Computer Methods in Cardiovascular Device Design and Evaluation Annual Meeting: Spring 2010 and Spring 2011 in Washington, DC area

0948298泰勒该项目将支持由NSF、NIH和FDA联合主办的两个研讨会，重点关注心血管器械设计评价的计算方法。这些讲习班将于2010年和2011年在华盛顿地区举行。这些研讨会的总体目标是提供一个论坛，供学术界、工业界和政府就医疗器械开发中最佳计算机建模方法的开发进行交流和合作。这些方法在心血管器械设计中没有广泛应用，但在帮助开发更安全、更有效的医疗产品方面具有相当大的潜力。这些会议将延续2008年和2009年非常成功的会议，每年有200多名来自学术界、行业和政府讨论了最好的-与心血管系统建模和心血管器械安全性和有效性预测相关的行业和学术界实践和未满足的需求。这些会议正在促进心血管器械设计和评价计算方法的开发、应用和验证，确定器械公司、工程软件公司、学术机构和政府机构的作用。这次会议的一个非常独特的方面是，it行业和政府的与会者出席并参与了重要的水平。

0948298TaylorThe project will support two workshops jointly sponsored by NSF, NIH and FDA focused on Computational Methods for Cardiovascular Device Design & Evaluation. These workshops will be held in 2010 and 2011 in the Washington DC area. The overall objective of these workshops is to provide a forum for academic, industry and government communication and collaboration related to the development of optimal computer modeling methods in medical device development. Such methods are not widely used in cardiovascular device design, but have considerable potential to aid in the development of safer, more efficacious medical products.These meetings will follow on the highly successful 2008 and 2009 conferences where, each year, over 200 participants from academia, industry and government discussed the best-practices and unmet needs in industry and academia related to modeling the cardiovascular system and predicting safety and efficacy of cardiovascular devices. These meetings are promoting the development, application and validation of computational methods for cardiovascular device design and evaluation identifying the roles of device companies, engineering software companies, academic institutions and government agencies. A highly unique aspect of this meeting is that it industry and government attendees attend and participate at a significant level.
