1062555BehbehaniThis project will support the 27th Southern Biomedical Engineering Conference (SBEC), to be held at The University of Texas at Arlington during April 29-May 1, 2011. NSF funds will be used for partial support for student registration and partial cost of conference publications and dissemination.The conference brings students, engineers, scientists, and industry leaders in biomedical engineering to disseminate information in this rapidly growing field. It provides a multidisciplinary educational forum to discuss new ideas and concepts, covering a broad range of topics in biomedical engineering including the full range from clinical to basic science. Most significantly, it encourages and facilitates student attendance by encouraging student paper submittal, holding a student paper competition, and subsidizing student registration fees. The intellectual merit and broader impact of this project are as follows. Intellectual Merit ? The field of Biomedical Engineering is rapidly evolving. The Southern Biomedical Engineering Conference provides the means for individuals to promote and disseminate advances they have made, subject to peer and professional critique. The gathering is a most valuable venue for discussing new directions, ideas, and approaches for research and education. They also aid both in reinforcing contacts and collaborations and establishing new ones. While SBEC draws heavily from institutions and organizations in the South, Southwest, and Southeast regions of the US, many from outside of the region and even other countries have actively participated in this conference. Hence, it is most conducive for enhancement and elevation of knowledge of biomedical engineering. Broader Impact ? This is beneficial to all attendees but particularly important for students and young investigators. Indeed, the conference?s emphasis on students encourages them to be actively involved, not just by attending, but by participating and contributing to the conference through their individual presentations. It is important to note that some of the organizers of recent SBEC conferences did their very first conference presentation at SBEC when they were doctoral students or young assistant professors. Hence, the conference will bring the opportunity to learn, teach, and establish collaborations to the broad audience of students as well as established researchers and professionals.

1062555Behbehani该项目将支持第27届南方生物医学工程会议（SBEC），将于2011年4月29日至5月1日在德克萨斯大学阿灵顿举行。NSF的资金将用于学生注册的部分支持和会议出版物和传播的部分成本。会议将使生物医学工程的学生，工程师，科学家和行业领导者在这个快速发展的领域传播信息。它提供了一个多学科的教育论坛，讨论新的想法和概念，涵盖了生物医学工程的广泛主题，包括从临床到基础科学的全方位。最重要的是，它通过鼓励学生提交论文、举办学生论文比赛和补贴学生注册费来鼓励和促进学生出勤。该项目的知识价值和更广泛的影响如下。智力优势？生物医学工程领域正在迅速发展。南方生物医学工程会议为个人提供了促进和传播他们所取得的进步的手段，并受到同行和专业人士的批评。这次聚会是讨论研究和教育的新方向，想法和方法的最有价值的场所。它们还有助于加强联系和合作，并建立新的联系和合作。虽然SBEC吸引了大量来自美国南部，西南部和东南部地区的机构和组织，但许多来自该地区以外甚至其他国家的机构和组织也积极参加了这次会议。因此，它是最有利于增强和提高生物医学工程知识。更广泛的影响？这对所有与会者都有好处，但对学生和年轻的研究人员尤为重要。实际上，会议？对学生的重视鼓励他们积极参与，不仅仅是参加会议，而是通过个人演讲参与和贡献会议。值得注意的是，最近SBEC会议的一些组织者在SBEC做了他们的第一次会议演讲时，他们是博士生或年轻的助理教授。因此，会议将为广大学生以及知名研究人员和专业人士提供学习，教学和建立合作的机会。
