DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 2002 Gordon Research Conference on Lasers in Medicine and biology will be held from July 14-19, 2002 at Kimball Union Academy in Meriden, New Hampshire. The intent of the conference is to gather investigators from academia, governmental agencies, national laboratories and industry to examine future applications of lasers and optical sciences in medicine and surgery. Particular emphasis is placed on technological advances that are close to clinical application and/or commercial development. Sessions include: Optical Coherence Tomography; Nanotechnologies for Optical Sensing, Imaging, and Manipulation; Biological Applications of Micro-optical Devices; Combined Imaging Methodologies; Fluorescence Methods for Biomedical Diagnostics; Advances in Optical Microscopy; Intra-vital Imaging and Microscopy; Wavefront Sensing and Adaptive Optics in Vision Correction; and Photodynamic Therapy. Seven of the nine sessions include at least one talk with substantial applications in the area of cancer diagnostics. An important focus of the Gordon Conference is to bring students and post-doctoral fellows in biomedical engineering together with academic engineers and scientists, clinicians and members of industry to discuss and define the most important questions and problems to be solved in this field. Ample time between sessions has been schedule to foster informal discussion of new ideas emerging from the conference. In addition to traditional scientific presentations, we have organized two special symposia to facilitate this discussion process. The first symposium, "Career Paths in Biomedical Engineering", will feature short presentations from clinicians and engineers in academia, industry and government to provide career advice to graduate students and post-doctoral fellows. The second symposium, a special industrial forum, will highlight new technologic developments on the cusp of clinical viability. Industrial participants will each make a brief presentation followed by questions and answers. Both symposia will conclude with a general discussion followed by a reception. Finally, a special issue of the Journal of Biomedical Optics will be devoted to Optical Detection: Clinical and Industrial Advances. Conference attendees presenting talks or posters will be invited to submit their work for this special issue.

描述（由申请人提供）：2002年戈登激光医学和生物学研究会议将于2002年7月14日至19日在新罕布什尔州梅里登的金博尔联合学院举行。 会议的目的是聚集来自学术界、政府机构、国家实验室和工业界的研究人员，研究激光和光学科学在医学和外科领域的未来应用。 特别强调接近临床应用和/或商业开发的技术进步。 会议包括：光学相干层析成像光学传感、成像和操作的纳米技术;微光学器件的生物应用;组合成像方法;生物医学诊断的荧光方法;光学显微镜的进展;活体成像和显微镜;波前传感和自适应光学在视力矫正中的应用;以及光动力学疗法。 九个会议中的七个包括至少一个在癌症诊断领域具有实质性应用的谈话。 戈登会议的一个重要重点是将生物医学工程的学生和博士后研究员与学术工程师和科学家，临床医生和行业成员聚集在一起，讨论和定义该领域最重要的问题和待解决的问题。 在两届会议之间安排了充足的时间，以促进对会议产生的新想法进行非正式讨论。 除了传统的科学报告外，我们还组织了两次特别研讨会，以促进这一讨论进程。 第一个研讨会，“生物医学工程的职业道路”，将有来自学术界，工业界和政府的临床医生和工程师的简短演讲，为研究生和博士后研究员提供职业建议。 第二次研讨会是一个特殊的工业论坛，将突出临床可行性尖端的新技术发展。 工业与会者将分别作简短的介绍，然后进行问答。 两个研讨会都将以一般性讨论结束，然后举行招待会。 最后，生物医学光学杂志的特刊将致力于光学检测：临床和工业进展。 将邀请出席会议的演讲者或海报提交他们为这一特刊所做的工作。
