Intellectual Merit: Detection and quantification of biological and chemical species are central to solving a wide variety of challenges faced by modern society in many areas, such as biomedical diagnostics, health care, and global safety and security from chemical and biological threats, pathogens, and potential terror attacks. Biosensor-based technology including biochips and micro/nano-devices are expending rapidly in recent years to meet the growing needs for miniaturized easy-to-use devices for achieving rapid, selective and sensitive detection of various target molecules for a wide range of applications. This Biosensor, Biochips and Micro/nano-Devices Symposium is to bring together scientists in the biosensor field who are working at the interface of engineering and life science to discuss new findings, current progresses, and future perspectives in the field. This symposium will include four sessions: Sensors and Biosensors, Bioinstrumentation and Devices, Bio-MEMS/NEMs, and Bio-Nanotechnology. The symposium will especially encourage undergraduate and graduate student participation, and encourage students to present their research work as oral or poster format. The symposium will enhance the pipeline of our future scientists from different disciplines (engineering and science) and enhance the scientific training of our next generation of scientists in the emerging biosensor fields. The majority of the proposed budget will be supporting students to attend the symposium.The Symposium will be organized at the Institute of Biological Engineering (IBE) Annual conference which will be held at the Loews Atlanta Hotel, Atlanta, Georgia, March 3-5, 2011. IBE (www.ibe.org) is a professional organization which was established to promote broad inquiry in the fundamentals of biological engineering at all levels? and from molecular to organism to landscape scales. IBE is bringing engineering to life science through biology-inspired engineering. As the Biosensor field by its nature is interdisciplinary, the IBE annual conference is an ideal place to organize this Biosensors, Biochips and Micro/nano- Devices Symposium. Through IBE annual meetings, engineers, scientists, and technologists in many areas directly related to biosensor technology will come together to discuss the latest progressand applications of biosensor technology in food safety, environment monitoring, andbiomedical diagnostics. Partnering with the Bio-business Nexus session at IBE, the symposium will also promote technology transfer in the biosensor areas by inviting representatives from local start-up companies to present their respective technologies and strategies for moving concepts to commercial success.Broad Impact: The symposium at IBE annual conference is to discuss current progress in emerging biosensor technologies and its applications in the interface of engineering and life science among a biological engineering audience, and to promote the transfer of new technologies into commercial entities. The symposium will especially provide undergraduate and graduate students opportunities to present their research and to interact with engineers, scientists, technologists and educators in the biological engineering community, which will help to shape our students as the future leaders in biological engineering.

智力优势：生物和化学物种的检测和量化对于解决现代社会在许多领域面临的各种挑战至关重要，例如生物医学诊断，医疗保健以及全球安全和安全免受化学和生物威胁，病原体和潜在的恐怖袭击。近年来，包括生物芯片和微/纳米器件在内的基于生物传感器的技术迅速发展，以满足对小型化易用器件的日益增长的需求，从而实现对各种目标分子的快速、选择性和灵敏的检测，以用于广泛的应用。本次生物传感器、生物芯片和微/纳米器件研讨会将生物传感器领域从事工程和生命科学接口工作的科学家聚集在一起，讨论该领域的新发现、当前进展和未来前景。本次研讨会将包括四个会议：传感器和生物传感器、生物仪器和设备、生物MEMS/NEM和生物纳米技术。研讨会将特别鼓励本科生和研究生参与，并鼓励学生以口头或海报形式展示他们的研究工作。研讨会将加强我们未来的科学家从不同学科（工程和科学）的管道，并加强我们的下一代科学家在新兴的生物传感器领域的科学培训。本次研讨会将于2011年3月3日至5日在格鲁吉亚亚特兰大市洛伊斯亚特兰大酒店举行的生物工程研究所（IBE）年会上举行。国际教育局（www.ibe.org）是一个专业组织，成立的目的是促进各级生物工程基础的广泛研究。从分子到生物再到景观尺度。国际教育局正在通过生物学启发的工程学将工程学引入生命科学。由于生物传感器领域的性质是跨学科的，国际教育局年会是组织这次生物传感器，生物芯片和微/纳米器件研讨会的理想场所。通过国际生物工程师学会年会，与生物传感器技术直接相关的许多领域的工程师、科学家和技术人员将聚集在一起，讨论生物传感器技术在食品安全、环境监测和生物医学诊断方面的最新进展和应用。研讨会还将与国际教育局的生物商业联系会议合作，邀请当地初创公司的代表介绍各自的技术和战略，以推动生物传感器领域的技术转让，从而将概念转化为商业成功。国际教育局年会的专题讨论会将讨论新兴生物传感器技术及其在工程与生命界面中的应用的最新进展在生物工程受众中传播科学知识，并促进将新技术转让给商业实体。研讨会将特别为本科生和研究生提供机会，展示他们的研究成果，并与生物工程界的工程师，科学家，技术人员和教育工作者进行互动，这将有助于塑造我们的学生成为生物工程未来的领导者。
