The "Mechbio Symposium: Finding the Pieces, Building the Puzzle; University of California, San Diego; August 4-5, 2016" will be a forum where theorists, computational scientists, and experimentalists from both the STEM disciplines and the Life Sciences can begin a conversation about integrating different disciplines and methodologies to advance the field of quantitative multiscale mechanobiology. In order to have a cross-sectional representation of these fields, at least 40-50 participants will attend. This number will allow the different disciplines to be well-represented, without being overwhelmingly large. There are many annual societies with meetings on broad themes, but this meeting will focus on the theme of mechanics in biology across the different scales from cells to tissues to organs. In addition to platform talks and poster sessions, the meeting will also foster collaborative efforts and potential partnerships between mentors and mentees. Break out sessions throughout the meeting with small groups will be given the task of laying out a list of specific aims to answer the question "How would you put together a cell's/tissue/organ mechanome"? By engaging an audience across different career levels, and by disseminating the conference program to a larger audience as a journal report, this symposium will enable us to highlight the importance of mechanics at the organ, tissue, and cellular level. The organizers will actively recruit speakers and participants at different career stages, gender, and underrepresented minorities.The focus of the Symposium on mechanobiology and fostering collaboration among the multiple disciplines is of direct interest to the goals of the Biomechanics and Mechanobiology program.

Mechbio研讨会：寻找碎片，构建谜题;加州大学圣地亚哥分校; 2016年8月4日至5日”将是一个论坛，来自STEM学科和生命科学的理论家，计算科学家和实验学家可以开始关于整合不同学科和方法的对话，以推进定量多尺度机械生物学领域。为了有这些领域的代表性，至少有40-50名与会者将参加。这个数字将使不同的学科得到充分的代表，而不是压倒性的大。 有许多年度协会的会议上广泛的主题，但这次会议将集中在生物力学的主题，从细胞到组织到器官的不同尺度。除了平台讲座和海报会议外，会议还将促进导师和学员之间的合作努力和潜在伙伴关系。在整个会议期间，小组的任务是列出一系列具体目标，以回答“你如何将细胞/组织/器官机械组放在一起”的问题。 通过吸引不同职业水平的观众，并通过将会议计划作为期刊报告传播给更多的观众，本次研讨会将使我们能够突出器官，组织和细胞水平力学的重要性。组织者将积极招募演讲者和参与者在不同的职业阶段，性别，和代表性不足的少数民族.机械生物学研讨会的重点和促进多学科之间的合作是直接感兴趣的生物力学和机械生物学计划的目标.
