项目摘要

The goal of this Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) site is to provide undergraduates with unique training, research, and education opportunities in an area of national priority, i.e., research in multidisciplinary technology development to enhance the healthcare system. The project will recruit eight undergraduates for eight weeks each year, primarily from communities traditionally underserved in computing, to carry out hands-on research in the field of wearable computing. The work will target computing research in the application areas of healthcare and wellbeing, such as monitoring, prevention, and/or management of chronic diseases. The participants will explore topics in pervasive computing, machine learning, data mining, circuits and system design. The undergraduates will gain knowledge about computing research, as well as how new technologies can be developed to improve health and wellbeing by providing health assistance and facilitating clinical decision making.The program will engage REU participants in research topics of emerging national interest; they will work in and learn from multidisciplinary teams with faculty, postdocs, and students from computer science and engineering and health sciences. The program benefits from a university-supported, campus-wide community of undergraduate scholars. The program will promote a feeling of community of scholars to enhance participants' experiences in the program. The community of scholars will live, work, and socialize among themselves as well as with students from other REU programs on campus. The participants will be engaged in regular team meetings, seminars, team work and mentoring, and social activities. This REU site will facilitate the training of a new generation of students with expertise in computing research for addressing significant healthcare challenges. The program is expected to have a positive impact on increasing the number of students who will pursue graduate degrees. The research results, program features, and benefits to the participating students will be disseminated via the program website and through publications and presentations in scholarly venues.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.

这个本科生研究经验（REU）网站的目标是在国家优先领域为本科生提供独特的培训，研究和教育机会，即多学科技术开发研究，以增强医疗保健系统。该项目每年将招募八名本科生，主要来自传统上计算服务不足的社区，在可穿戴计算领域开展实践研究。这项工作将以医疗保健和福利应用领域的计算研究为目标，例如慢性病的监测、预防和/或管理。与会者将探讨普适计算、机器学习、数据挖掘、电路和系统设计等主题。本科生将获得有关计算机研究的知识，以及如何开发新技术，通过提供健康援助和促进临床决策来改善健康和福祉。该计划将吸引REU参与者参与新兴国家利益的研究课题；他们将与来自计算机科学、工程和健康科学的教师、博士后和学生组成的多学科团队一起工作和学习。该项目得益于一个由大学支持的、全校范围的本科学者社区。该项目将促进学者社区的感觉，以提高参与者在项目中的经验。学者社区将在他们之间生活，工作和社交，以及与来自其他REU校园项目的学生。参与者将定期参加团队会议、研讨会、团队合作和指导以及社交活动。该REU网站将有助于培训具有计算机研究专业知识的新一代学生，以应对重大的医疗保健挑战。该计划预计将对增加攻读研究生学位的学生数量产生积极影响。研究成果、项目特色和参与学生的利益将通过项目网站和学术场所的出版物和演讲传播。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。
