The theme of the 2017 Cellular and Molecular Bioengineering (CMBE) conference in Waimea, Hawaii, January 3-7, 2017, will be "A Gateway toward the Future:Imaging and Reprogramming of the Cell". The need for this conference lies in the unique opportunity to bring these investigators together in one room for the first time to exchange ideas and brainstorm new strategies for moving the field of molecular and cellular engineering, mechanobiology and biomechanics for therapeutic applications forward. The CMBE field is experiencing exponential growth. A new international journal of Cellular and Molecular Bioengineering was launched in 2008. The first BMES-CMBE conference was launched in 2013. The meeting has been held annually since then. Building upon these successes, the 2017 Conference will bring together leaders in the field of biology, medicine, and engineering to address pressing topics in CMBE research and education.The goal of the project is to support travel awards for students, postdoc fellows, and young independent investigators (Rising Stars) for the 2017 Cellular and Molecular Bioengineering (CMBE) Conference. The purpose of this meeting is to foster interdisciplinary interaction and to capitalize on the rapidly expanding scientific developments in several cutting-edge fields: molecular engineering, genomic editing, molecular imaging and manipulation in live cells. The main outcome of the meeting will be new strategies for the integrated application of these different technologies toward immuno-engineering and stem cell engineering under the context of mechanical microenvironment for therapeutics. There are two specific aims of this meeting: (1) Delineate the current status of different fields of molecular engineering, genomic editing, molecular imaging and actuation, mechanobiology and biomechanics, and immune and stem cell engineering; (2) Foster the free exchange of information across regions around the Pacific Rim in order to jointly push forward the boundaries of engineering and science in CMBE by leveraging the strength from different regions. We believe that this conference is the first of its kind and will create a gateway for the next generation of bioengineers and will be a vehicle toward future development in the midst of an amazing convergence of multiple cutting-edge areas in engineering technology, physical and mechanical sciences, and biomedical applications.

2017年1月3日至7日在夏威夷怀梅阿举行的2017年细胞和分子生物工程（CMBE）会议的主题将是“通往未来的门户：细胞的成像和重编程”。 这次会议的必要性在于，这是一个独特的机会，可以让这些研究人员首次聚集在一个房间里，交流思想，集思广益，推动分子和细胞工程、机械生物学和生物力学领域的治疗应用向前发展。CMBE领域正在经历指数级增长。2008年推出了一份新的细胞和分子生物工程国际杂志。第一届BMES-CMBE会议于2013年启动。此后每年举行一次会议。在这些成功的基础上，2017年会议将汇集生物学，医学和工程领域的领导者，以解决CMBE研究和教育的紧迫主题。该项目的目标是支持2017年细胞和分子生物工程（CMBE）会议的学生，博士后研究员和年轻独立研究人员（新星）的旅行奖励。本次会议的目的是促进跨学科的互动，并利用几个前沿领域迅速扩大的科学发展：分子工程，基因组编辑，分子成像和活细胞操作。会议的主要成果将是在治疗学的机械微环境背景下，将这些不同的技术综合应用于免疫工程和干细胞工程的新策略。本次会议有两个具体目标：（1）描述分子工程，基因组编辑，分子成像和驱动，机械生物学和生物力学，免疫和干细胞工程等不同领域的现状;（二）促进环太平洋地区之间的信息自由交流，以便通过利用以下方面的力量共同推动CMBE的工程和科学边界不同地区我们相信，这次会议是同类会议中的第一次，将为下一代生物工程师创造一个门户，并将在工程技术，物理和机械科学以及生物医学应用的多个前沿领域的惊人融合中成为未来发展的工具。
