Conference: 2015 TERMIS World Congress, September 8-11, 2015, Boston, Massachusetts

PI：卡普兰，David L.提案编号：1540742本提案寻求对参加2015年组织工程和再生医学国际学会-世界大会(TERMIS-WC)年会的青年研究人员、研究生和本科生的旅行奖的支持，该年会将于2015年9月8日至11日在马萨诸塞州波士顿举行。总共58名参与者将通过资金得到支持，这些资金将用于支付部分注册费和交通费。2015年TERMIS-WC会议由塔夫茨大学的大卫·卡普兰博士和匹兹堡大学的凯西·马拉博士共同主持。联合主席都是组织工程和生物材料领域的知名研究人员，他们致力于支持本科生、研究生和博士后研究员。组织工程和再生医学是一个新兴的交叉学科领域，有可能彻底改变各种疾病的临床治疗和治疗方法。TERMI-WC会议是组织工程和再生医学国际学会的一次重要会议，预计将有大约2000名国际研究人员、科学家、临床医生、实习生和来自学术界和产业界的学生齐聚一堂，介绍和讨论该领域的关键发展。因此，会议整合和传播了组织工程和再生医学的前沿研究。主旨演讲者是该领域的领导者，技术和海报会议包括关于最新进展的演讲。TERMIS学生和青年调查员科(SYIS)将在会议规划和执行中发挥重要作用。会议将为学生、研究人员和临床医生提供充分的机会，了解组织工程和再生医学领域的最新进展，并将其纳入他们的教育、研究和开发以及临床活动。将特别重视学生、青年调查人员、来自代表性不足群体的调查人员和女性调查人员的参与。计划以这些群体为目标的活动，旨在加强他们的培训、指导、职业发展和求职。讲习班的调查结果将通过讲习班网站和《组织工程》杂志(TERMIS的官方杂志)网站进行传播。这项提案由生物医学工程计划和生物技术和生化工程计划共同资助，这两个计划都在化学、生物工程、环境和运输系统部门。

PI: Kaplan, David L. Proposal Number: 1540742This proposal seeks support for Travel Awards to Young Investigators, Graduate Students and Undergraduate Students to attend the 2015 Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine International Society - World Congress (TERMIS-WC) Annual Meeting is to be held on September 8-11, 2015, in Boston, Massachusetts. A total of 58 participants will be supported through funds that will be used to partially cover registration fees and transportation expenses. The 2015 TERMIS-WC Meeting is co-chaired by Dr. David Kaplan at Tufts University and Dr. Kacey Marra at the University of Pittsburgh. The co-chairs are both established researchers in the areas of tissue engineering and biomaterials, and they are committed to supporting undergraduate students, graduate students, and post-doctoral fellows. Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine is an emerging interdisciplinary field with the potential to revolutionize clinical treatments and therapies for a variety of diseases. The TERMIS-WC Meeting is a key meeting of the Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine International Society, and it is estimated to bring together approximately 2000 international researchers, scientists, clinicians, trainees, and students from both academia and industry to present and discuss key developments in the field. The meeting therefore integrates and disseminates cutting edge research in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Keynote speakers are leaders in the field and technical and poster sessions include presentations on the latest advances. A strong role in the meeting planning and execution will be played by the TERMIS Student and Young Investigator Section (SYIS). The conference will provide ample opportunities for students, investigators and clinicians to learn the latest advances in the tissue engineering and regenerative medicine fields and incorporate them in their educational, research and development, and clinical activities. Special emphasis will be given to the participation of students, young investigators, investigators from underrepresented groups, and women investigators. Activities are planned that target these groups and aim to enhance their training, mentorship, career development, and job search. The findings from the workshop will be disseminated through the workshop website and the journal Tissue Engineering (the official journal of TERMIS) website. This proposal is co-funded by the Biomedical Engineering Program and by the Biotechnology and Biochemical Engineering Program, both in the Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental and Transport Systems Division.
