Biomedical Engineering Society 2017 Annual Meeting

项目摘要/摘要 生物医学工程学会(BMES)是世界领先的专业学会，致力于 开发和利用工程和技术来增进人类健康和福祉。年度报告 BME会议将于2017年10月11日至14日在亚利桑那州凤凰城举行，约有4,000人参加 与会者和19个平行技术计划轨道提供2400多项研究和教育 讲台或海报形式的演示文稿。除了研究和教育演示外， BMES年度会议将为战略网络建设、职业发展和 进步，分享思想，认识和促进人才，发展和促进专业 提高妇女地位，并扩大服务不足和代表性不足群体的参与。 今年年会的主题是“工程个性化医学与治疗”。全体会议 演讲者、特别会议和行业事务活动旨在支持这一2017年的主题。在这 提案中，BMES请求美国国立卫生研究院为旅行奖励和活动提供支持 出席脆弱海洋生态系统2017年年会的代表各不相同。BMES还要求 支持教育小组和研究奖项，以支持包容性和促进在 继续在BME的教育途径和职业。我们建议透过以下途径运用这些资金： 学生研究奖 职业发展旅游大奖 NSBE会员旅游大奖 国立卫生研究院资助小组 面向黑人和西班牙裔生物工程师的生物工程教育和研究的途径 高中参观日 受益于NIH基金的获奖者将参与旨在支持网络和小团体的活动 互动，并将受益于对教育机会和成功途径的更多了解 在生物医学工程方面。以这种方式使用，国家卫生研究院的资金将通过加强生物多样性来影响脆弱海洋生态系统。 出席脆弱海洋生态系统2017年年度会议并支持纳入和促进继续取得成功 在BME教育途径和职业方面。

Project Summary/Abstract The Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) is the world’s leading society of professionals devoted to developing and using engineering and technology to advance human health and well-being. The Annual Meeting of the BMES will be held in Phoenix, Arizona from October 11-14, 2017 with approximately 4,000 attendees and 19 parallel technical Program Tracks providing over 2,400 research and education presentations in podium or poster presentation format. Beyond research and educational presentations, the Annual Meeting of the BMES will provide opportunities for strategic network building, career development and advancement, sharing ideas, recognizing and promoting talent, developing and promoting professional excellence and broadening the participation of underserved and underrepresented groups. The theme of this year’s Annual Meeting is “Engineering Personalized Medicine and Therapies.” Plenary speakers, special sessions and industry affairs activities are designed to support this 2017 theme. In this proposal, BMES requests support from the NIH for travel awards and activities that will contribute to a diverse representation of participants at the 2017 Annual Meeting of the BMES. BMES also requests support for educational panels and research awards that will support inclusion and promote success in continuing in the BME educational pathway and profession. We propose to apply these funds through:  Student Research Awards  Career Development Travel Awards  NSBE Member Travel Awards  NIH Funding Panel  Pathways to Bioengineering Education and Research for Black and Hispanic Bioengineers  High School Visitation Day Awardees benefiting from NIH funds will engage in events designed to support networking and small group interactions, and will benefit from increased knowledge of educational opportunities and pathways to success in biomedical engineering. Used in this manner, NIH funds will impact BMES by enhancing diversity of participants at the 2017 Annual Meeting of the BMES and support inclusion and promote success in continuing in the BME educational pathway and profession.
