EEC-0649069Jerry L. PrinceThis award for an REU Site at Johns Hopkins University (JHU) will engage undergraduate students who have career interests in engineering in exciting and challenging research experiences on computer integrated surgical (CIS) systems. These new surgical systems have the potential to reduce surgery and recovery time, reduce surgical errors, reduce patient suffering, improve efficiency, reduce costs, and most importantly, improve patient outcomes. Each student will be a part of a collegial research team, including a faculty project supervisor and a graduate student mentor. Participants will receive instruction on technical communication, oral presentation skills, and research ethics to aid in the completion of the required final research report and presentation.Additional activities will include tours and trips to all Engineering Research Center (ERC) labs at Johns Hopkins, the opportunity to perform laparoscopic procedures at the JH Hospital Minimally Invasive Surgical Training Center, and industry tours to the JH Applied Physics Lab and local engineering industry companies.Students from institutions nationwide, with a focus on women and underrepresented minorities and from a wide range of engineering disciplines including electrical, mechanical, biomedical, computer science, and physics will be recruited to participate in the program. This program will contribute to the development of new systems and methods enhancing the ability of surgeons to plan and execute minimally invasive surgical procedures, thus addressing a vital national need to improve the delivery of healthcare.

EEC-0649069Jerry L. Prince 该奖项授予约翰·霍普金斯大学 (JHU) 的 REU 站点，将吸引对工程学有职业兴趣的本科生参与有关计算机集成外科 (CIS) 系统的激动人心且富有挑战性的研究体验。这些新的手术系统有可能减少手术和恢复时间、减少手术错误、减少患者痛苦、提高效率、降低成本，最重要的是，改善患者治疗效果。 每个学生都将成为大学研究团队的一部分，其中包括一名教师项目主管和一名研究生导师。 参与者将接受技术沟通、口头表达技巧和研究道德方面的指导，以帮助完成所需的最终研究报告和演示。其他活动将包括参观约翰·霍普金斯大学所有工程研究中心 (ERC) 实验室、在 JH 医院微创外科培训中心进行腹腔镜手术的机会，以及参观 JH 应用物理实验室和当地工程行业 来自全国各院校的学生，重点是女性和代表性不足的少数族裔，以及来自电气、机械、生物医学、计算机科学和物理学等广泛工程学科的学生将被招募参加该计划。 该计划将有助于开发新的系统和方法，提高外科医生规划和执行微创外科手术的能力，从而满足改善医疗保健服务的重要国家需求。
