Doctoral Symposium at the 2019 Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention Conference (MICCAI 2019)

这笔赠款部分支持美国机构的学生参加2019医学图像计算和计算机辅助干预(MICCAI)会议的博士研讨会。MICCAI是MICAI协会的年度会议，预计2019年将有来自世界各地的1000多人参加。这笔赠款将帮助参加会议的MICCAI领域一些最聪明的初级研究人员的职业发展，通过引起人们对研究生发展的一个重要方面的关注，为整个研究界做出贡献。博士研讨会委员会将选出获奖者，优先考虑那些来自未被充分代表的种族和民族、残疾人、弱势背景的个人。申请的资金将部分支持10名美国学生参加MICCAI 2019年和参加博士研讨会的旅费。拟议的研讨会将包括受邀的和精选的研究报告，重点放在MICCAI主题上。MICCAI协会致力于促进、保护和促进医学图像计算和计算机辅助医疗干预领域的研究、教育和实践，包括生物医学成像和机器人技术。这些新兴领域的多学科性质将临床医生、生物科学家、计算机科学家、工程师、物理学家和其他研究人员聚集在一起，他们为方法学和应用领域的进步做出了贡献，并需要与之保持同步。这个博士研讨会为包括美国机构的学生在内的学生提供了一个机会，在更广泛的社区内介绍、讨论和接受关于原创研究的反馈。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This grant partially supports the participation of students from US-based institutions in the Doctoral Symposium at the 2019 Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention (MICCAI) conference. MICCAI is the annual conference of MICCAI society with expected over 1,000 attendees in 2019 from all the world. This grant will help the career development of some of the brightest junior researchers in MICCAI fields attending the conference, contributes to the research community in general by drawing attention to an important aspect of graduate student development. The doctoral symposium committee will select awardees, with priority given to those from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups, individuals with disabilities, individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds.The requested funding will partially support travels for 10 US-based students to attend MICCAI 2019 and participate in the doctoral symposium. The proposed symposium will feature both invited and selected research presentations that focus on MICCAI topics. The MICCAI Society is dedicated to the promotion, preservation and facilitation of research, education and practice in the field of medical image computing and computer assisted medical interventions including biomedical imaging and robotics. The multidisciplinary nature of these emerging fields brings together clinicians, bioscientists, computer scientists, engineers, physicists, and other researchers who are contributing to, and need to keep abreast of, advances in the methodology and applications. This doctoral symposium provides an opportunity to students including students from US based institutions to present, discuss, and receive feedback on original research within the broader community.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.
