This award supports the 2023 Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Biomechanics in Vascular Biology and Disease, which will be held 6-11 August 2023, at Mount Holyoke College, South Hadley, Massachusetts, through support of registration fees for selected students, postdoctoral fellows, and early-stage investigators studying in the US to attend. The objective is to broaden the participation of a diverse group of students, postdocs, and early-stage investigators (assistant professors appointed within the last three years), including women, underrepresented minorities, disabled, and disadvantaged groups. Consideration in the selection process will be given to the inclusion of members of underrepresented groups, the diversity of institutions that the participants represent, and the diversity of programs representing broad areas of engineering and biology. This brand-new 2023 GRC Meeting will bring researchers together to discuss the topics involved in cardiovascular biomechanics, mechanobiology, and their roles in cardiovascular disease while promoting active engagement across all participant groups, especially young investigators, students, women, underrepresented, and disadvantaged groups to ensure future growth.The 2023 GRC meeting is a significant expansion of the International Symposium on Cardiovascular Biology and Disease, which has been held annually as a small transatlantic conference. The Symposium activity began in 2005 as the Shear stress symposium by the cardiovascular biomechanics and imaging group in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. The Symposium has been gradually expanding and evolving as International Symposium on Biomechanics in Cardiovascular Biology and Disease meetings since 2012. The 2023 GRC aims to provide a forum to bring together engineers, biologists, and clinicians who study biomechanics in cardiovascular biology and disease in the nation and internationally. The Program will have a keynote session, eight sessions, four poster sessions, and a Power Hour session, which will discuss the effect of biomechanical forces, including shear stress and wall stress, on the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis, thrombosis, and aneurysms. This project is supported by Biomechanics and Mechanobiology (BMMB) program in the CMMI division and Engineering of Biomedical Systems (EBMS) program in the CBET division.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.

该奖项支持2023年戈登研究会议（GRC）血管生物学和疾病的生物力学，将于2023年8月6日至11日在马萨诸塞州南哈德利的霍利奥克山学院举行，通过支持选定的学生，博士后研究员和在美国学习的早期研究人员参加的注册费。目标是扩大学生，博士后和早期研究人员（过去三年内任命的助理教授）的多元化群体的参与，包括妇女，代表性不足的少数民族，残疾人和弱势群体。在选择过程中将考虑到代表性不足的群体的成员，参与者所代表的机构的多样性，以及代表工程和生物学广泛领域的方案的多样性。这个全新的2023年GRC会议将使研究人员聚集在一起，讨论心血管生物力学，机械生物学及其在心血管疾病中的作用，同时促进所有参与者群体的积极参与，特别是年轻的研究人员，学生，女性，代表不足，和弱势群体，以确保未来的增长。2023年GRC会议是心血管生物学和疾病国际研讨会的重大扩展，它每年作为一个跨大西洋的小型会议举行。研讨会活动开始于2005年，当时是荷兰鹿特丹的心血管生物力学和成像小组的剪应力研讨会。自2012年以来，该研讨会一直在逐步扩大和发展为心血管生物学和疾病生物力学国际研讨会。2023年的GRC旨在提供一个论坛，汇集工程师，生物学家和临床医生谁研究心血管生物学和疾病的生物力学在全国和国际。该计划将有一个主题会议，八个会议，四个海报会议，和一个电源小时会议，将讨论生物力学力的影响，包括剪切应力和壁应力，对动脉粥样硬化，血栓形成和动脉瘤的病理生理学。该项目由CMMI分部的生物力学和机械生物学（BMMB）项目和CBET分部的生物医学系统工程（EBMS）项目支持。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。
