PI: Hart, Richard T. Proposal Number: 1540059This proposal seeks funding to support travel and offset registration fees for students, postdoctoral fellows, early career faculty and professionals, and speakers, inclusive of underrepresented groups and accessible to persons with disabilities, to participate in a BMES-NSF Special Session planned for the 2015 Biomedical Engineering Society Annual Meeting. The 2015 BMES Annual Meeting will be held in Tampa, Florida, October 7-11, 2015, and it will feature 19 parallel technical Program Tracks focused on the overall theme of "Innovation at the Interface." 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 foster 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 and for a second time during the 2014 BMES Annual Meeting in San Antonio, TX. Both of these previous sessions 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 of 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 2015 Annual BMES Meeting are to 1) showcase NSF funded research and researchers; 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. The session will take place on Friday, October 9, 2015. It is expected that this session will recur on an annual basis to contribute to a comprehensive approach by BMES in partnership with NSF in ensuring development of a diverse, well educated, and technically competent biomedical engineering workforce.

PI：哈特，理查德T. 提案编号：1540059该提案旨在资助学生，博士后研究员，早期职业教师和专业人员，以及演讲者的旅行和抵消注册费，包括代表性不足的群体和残疾人，参加计划于2015年生物医学工程学会年会的BMES-NSF特别会议。 2015年BMES年会将于2015年10月7日至11日在佛罗里达的坦帕举行，它将以19个平行的技术计划轨道为特色，重点关注“界面创新”的总体主题。“BMES年会是生物医学工程最新进展的科学分享和传播的主要工具，也是生命科学和工程技术之间重要交叉受精的促进者，这促进了生物医学工程实践中的多学科方法。BMES-特别是NSF特别会议建立在2013年西雅图BMES年会期间首次举行的类似会议的成功基础上，华盛顿州和第二次在2014年BMES年会在圣安东尼奥，德克萨斯州。 这两个以前的会议增加了NSF资助的研究在生物医学工程领域的认识，并允许研究人员获得NSF资助的机会，以及如何准备成功的赠款申请更好地了解。 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。 2015年BMES年会计划的会议目标是：1）展示NSF资助的研究和研究人员; 2）通过网络接待促进合作和想法分享; 3）让参与者熟悉NSF和NSF资助机制，并提供深入了解准备竞争性赠款提案的策略。 会议将于2015年10月9日星期五举行。 预计该会议将每年举行一次，以促进BMES与NSF合作，确保发展多样化，受过良好教育和技术能力强的生物医学工程劳动力。
