Objective: The objective of this workshop is to discuss the major accomplishments in the last 15-20 years and the grand challenges that lie ahead in the field of micro/nanotechnology. An emphasis will be on the development of bio-and healthcare systems that will help the rapidly increasing world population and improve quality of life. This objective will be accomplished through presentations by the invited distinguished speakers, as well as, presentations by the NSF junior and mid-career researchers, who were CAREER Grantees in the last 15-20 years. The NSF CAREER Grantees will also present their accomplishments and thoughts via two Poster sessions. Furthermore, a panel session consisting of the distinguished speakers and grantees will be held at the conclusion. Intellectual Merit: The outcome of the workshop will help the participants to develop new system programs and encourage them to submit unsolicited proposals. The outcome will also be very useful to the members of the NSF, in making decisions for future funding for micro/nano-systems in Bio and Health areas. It would also provide useful information for the future EFRI Programs in the Directorate for Engineering, Cyber-Physical Systems, the STC and the ERC programs in the NSF. It is hoped that the outcome of this workshop will bridge the gap between the areas of research in nanotechnology and biology. It is expected that this workshop will lay the foundations for the emerging areas of nano-medicine including targeted drug delivery and implantable devices. Broader Impact: The plenary speakers? presentations, the Grantees presentation, their poster sessions and the outcome of the panel discussions will be videotaped and documented. The outcome and the discussions at the workshop will be widely disseminated through the web. It is anticipated that the workshop will have a long term impact on a broader group of researchers and educators in the physical science, biology, and health sciences. It will also be useful to those who consider entering into the new interdisciplinary areas of research in micro/nanosystems for health and nanomedicine. This will also encourage the development of new interdisciplinary courses and curriculum for undergraduate and graduate students.

目标：这次研讨会的目的是讨论过去15-20年来在微/纳米技术领域取得的主要成就和面临的重大挑战。重点将是发展生物和医疗保健系统，以帮助迅速增长的世界人口和提高生活质量。这一目标将通过受邀的杰出演讲者的演讲以及NSF初级和职业生涯中期研究人员的演讲来实现，这些研究人员在过去15-20年里是职业资助者。NSF职业资助者还将通过两个海报会议展示他们的成就和想法。此外，还将在会议结束时举行由尊敬的发言者和受赠人组成的小组会议。智力优势：研讨会的成果将帮助参与者开发新的系统计划，并鼓励他们提交主动提出的建议。这一结果也将对NSF的成员非常有用，有助于他们为生物和卫生领域微/纳米系统的未来资金做出决定。它还将为未来EFRI在工程、网络物理系统、STC和NSF的ERC计划中的计划提供有用的信息。希望这次研讨会的成果将弥合纳米技术和生物学研究领域之间的差距。预计这次研讨会将为纳米医学的新兴领域奠定基础，包括靶向药物输送和植入性装置。更广泛的影响：全体演讲者？将对专题介绍、受赠者专题介绍、他们的海报会议和小组讨论的结果进行录像和记录。讲习班的成果和讨论将通过网络广泛传播。预计该讲习班将对更广泛的物理科学、生物和健康科学领域的研究人员和教育工作者产生长期影响。它对那些考虑进入卫生和纳米医学微/纳米系统研究的新的跨学科领域的人也将是有用的。这也将鼓励为本科生和研究生开发新的跨学科课程和课程。
