DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application describes a partnership between the City College of New York's Department of Biomedical Engineering and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center to establish collaborative cancer research and training activities in biomedical engineering. Rapid growth in this field has been driven by the recognition that advances in mechanical, chemical and electrical engineering have direct applications in medical care. Our specific objectives are: To develop and support time-limited pilot research in biomedical engineering, that will lead directly to investigator-initiated research proposals and papers addressing problems in cancer detection and treatment:  By supporting junior faculty through research mentorship, to ensure that they are able to compete successfully for federal support  By ensuring that CCNY BME faculty members have access to needed expertise and information regarding cancer biology and clinical issues  By developing forums at MSK that will familiarize investigators with emerging issues and collaborative opportunities in BME and cancer  By helping CCNY to attract top faculty candidates interested in cancer To develop mechanisms to train BME graduate and undergraduate students in cancer:  By providing necessary course work in the engineering school  By coordinating advisement, courses, and MSK lab placements  By pursuing support for training in BME and cancer research Two collaborative pilot projects are included in this submission.  Integrin Signaling, Microvascular Hyperpermeability and Tumor Metastasis  Improved Electrochemotherapy Protocols for the Treatment of Solid Tumors In addition, we describe plans to develop academic forums, faculty interest groups and training programs to stimulate and support the development of competitive proposals in biomedical engineering and cancer.

描述（由申请人提供）： 本申请描述了纽约城市学院生物医学工程系和纪念斯隆-凯特琳癌症中心之间的伙伴关系，以建立合作癌症研究和生物医学工程培训活动。这一领域的快速增长是由于认识到机械、化学和电气工程的进步直接应用于医疗保健。我们的具体目标是： 发展和支持生物医学工程中有时间限制的试点研究，这将直接导致癌症检测和治疗中的问题的研究提案和论文：  通过研究指导支持初级教师，以确保他们能够成功地竞争联邦支持  通过确保CCNY BME教职员工能够获得有关癌症生物学和临床问题的所需专业知识和信息，  通过在MSK举办论坛，使研究人员熟悉BME和癌症方面的新问题和合作机会  通过帮助CCNY吸引对癌症感兴趣的顶尖教师候选人 制定机制，培养BME研究生和本科生在癌症：  通过在工程学院提供必要的课程工作  通过协调实习、课程和MSK实验室实习，  通过寻求对BME和癌症研究培训的支持， 本文件中包括两个合作试点项目。  整合素信号转导、微血管通透性增高与肿瘤转移  实体瘤电化学治疗方案的改进 此外，我们描述了发展学术论坛，教师兴趣小组和培训计划的计划，以刺激和支持在生物医学工程和癌症的竞争性提案的发展。
