DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 31st Annual Meeting of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society will be held in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA, between September 2 and 6, 2009. The theme for the conference is: "Engineering the Future of Biomedicine". The intended emphasis is on the translation of bioengineering approaches to the practice of medicine and healthcare. The General Conference Chair is Dr. Bin He, the Co-general Conference Chair is Dr. Yongmin Kim, the Scientific Program Chair is Dr. Xiaochuan Pan, and the Scientific Program Co-chair is Dr. Gregory Worrell, respectively. The intended audience for the conference is very diverse, encompassing broad variation in thematic areas and expertise (including engineers, scientists, medical researchers, practitioners, educators, and students). Thematic areas include all of biomedical engineering diverse fields, among which traditional ones, such as signal processing, neural engineering and image processing, coexist together with emerging areas such as tissue engineering and technology commercialization. Interdisciplinary research is very much at the forefront of bioengineering, and the composition of the conference attendees will reflect this. The scientific program of the conference is articulated among oral scientific sessions, poster sessions and invited mini-symposia. Contributed oral and poster presentations are refereed and included in the PubMed searchable database, in addition to being published in the conference proceedings. The specific aim of this R13 proposal is to seek registration and travel funds to increase the participation of junior scientists (graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and junior faculty) to the scientific activities of the conference. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE STATEMENT (provided by applicant): This R13 proposal seeks registration and travel funds from NIH to increase the participation of junior scientists, including graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty, to the scientific activities of the 31st Annual Meeting of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Biomedical engineering is currently the fastest growing area in academic and applied engineering, and there is a strong need for state of the art training. The intent of this grant is to broaden the participation of junior scientists in scientific activities of this leading international conference on biomedical engineering.

第31届IEEE医学与生物工程学会年会将于2009年9月2日至6日在美国明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯市举行。会议的主题是：“工程生物医学的未来”。目的是强调生物工程方法的医学和保健实践的翻译。大会主席是贺斌博士，联席会议主席是金永敏博士，科学项目主席是潘小川博士，科学项目联合主席是Gregory Worrell博士。会议的预期受众非常多样化，涵盖了主题领域和专业知识的广泛差异（包括工程师、科学家、医学研究人员、从业人员、教育工作者和学生）。专题领域包括生物医学工程各个领域，其中传统领域如信号处理、神经工程、图像处理等与新兴领域如组织工程、技术商业化等并存。跨学科研究是生物工程的前沿，会议参加者的构成将反映这一点。会议的科学计划包括口头科学会议、海报会议和受邀的小型专题讨论会。除了在会议论文集中发表外，所提供的口头和海报报告也将被审核并纳入PubMed可搜索数据库。本次R13提案的具体目的是寻求注册和旅行资金，以增加初级科学家（研究生，博士后研究员和初级教师）对会议科学活动的参与。
