and graduate students for a total of 36 students throughout the three year duration of the program.Intellectual Merit: The project introduces a novel intellectual component --the element of engineering design. Learning to design is the intellectual heart of engineering, and it is also the heart of the NIBIB-vision that there is an essential mode of progress in medicine and medical research through technological development. The proposed program will increase the pool of students knowledgeable in microtechnology that is applied to emerging new fields of medicine. Student projects will contribute to the advancement of micro-fabrication and nano-fabrication of devices for Medical diagnosis, therapy, and research.Broader Impacts: The potentially broad impacts that micro-fabricated and nano-fabricated devices are likely to exert on technologies that cover a wide spectrum--for medical diagnosis, therapy, and research. The proposed training activity will exert broad impact by enhancing the pool of talent that has both knowledge of microtechnology and an interest in applying it to biologically and medically relevant problesm.This BBSI program is being funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH)/National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB).
