1006070PattonThis project will support the student travel and the Student Paper Competition at the 32nd Annual International Conference of the Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBS) that will be held in Buenos Aires, Argentina from August 31 through September 4, 2010. The mission of the Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBS) of the IEEE is to advance the application of engineering sciences and technology to medicine and biology, promote the profession, and provide global leadership for the benefit of its members and humanity by disseminating knowledge, setting standards, fostering professional development, and recognizing excellence. To support its mission, EMBS of the IEEE has been organizing annual conferences of the engineering in medicine and biology society for past 30 years. Each year, this annual conference which is the largest meeting of biomedical engineers in the world attracts 2000-3000 people including about 800 students presenting more than 1800 papers from all over the world. The student activities include a widely publicized and well-respected Student Paper Competition and meetings with pioneers and leaders in biomedical engineering, special symposiums and mentoring programs.In 2010, EMBC will be held at the Sheraton Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina from August 31 through September 4, 2010. It is expected that more than 1500 scientists, engineers and students will be attending this conference from all over the world. About 150-200 papers are expected to be submitted to the Student Paper Competition. From those, twenty-five finalists will be selected through the use of an on-line review and judging system for making the final oral presentations during the conference. The proposed funding will help US-based student finalists to travel to present their research paper in the Student Paper Competition. It will also provide the prizes for the winners of the Competition.The EMBC Student Competition is indeed a critical portion of the conference, provides a forum where top-notch students are able to compete with other superlative students in a wide array of eleven bioengineering disciplines. Student participants are able to view their research, and their presentation of that research, from a much broader perspective. Without the incentive of this Competition, many students would be unable or less likely to attend the conference, thus missing an introduction to the world of knowledge available at such conferences. In addition, the Competition plays a crucial role in recognizing the talents of women and minorities in the field of bioengineering.This Competition promotes not only education within bioengineering disciplines, but fosters the next generation of bioengineers by providing a unique opportunity to students to meet and network with the leading biomedical professionals and scientists in the world.

1006070 Patton该项目将支持将于2010年8月31日至9月4日在阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯举行的第32届医学和生物工程学会(EMBS)国际年会的学生旅行和学生论文竞赛。IEEE医学和生物工程学会(EMBS)的使命是推动工程科学和技术在医学和生物学领域的应用，促进这一专业，并通过传播知识、制定标准、促进专业发展和表彰优秀，为其成员和人类提供全球领导。为了支持其使命，IEEE的EMBS在过去的30年里一直在组织医学和生物学会的工程学年度会议。这个年度会议是世界上最大的生物医学工程师会议，每年吸引2000-3000人参加，其中包括大约800名学生，他们发表了来自世界各地的1800多篇论文。学生活动包括广泛宣传和备受尊敬的学生论文比赛，与生物医学工程的先驱和领导者的会议，特别研讨会和指导计划。2010年，EMBC将于2010年8月31日至9月4日在阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯的喜来登酒店举行。预计将有1500多名来自世界各地的科学家、工程师和学生参加这次会议。预计将有大约150-200篇论文提交给学生论文比赛。其中25名入围者将通过使用在线审查和评判系统在会议期间进行最后口头陈述。拟议的资金将帮助美国学生决赛选手前往美国，在学生论文比赛中展示他们的研究论文。EMBC学生竞赛确实是会议的重要组成部分，提供了一个论坛，让尖子生能够在11个生物工程学科的广泛范围内与其他最优秀的学生竞争。学生参与者能够从更广泛的角度查看他们的研究以及他们对该研究的陈述。如果没有这次比赛的激励，许多学生将无法或不太可能参加会议，从而错过了对此类会议所提供的知识世界的介绍。此外，大赛在表彰女性和少数族裔在生物工程领域的才华方面也发挥着至关重要的作用。这项大赛不仅促进了生物工程学科的教育，而且通过为学生提供一个独特的机会，让他们与世界领先的生物医学专业人士和科学家见面和建立网络，从而培养下一代生物工程师。
