0853913B. HeAs educational programs in Biomedical Engineering have grown rapidly over the past several years, faculty at over ninety universities have recently developed or are developing courses in biomedical technology innovation, design, prototyping, testing, evaluation, entrepreneurship and associated social/ethical issues. Approaches to teaching this material are diverse and there is little shared information between programs. With this seventh forum (sixth as BME-IDEA -BioMedical Engineering - Innovation, Design, Entrepreneurship Alliance), we will continue to collect key figures in the area of education for biomedical engineering innovation and continue our development of shared resources begun at our past six conferences (Houston, 2002; San Francisco, January, 2003 and Nashville, October, 2003; Philadelphia, October, 2004; Baltimore, September 2005; Chicago, October 2006). In addition, the conference will include opinion leaders and visionaries from the biomedical technology industry, foundations and government. We believe the BME-IDEA alliance plays a key role in informing educators as they plan educational experiences to meet future needs. The theme of the 2007 conference is "Innovations in Teaching Design and Entrepreneurship."Conference Goals1) Continue collecting data re: the initial experience of different university programs involved in innovation, design, technology transfer and entrepreneurship in biomedical engineering.2) Discuss objectives, challenges, and opportunities for further development of these programs including industry and academic perspectives.3) Continue to explore the potential for sharing resources and creating community-wide assets and tools and recruit participants in the existing collaborative efforts (e.g. bmesource web portal, the design contest, IP survey)Intellectual MeritThe past meetings have shown that much can be gained by bringing together faculty who have innovative practices as their common goal. There is much to share in terms of approaches to courses, curriculum, funding, facilities, teaching resources and team-based learning. In addition, by hearing from leaders in industry, foundations and others in academia, the faculty members develop a better perspective on where their students are headed, what needs to be done to prepare them for the future and how others are meeting those needs in their environments. Collaborative education conferences are not new, of course, but focusing on these topics, Innovation, Design and Entrepreneurship, within the context of BME is.Broader ImpactWe believe that this conference, titled Innovations in Teaching Design and Entrepreneurship, will produce a long-lasting benefit by offering innovative teaching resources and materials to a larger audience through publication on the BME-IDEA.org website. In addition, attendees can take ideas back to their colleagues at the many universities that are represented at our conference. All past attendees of the meeting are notified when new resources are made available on the website, thus any one BME-IDEA meeting can provide additional resources to faculty at over ninety universities.

0853913B。过去几年，随着生物医学工程教育项目的迅速发展，90多所大学的教员最近开发或正在开发生物医学技术创新、设计、原型、测试、评估、创业和相关的社会/伦理问题的课程。教授这种材料的方法多种多样，项目之间几乎没有共享的信息。通过第七届论坛(第六届BME-IDEA-生物医学工程-创新、设计、创业联盟)，我们将继续收集生物医学工程创新教育领域的关键人物，并继续开发我们在过去六次会议(休斯顿，2002年；旧金山，2003年1月和纳什维尔，2003年10月；费城，2004年10月；巴尔的摩，2005年9月；芝加哥，2006年10月)开始的共享资源。此外，会议将包括来自生物医学技术行业、基金会和政府的意见领袖和远见卓识者。我们相信，BME-IDEA联盟在教育工作者规划教育体验以满足未来需求方面发挥了关键作用。2007年会议的主题是“教学设计和创业的创新”。会议目标1)继续收集数据：不同大学项目在生物医学工程创新、设计、技术转让和创业方面的初步经验。2)讨论这些项目进一步发展的目标、挑战和机会，包括行业和学术观点。3)继续探索共享资源和创造社区范围的资产和工具的潜力，并招募现有合作努力的参与者(例如，资源门户网站、设计竞赛、知识产权调查)智力价值过去的会议表明，通过将具有创新实践作为共同目标的教员聚集在一起，可以获得很多好处。在课程、课程、资金、设施、教学资源和基于团队的学习方面，有很多可以分享的方法。此外，通过听取行业、基金会和学术界其他方面的领导人的意见，教员们可以更好地了解他们的学生的未来方向，需要做些什么来为他们的未来做好准备，以及其他人如何在他们所处的环境中满足这些需求。当然，协作教育会议并不新鲜，但在BME的背景下，专注于这些主题--创新、设计和创业--才是新的。广泛的影响我们相信，通过在BME-IDEA.org网站上发布，这个名为教学设计和创业创新的会议将产生长期的好处，通过向更多的受众提供创新的教学资源和材料。此外，与会者可以将想法带给他们在许多大学的同事，这些大学代表了我们的会议。当网站上有新的资源可用时，所有过去参加会议的人都会得到通知，因此任何一次BME-IDEA会议都可以为90多所大学的教师提供额外的资源。
