Conference on Biology and Medicine through Mathematics 2022

该奖项支持参加2022年5月18日至20日在弗吉尼亚州里士满的弗吉尼亚联邦大学举行的2022年生物学和医学数学（BAMM）会议。会议的目的是突出数学生物学和医学领域的最新发展。会议将：i）提供一个区域生物数学会议，促进初级研究人员（研究生，博士后研究员和初级教师）; ii）提供一系列数学生物学应用和方法的可见性; iii）为初级和高级研究人员之间的网络提供良好的环境。 会议将接待约100名与会者。会议将是全体会议，分组会议和海报会议的混合。 差旅费支持将增加初级研究人员参加会议的机会。初级研究人员（本科生和研究生，博士后学者和早期职业教师）将从参加这次会议中受益。BAMM将提供一个亲密的会议环境，有机会为各级研究人员展示海报或发表演讲。新到该领域的学生研究人员将有很好的机会参加来自许多子领域的讲座。将鼓励和支持妇女和在数学和科学领域代表性不足的少数民族成员的参与。2019年会议的与会者人口统计数据表明，旅行奖励对与会者的多样性有积极的贡献。会议网站：https://siam.vcu.edu/bamm/This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。

This award supports participation in the 2022 Biology and Medicine through Mathematics (BAMM) conference, held May 18-20, 2022, at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Virginia. The aim of the conference is to highlight recent developments in the fields of mathematical biology and medicine. The meeting will: i) provide a regional biomathematics conference that promotes junior investigators (graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty); ii) give visibility to a range of applications and methods in mathematical biology; and iii) provide a good environment for networking between junior and senior researchers. The conference will host approximately 100 attendees. The conference will be a mix of plenary talks, break-out sessions, and a poster session. Travel support will increase the accessibility of the conference by junior researchers.Junior researchers (undergraduates and graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and early career faculty) will benefit from participating in this meeting. BAMM will provide an intimate conference environment with opportunities to present a poster or give a talk for researchers at all levels. Student researchers new to the field will have excellent opportunities to attend talks from many sub-fields. Participation of women and members of minorities underrepresented in mathematics and science will be encouraged and supported. The participant demographics from the 2019 conference indicate that travel awards have a positive contribution to the diversity of the participants. The organizers anticipate a similar, positive impact on this year's event.Conference web site: https://siam.vcu.edu/bamm/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.
