The award will support participant travel costs for the 2018 Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES)-Cellular and Molecular Bioengineering (CMBE) Conference being held at the Leows Coronado Resort, CA from January 2-5, 2019. The CMBE field is experiencing exponential growth, with the subfield of mechanobiology being a significant driver.The conference program includes podium sessions with keynote and topical invited speakers, including both women and members of underrepresented groups. The primary objective of the meeting is to broaden the boundaries of current capabilities in cell and molecular bioengineering through pursuit of fundamental research, development of novel techniques and biological models, and translation of these discoveries into real-world technology and medical applications. The conference will introduce and integrate a diverse group of engineers and basic scientists possessing clinical and/or entrepreneurial experience. Invited speakers and keynotes will discuss how they bridge the gap between fundamental research and translation in their specific fields.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项将支持2018年生物医学工程学会（BMES）-细胞和分子生物工程（CMBE）会议的与会者差旅费，该会议将于2019年1月2日至5日在加利福尼亚州Leows Coronado度假村举行。CMBE领域正在经历指数级增长，机械生物学的子领域是一个重要的驱动力。会议计划包括与主题和专题邀请演讲者的讲台会议，包括妇女和代表性不足的群体的成员。会议的主要目标是通过基础研究、新技术和生物模型的开发以及将这些发现转化为现实世界的技术和医学应用，拓宽细胞和分子生物工程的现有能力。会议将介绍和整合具有临床和/或创业经验的工程师和基础科学家的多元化群体。受邀演讲者和主题演讲者将讨论他们如何弥合各自领域基础研究和翻译之间的差距。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
