AbstractCBET - 0958202 Symposium on Engineering Biomaterials for Regenerative MedicineBurdick, Jason A. University of PennsylvaniaProgram Director: Semahat S. Demir, Ph.D.This project will support travel of graduate students, post-docs, and young faculty to attend the symposium on Engineering Biomaterials for Regenerative Medicine at the Fall Materials Research Society national meeting in Boston, MA, November 30-December 4, 2009. The intellectual merit is based on the critical importance of understanding the design of materials for inclusion into tissue engineering approaches. This symposium will cover recent advances in the development of materials for use as engineered biomaterials in regenerative medicine. The symposium can be divided into five specific focus areas: (1) bio-inspired scaffold design; (2) stem cell/material interactions; (3) advanced scaffold design; (4) nanotechnology (including particles and fibers), and (5) new technology. Although there have been a few very successful symposia held at MRS meetings and Gordon Research Conferences in this area, it is important to routinely update the field on progress to help motivate sophisticated material development.The broader impact of the proposed support lies in recruiting a larger number of graduate students, postdoc researchers and young faculty to attend the conference. The primary goal of the symposium is to bring the most recent development in the field of materials for regenerative medicine to the broader audience. A total of 11 internationally renowned speakers have been invited and confirmed to present their latest research findings at the MRS meeting. The funding support from NSF Biomedical Engineering (BME) Program will be used to provide travel awards to support graduate students, post-doc researchers and young faculty to attend the proposed symposium. Priority will be given to graduate students who will attend their first national meeting, young faculty who will give oral presentations, and those who belong to the underrepresented groups. Three co-organizers of this symposium are female and are strongly committed to recruit and promote women and minority students to attend the meeting.

CBET-0958202再生医学工程生物材料研讨会宾夕法尼亚大学项目主任：Semahat S.Demir博士，该项目将支持研究生、博士后和年轻教员参加2009年11月30日至12月4日在马萨诸塞州波士顿举行的秋季材料研究学会全国会议上的再生医学工程生物材料研讨会。智力上的优势是基于理解组织工程方法中包含的材料设计的关键重要性。本次研讨会将讨论再生医学中用作工程生物材料的材料开发的最新进展。研讨会可分为五个具体的焦点领域：(1)仿生支架设计；(2)干细胞/材料相互作用；(3)先进支架设计；(4)纳米技术(包括颗粒和纤维)；(5)新技术。尽管在这一领域的MRS会议和戈登研究会议上举行了几次非常成功的研讨会，但定期更新该领域的进展情况以帮助推动尖端材料的开发是很重要的。拟议支持的更广泛影响在于招募更多的研究生、博士后研究人员和年轻教师参加会议。研讨会的主要目标是将再生医学材料领域的最新发展带给更广泛的受众。共有11位国际知名演讲者受邀在MRS会议上发表他们的最新研究成果。NSF生物医学工程(BME)项目的资金支持将用于提供旅行奖励，以支持研究生、博士后研究人员和年轻教师参加拟议的研讨会。将优先考虑将参加第一次全国会议的研究生、将作口头报告的年轻教职员工以及属于代表性不足群体的学生。本次研讨会的三位联合主办者为女性，他们坚定地致力于招募和促进女性和少数族裔学生参会。
