2016 Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES)-National Science Foundation (NSF) Special Session

NSF已经作出了一个奖项，以支持“BMES-NSF特别会议研究BME和赠款写作”以外的生物医学工程学会（BMES）的年会的常规程序正在明尼阿波利斯举行，明尼苏达州，2016年10月5日至8日。 这笔资金将用于促进，召集和记录会议，并抵消NSF获奖者（5）和评审员（2）的差旅费和注册费，他们将担任演讲者，小组成员以及参与会议的新手和新兴研究人员的潜在导师/合作者。 3小时的会议，具有展示NSF资助的研究和研究人员（2个职业获奖者和1个非职业获奖者），网络招待会，开发成功的NSF BME补助金的基本要素，以及交互式补助金写作和提交小组讨论的演示文稿，将于2016年10月7日举行。 录制的会议将张贴在BMES网站上，供点播观看。这些特别会议始于2013年，有助于BMES的全面方法，其年会是生物医学工程界的首要会议，与NSF合作，以确保发展多样化，受过良好教育和技术能力强的生物医学工程劳动力。

NSF has made an award in support of a "BMES-NSF Special Session on Research in BME and Grant Writing" outside the regular program of the Annual Meeting of the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) being held in Minneapolis, MN, October 5-8, 2016. The funding will be used to promote, convene and record the session and offset travel costs and registration fees for NSF awardees (5) and reviewers (2) who will serve as presenters, panelists, and potential mentors/collaborators for novice and emerging investigators participating in the session. The 3 hour session, featuring presentations showcasing NSF funded research and researchers (2 CAREER awardees and 1 non-CAREER awardee), a Networking Reception, a Tutorial on Essential Elements to Develop a Successful NSF BME Grant, and an Interactive Grant Writing and Submission Panel Discussion, will be held on October 7, 2016. The recorded session will be posted on the BMES website for on demand viewing. These special sessions, which began in 2013, contribute to a comprehensive approach by BMES, whose annual meeting serves as the premier conference for the Biomedical Engineering community, in partnership with NSF to ensure development of a diverse, well educated, and technically competent biomedical engineering workforce.
