This award provides registration and travel support for trainees and early-stage investigators from the USA to attend the USA and Italy: Biomechanists Outlining New Directions (U&I: BOND) workshop, which will be held 24-27 September 2023 in Naples, Italy. This workshop is hosted jointly with organizers across Italy and will take place in the Aula Magna of the Federico Secondo University of Naples. The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers from the USA and Italy, with diverse cultural and research backgrounds, who are working in experimental, theoretical, and computational biomechanics across different length scales. The workshop will advance the field of biomechanics while providing career and professional development opportunities. In addition to the engagement of participants from a diversity of institutions and biomechanics specialties, the funding support will target attendees and speakers from under-represented groups in STEM. The workshop is designed to encourage formation of peer-peer and junior-senior mentoring relationships to increase the retention and inclusion of underrepresented trainees and junior faculty in engineering.The workshop attendees of all career levels will gain valuable conceptual knowledge and technical skills in biomechanics. The workshop will facilitate the transfer of knowledge across disciplines and the development of long-term connections between experts in two different countries. It will enhance the current and future research infrastructure from the learned technical skills, the formation of productive partnerships, and the creation of novel technologies and scientific solutions. The knowledge-building, technology-advancing, network-broadening, and partnership-generating outcomes of the workshop will accelerate scientific progress and medical discovery through biomechanics.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.

该奖项为来自美国的学员和早期研究人员提供注册和旅行支持，以参加将于2023年9月24日至27日在意大利那不勒斯举行的美国和意大利：生物力学概述新方向（U I：BOND）研讨会。该研讨会由意大利各地的组织者共同主办，将在那不勒斯费德里科·塞孔多大学的Aula Magna举行。该研讨会的目标是汇集来自美国和意大利的研究人员，他们具有不同的文化和研究背景，他们在不同的长度尺度上从事实验，理论和计算生物力学工作。该研讨会将推进生物力学领域，同时提供职业和专业发展机会。除了来自各种机构和生物力学专业的参与者外，资金支持还将针对STEM中代表性不足的群体的与会者和演讲者。 该研讨会旨在鼓励形成同行和初级-高级指导关系，以增加保留和纳入代表性不足的学员和初级教师在工程。所有职业水平的研讨会与会者将获得宝贵的概念知识和生物力学的技术技能。讲习班将促进跨学科知识转让，并促进两个不同国家的专家之间建立长期联系。它将加强当前和未来的研究基础设施，从学到的技术技能，建立生产性伙伴关系，创造新的技术和科学解决方案。该研讨会的知识积累、技术进步、网络扩展和伙伴关系的产生成果将通过生物力学加速科学进步和医学发现。该奖项反映了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。
