We propose to establish the "Center for Integrative Biomedical Computing" and, through its work, to address important biomedical research problems in bioelectric fields, imaged-based anatomy, multi-scale tissue modeling and simulation, and scientific visualization. We will accomplish this by utilizing state-of-the-art computational techniques and innovative, well-engineered software, which, used in combination, will significantly advance biomedical computing research. For the renewal of this NCRR center, we propose an exciting combination of research and development aims built upon the successes of the previous investments and driven by compelling new biomedical problems. The proposed NCRR Center will expand in ways that will build on and enhance the strengths of the existing center. We will continue to develop integrated problemsolving environments that make advanced computational tools available to biomedical scientists. We will also continue to pursue advanced research in technical and biophysical approaches to bioelectric field problems in cardiology and neurology. With our interdisciplinary faculty members, we will continue to educate and train researchers to engage in biomedical computing, imaging, and visualization. In response to increasing requests from the field, we have greatly extended the number of Center collaborators. We will manage these collaborations through a "life cycle", beginning with initial discussions and evaluation of potential and proceeding through fruitful scientific and technological collaborations to, in some cases, separately funded research. We have assembled a team of first-rate bioengineers and computer scientists with proven track records in performing world-class research in biomedical computing, visualization, and imaging as well as in biomedical science. This team will bring to the Center the necessary experience and expertise to continue to create robust software and deliver it to the biomedical research community. We are confident that the proposed Center will be a significant force in taking biomedical computing, imaging, and visualization to new levels of sophistication and to widespread use.

我们建议建立“综合生物医学计算中心”，并通过其工作解决 生物电场、基于图像的解剖学、多尺度组织中的重要生物医学研究问题 建模和仿真，以及科学可视化。我们将通过使用最先进的技术来实现这一点 计算技术和创新的、精心设计的软件，结合使用，将 极大地推进了生物医学计算研究。对于这个NCRR中心的更新，我们建议一个 令人兴奋的研究和开发目标的结合，建立在以前投资的成功基础上 并受到引人注目的新生物医学问题的推动。拟议的NCRR中心将以以下方式扩展： 在现有中心的基础上再接再厉，增强优势。我们将继续开展一体化问题解决 为生物医学科学家提供先进计算工具的环境。我们还将 继续在生物电场问题的技术和生物物理方法方面进行高级研究 心脏病学和神经病学。 与我们的跨学科教职员工一起，我们将继续教育和培训研究人员从事 生物医学计算、成像和可视化。为回应外地不断增加的要求，我们已 极大地扩展了中心合作者的数量。我们将通过“生活”来管理这些合作 周期“，从初步讨论和评估潜力开始，通过富有成效的科学 以及技术合作，在某些情况下，单独资助研究。 我们组建了一支由一流生物工程师和计算机科学家组成的团队，他们在 在生物医学计算、可视化和成像以及生物医学方面进行世界级研究 科学。该团队将为中心带来必要的经验和专业知识，以继续创建 强大的软件，并将其交付给生物医学研究社区。我们有信心，拟议的 中心将成为将生物医学计算、成像和可视化提升到新水平的重要力量 成熟和广泛使用。
