CBET-0730035 Bailey RESNA, the Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology Society of North America (RESNA) requests funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to support a Special Session at the 2007 Annual RESNA Conference to highlight the ?cutting edge and leading edge? work of national and international scientists. RESNA, through its Annual Conference has been providing an interdisciplinary forum for over 25 years for scientists, researchers, service providers, manufacturers and students to come together to learn about the work, challenges and solutions of their respective professions.With support from NSF this opportunity will continue at the Annual Conference and be enhanced by bringing scientists that are external to the field of rehabilitation engineering and assistive technology together with individuals working in the field to learn about future trends and the potential impact these trends may have on technology solutions for individuals with disabilities. The Emerging Technologies Session will be a two and a half hour session with up to 3 presenters from the U.S. and potentially one international presenter. The objectives of such an event include:Providing individuals in the field of rehabilitation engineering and assistive technology with new strategies and approaches that may be of value to their current and future work with individuals with disabilities.Providing an opportunity for speakers to disseminate information about their work to an audience they would not otherwise reach.Building and/or enhancing cooperation among stakeholders regarding the development of technology solutions for individuals with disabilities. RESNA is an interdisciplinary association of people with a common interest in technology and disability. The goal of the organization is to seek to improve the functional limitations of individuals with disabilities through the use of assistive technology. To that end, RESNA promotes research and development, education, advocacy and the provision of assistive technology while at the same time supporting the individuals engaged in these activities.

CBET-0730035贝利RESNA，康复工程和辅助技术协会的北美（RESNA）要求从国家科学基金会（NSF）的资金，以支持在2007年年度RESNA会议的特别会议，以突出？尖端和前沿？国家和国际科学家的工作。RESNA，通过其年度会议一直提供了一个跨学科的论坛超过25年的科学家，研究人员，服务提供商，制造商和学生走到一起，了解工作，在NSF的支持下，这一机会将在年会上继续，并通过将康复工程领域的外部科学家和与在该领域工作的个人一起了解未来趋势以及这些趋势可能对残疾人技术解决方案产生的潜在影响。新兴技术会议将是一个两个半小时的会议，最多有3名来自美国的演讲者，可能还有一名国际演讲者。该活动的目标包括：为康复工程和辅助技术领域的个人提供可能对他们目前和未来与残疾人的工作有价值的新战略和方法;为演讲者提供向他们无法接触到的观众传播有关其工作的信息的机会;在为残疾人开发技术解决方案方面建立和/或加强利益攸关方之间的合作。RESNA是一个跨学科的协会，由对技术和残疾有共同兴趣的人组成。本组织的目标是寻求通过使用辅助技术改善残疾人的功能限制。为此，RESNA促进研究和开发、教育、宣传和提供辅助技术，同时支持参与这些活动的个人。
