This award will support the Summer Biomechanics, Bioengineering, and Biotransport Conference (SB3C), Vail, Colorado 4-8 June 2023, with a theme of Building Interfaces Across Tissues, Disciplines, and Communities. A hallmark of the SB3C is a focus on student and trainee involvement (approximately half of attendees are trainees). The conference will highlight student achievements in research through a Student Paper Competition as well as connect trainees with mentors through events such as the Diversity Mentor-Mentee session. Funding will be used to offset registration and travel costs for undergraduate and graduate students majoring in a STEM field, with special consideration given to members of groups underrepresented in STEM. Registration costs for the students selected to participate in the BS Student Paper Competition and MS Student Paper Competition will be waived, which will enable students who might not ordinarily be able to attend the conference to compete in these research competitions. The conference will also feature a Diversity Reception and Diversity Mentor-Mentee Workshop, led by a professional facilitator.The SB3C is a leading bioengineering conference held annually that promotes state-of-the-art research, collaboration, and scientific discourse in bioengineering; showcases research from students and trainees; and provides essential networking and mentoring opportunities across disciplines and levels of seniority. The conference will include over 40 podium sessions, 4 plenary/award lecture sessions, 10 workshops, and numerous reception and networking events. The objectives of the conference are: (i) enhance access to bioengineering research and education opportunities, particularly for underrepresented groups (ii) improve interfaces across basic research and translation, including biomechanics, bioengineering, and biotransport; and (iii) develop emerging bioengineering fields with high translational potential.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.

该奖项将支持夏季生物力学，生物工程和生物运输会议（SB 3C），韦尔，科罗拉多2023年6月4日至8日，主题为跨组织，神经系统和社区构建界面。SB 3C的一个特点是注重学生和学员的参与（大约一半的与会者是学员）。会议将通过学生论文比赛突出学生在研究方面的成就，并通过多样性导师-学员会议等活动将学员与导师联系起来。资金将用于抵消本科生和研究生主修STEM领域的注册和旅行费用，并特别考虑STEM代表性不足的群体成员。被选中参加BS学生论文比赛和MS学生论文比赛的学生的注册费用将被免除，这将使那些通常无法参加会议的学生能够参加这些研究比赛。SB 3C是一个领先的生物工程会议，每年举办一次，旨在促进生物工程领域最先进的研究、合作和科学话语;展示学生和学员的研究成果;并提供跨学科和资历级别的重要网络和指导机会。会议将包括40多个讲台会议，4个全体会议/颁奖演讲会，10个研讨会，以及众多的接待和网络活动。会议的目标是：（i）增加获得生物工程研究和教育的机会，特别是对于代表性不足的群体（ii）改善基础研究和翻译之间的接口，包括生物力学，生物工程和生物运输;以及（iii）开发具有高转化潜力的新兴生物工程领域。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的学术价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
