DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Georgia Institute of Technology's Petit Institute for Bioengineering and Bioscience is partnering for the second time with the University of Pittsburgh's McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine to organize and host the 17th Annual Hilton Head Workshop for Regenerative Medicine. The Hilton Head Workshop for Regenerative Medicine is an annual conference series initiated by Georgia Tech in 1997. The conference goals are to promote discussion, advance knowledge, and foster the formation of collaborative relationships between academic researchers, clinicians, and industry leaders to advance the science and the development of patient therapies. Conference keynote speakers are considered the foremost experts in their fields, and the conference attracts both a national and international audience. With new discoveries occurring almost weekly, particularly in the area of stem cell research, forums that allow scientists, bioengineers, and clinicians to interact and learn from one another are essential to the development of collaborative research initiatives and for identifying new research directions. The 2013 conference theme is "Regenerative Medicine: Technologies Enabling Novel Therapies" and will focus on progress and challenges with regenerative medicine in clinical applications. Session topics will highlight induced pluripotent stem cells, endogenous repair mechanisms, and immunological effects of regeneration, biomaterials, and clinical applications, among others. The Hilton Head Workshop is unique in that it is kept small (less than 230 participants) to maximize interactions and networking so that true collaborations can emerge. The conference provides professional development and networking opportunities for graduate students and postdoctoral trainees that include participation in a poster presentation session, as well as plenary presentation opportunities for outstanding poster abstracts. The purpose of this proposal is to provide conference fee and travel funds for 24 students and postdoctoral trainees and six young faculties to attend the conference. The conference will be rigorously publicized to attract women and underrepresented minorities, with particular focus on historically black universities and medical schools, as well as individuals with disabilities.

描述(由申请人提供)：佐治亚理工学院的Petit生物工程和生物科学研究所第二次与匹兹堡大学的McGowan再生医学研究所合作，组织并主办第17届希尔顿再生医学年度负责人研讨会。希尔顿再生医学负责人研讨会是佐治亚理工学院于1997年发起的年度会议系列活动。会议的目标是促进讨论，推进知识，并促进学术研究人员、临床医生和行业领导者之间形成合作关系，以促进患者治疗的科学和发展。会议主旨演讲者被认为是各自领域的顶尖专家，会议吸引了国内和国际的 观众。随着几乎每周都有新的发现，特别是在干细胞研究领域，让科学家、生物工程师和临床医生相互交流和学习的论坛对于合作研究计划的发展和确定新的研究方向至关重要。2013年会议的主题是“再生医学：使新疗法成为可能的技术”，并将重点讨论再生医学在临床应用中的进展和挑战。课程主题将重点介绍诱导多能干细胞、内源性修复机制、再生的免疫学效应、生物材料和临床应用等。希尔顿海德研讨会的独特之处在于，它的规模保持在较小的水平(不到230人)，以最大限度地提高互动和网络联系，从而实现真正的合作。会议为研究生和博士后实习生提供职业发展和网络机会，包括参加海报展示会议，以及优秀海报摘要的全体展示机会。这项提议的目的是为24名学生和博士后实习生以及6名青年教职员工提供参加会议的会议费和旅费。大会将进行严格的宣传，以吸引女性和代表性不足的少数族裔，特别关注历史上的黑人大学和医学院，以及残疾人。
