PROJECT SUMMARY ─ OVERALL Boise State University is an emerging research institution in the Mountain West. In the past 5 years, annual research awards have increased 58% to more than $65 million. The objective for the proposed COBRE in Convergent Engineering and Biomolecular Science (CEBS) is to enhance Boise State’s ability to contribute to solving the nation’s healthcare needs by increasing convergence between engineering and biomolecular science research. Advancements in healthcare will continue to rely on more evolved and complex devices, sensors, and integrated systems. The global medical devices market is expected to grow to $603.5 billion by 2023. For this advancement, engineers and biomolecular scientists must collaborate closely and create new transdisciplinary research areas. Researchers trained in outside disciplines often bring fresh perspectives, new approaches, and new technologies to the discipline. The overall program aims are to (1) support investigators in multidisciplinary collaborative research in devices, sensors, and systems; (2) establish an administrative core to support convergent research; and (3) form a consolidated Fabrication, Characterization, and Testing (FaCT) core. This COBRE will strengthen the professional development of junior investigators and CEBS related researchers through training workshops in grant writing and scientific publication. Importantly, convergent training workshops in the Science of Team Science will be utilized to improve communication across disciplines to build stronger research teams. Four existing service centers in the College of Engineering will be consolidated into the FaCT core to reduce redundancy, improve fiscal sustainability, and promote a biomedical engineering focus. The FaCT core is innovative because it is an engineering-based research core that is complementary to traditional biomedical research cores. The COBRE will support Pilot Projects and FaCT core vouchers to stimulate CEBS related research and use of the FaCT core. In summary, the CEBS COBRE provides a framework to sponsor strong convergent research among engineers and biomolecular scientists through training workshops, mentoring, networking, and access to a novel engineering core facility.

项目概要-总体 博伊西州立大学是一个新兴的研究机构在西部山区。过去5年，每年 研究经费增加了58%，达到6500多万美元。拟议的COBRE的目标是： 融合工程和生物分子科学（CEBS）是为了提高博伊西州的能力， 通过增加工程和生物分子之间的融合来解决国家的医疗保健需求 科学研究医疗保健的进步将继续依赖于更先进、更复杂的设备， 传感器和集成系统。全球医疗器械市场预计将增长至6035亿美元， 2023.为了实现这一进步，工程师和生物分子科学家必须密切合作，创造新的 跨学科研究领域。受过外部学科培训的研究人员经常带来新的观点， 方法和新技术的学科。总体计划的目标是（1）支持调查人员 在设备，传感器和系统的多学科合作研究;（2）建立一个管理 核心，以支持聚合研究;（3）形成一个统一的制造，表征和测试 （FaCT）核心。该COBRE将加强初级调查员和CEBS的专业发展 通过赠款撰写和科学出版物方面的培训讲习班，向相关研究人员提供培训。重要的是， 将利用团队科学中的聚合培训研讨会来改善沟通 跨学科，建立更强大的研究团队。工程学院现有四个服务中心 将被整合到FaCT核心，以减少冗余，提高财政可持续性，并促进 生物医学工程重点FaCT核心是创新的，因为它是一个基于工程的研究核心 这是对传统生物医学研究核心的补充。COBRE将支持试点项目， FaCT核心代金券，以刺激CEBS相关的研究和FaCT核心的使用。总而言之，CEBS COBRE提供了一个框架，以赞助工程师和生物分子之间的强有力的聚合研究。 科学家通过培训讲习班、指导、网络和使用新的工程核心设施。
