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.

该本科生研究体验 (REU) 网站的目标是为本科生提供国家优先领域的独特培训、研究和教育机会，即进行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，为期八周，他们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。这项工作将针对医疗保健和福祉应用领域的计算研究，例如慢性病的监测、预防和/或管理。参与者将探讨普适计算、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。该项目将使 REU 参与者参与新兴国家利益的研究主题；他们将在由计算机科学、工程和健康科学领域的教师、博士后和学生组成的多学科团队中工作并学习。该项目受益于大学支持的、遍布校园的本科学者社区。该计划将促进学者社区的感觉，以增强参与者在该计划中的体验。学者社区将在彼此之间以及与校园内其他 REU 项目的学生一起生活、工作和社交。参与者将参加定期的团队会议、研讨会、团队合作和指导以及社交活动。该 REU 站点将促进培养具有计算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、项目特色以及对参与学生的好处将通过项目网站以及学术场所的出版物和演示进行传播。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
