PI: Barabino, Gilda Proposal Number: 1444074Institution: Biomedical Engineering Society2014 Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES)-National Science Foundation (NSF) Special Session in San Antonio, TX on Oct 23-25, 2014This proposal seeks funding to support travel for students, postdoctoral fellows, early career faculty and professionals, inclusive of underrepresented groups and accessible to persons with disabilities, to participate in a BMES-NSF Special Session planned for the 2014 Biomedical Engineering Society Annual Meeting. The 2014 BMES Annual Meeting will be held in San Antonio, Texas, from October 23-25, 2014, and it will feature 19 parallel technical Program Tracks focused on the overall theme of ?Bioengineering Innovations to Catalyze Affordable Health Care.? The BMES Annual Meeting serves as a primary vehicle for scientific sharing and dissemination of the latest advances in biomedical engineering, as well as a facilitator of important cross-fertilizations between the life sciences and engineering technologies, which fosters a multi-disciplinary approach in the practice of Biomedical Engineering.The BMES-NSF Special Session in particular builds on the success of a similar session held for the first time during the 2013 BMES Annual Meeting in Seattle, WA. That session effectively increased awareness of NSF-funded research in the area of Biomedical Engineering and allowed investigators to gain a better understanding of NSF funding opportunities and how to prepare successful grant applications. The session also allowed for effective and in-depth interactions among attendees, NSF awardees and NSF program officers who attended the session. The objectives of the session planned for the 2014 Annual BMES Meeting are to 1) showcase NSF funded research and researchers, especially young investigators with CAREER awards; 2) foster collaboration and idea sharing through a networking reception; and 3) familiarize participants with NSF and NSF funding mechanisms and provide insight into strategies for preparing competitive grant proposals. It is expected that this session will recur on an annual basis to contribute to a comprehensive approach by BMES in partnership with NSF to ensure development of a diverse, well educated, and technically competent biomedical engineering workforce.

PI: Barabino， Gilda提案号：1444074机构：2014生物医学工程学会(BMES)-国家科学基金会（NSF）特别会议于2014年10月23日至25日在德克萨斯州圣安东尼奥市举行。该提案寻求资金支持学生，博士后，早期职业教师和专业人员，包括代表性不足的群体和残疾人，参加2014年生物医学工程学会年会计划的BMES-NSF特别会议。2014年BMES年会将于2014年10月23日至25日在德克萨斯州圣安东尼奥市举行，届时将有19个平行的技术专题讨论，聚焦于“？生物工程创新促进平价医疗BMES年会是科学分享和传播生物医学工程最新进展的主要工具，也是生命科学和工程技术之间重要交流的促进者，促进了生物医学工程实践中的多学科方法。BMES- nsf特别会议尤其建立在2013年在华盛顿州西雅图举行的BMES年会上首次成功举行的类似会议的基础上。该会议有效地提高了人们对美国国家科学基金会资助的生物医学工程领域研究的认识，并使研究人员更好地了解美国国家科学基金会资助的机会以及如何准备成功的资助申请。会议还允许与会者、NSF获奖者和参加会议的NSF项目官员之间进行有效和深入的互动。2014年度BMES会议的目标是1)展示NSF资助的研究和研究人员，特别是获得职业奖的年轻研究人员；2)通过网络招待会促进合作和想法分享；3)使参与者熟悉NSF和NSF资助机制，并为准备竞争性资助提案提供策略见解。预计该届会议将每年举行一次，以促进BMES与美国国家科学基金会合作采取综合办法，确保培养一支多样化、受过良好教育和技术胜任的生物医学工程工作队伍。
