This award provides support for young researchers to attend the ASME 2013 International Congress on NanoEngineering for Medicine and Biology (NEMB 2013) in Boston, Feb. 4-6, 2013. The general goal for NEMB 2013 is to bring togetherleading experts in biology, medicine, nanomaterials, and engineering so as to review experimental methods, synthetic methods, results, models, computations, analyses and innovative methodologies for quantifying and treating medical disorders using engineering approaches. These are emerging areas that are of greatest importance not only for mechanics and materials but also for engineering and science in general, and for the development of new technologies in particular.The combination of engineering and biology with a strong focus in medicine will be a hallmark of the planned event. We will actively involve a large community of participants, and provide an exciting forum to exemplify the intellectual merit of mechanics of materialsin the solution of pressing problems in biology and medicine. Specific research areas to be covered include manufacturing and materials for nanomedicine, biology and nanoengineering, nanotechnology and public health, bioinspired materials and structures, and the application of mechanics principles to detect and treat cancer. Key intellectual questions include multiscale coupling of mechanical systems, linking chemical to continuum mechanical concepts, or the mechanics of adhesion and in the context of nanoparticles for cancer treatment, such as cell uptake. These are emerging areas of mechanics that will receive considerable attention through this event. This award will specifically enable support for student participants, student awards (oral and poster presentations), and networking opportunities for young researchers.

该奖项为年轻的研究人员提供支持，参加2013年2月4日至6日在波士顿举行的ASME 2013年医学和生物学纳米工程国际大会（NEMB 2013）。NEMB 2013的总体目标是汇集生物学，医学，纳米材料和工程方面的领先专家，以审查实验方法，合成方法，结果，模型，计算，分析和创新方法，用于量化和使用工程方法治疗医学疾病。这些新兴领域不仅对机械和材料，而且对工程和科学，特别是对新技术的发展都具有重要意义。工程和生物学的结合以及对医学的高度关注将是计划中活动的一个标志。我们将积极参与一个大型社区的参与者，并提供一个令人兴奋的论坛，以证明材料力学在解决生物学和医学中的紧迫问题方面的智力价值。具体的研究领域包括纳米医学的制造和材料，生物学和纳米工程，纳米技术和公共卫生，生物启发材料和结构，以及力学原理在检测和治疗癌症中的应用。关键的智力问题包括机械系统的多尺度耦合，将化学与连续力学概念联系起来，或粘附力学，以及用于癌症治疗的纳米颗粒的背景下，如细胞摄取。这些都是新兴的力学领域，将通过这次活动得到相当大的关注。该奖项将专门为学生参与者提供支持，学生奖励（口头和海报展示）以及为年轻研究人员提供网络机会。
