DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The American Society of Mechanical Engineers Bioengineering Division hosts the annual Summer Bioengineering Conference with the general aim of providing a forum for bioengineering researchers and educators to present and discuss current trends in bioengineering over a wide range of subtopics. The uniting theme of the conference is biomechanics, encompassing molecular to tissue and organism- to whole body level approaches. The 2011 Summer Bioengineering Conference, to be held June 22-26, 2011 at the Nemacolin Woodlands Resort, Farmington, PA, will be the 13th installment of this conference, and will feature invited speakers, numerous workshops, podium sessions, poster sessions, a sponsor/exhibitor area, career fair, and specially highlighted student paper competitions at the BS, MS, and PhD levels. Student participation at this meeting has historically been excellent. Over half the attendee population at past conferences were students. Our Specific Aim is to maintain or increase student participation through a separate Call for Papers, and by reducing registration fees by $100 for students. A distinguishing feature of this conference is its relaxed atmosphere, promoted through our venue selection, casual dress, and some unscheduled time to permit informal interactions and exchange of ideas among new and experienced participants. By judicious selection of keynote speakers and workshops, we will offer students opportunities to experience emerging biomedical technologies that apply across disciplines. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The ASME Summer Bioengineering Conference brings together researchers and educators from a wide variety of biomechanics disciplines to share research progress and stimulate new developments. Topics range from musculoskeletal to cardiovascular, and include studies from the cellular and molecular to the organ and whole-body levels. A strong component of this conference is the emphasis on student participation, including specific oral and poster sessions, on technical as well as professional development topics, and encouragement of formal and informal interaction with more senior researchers.

描述（由申请人提供）：美国机械工程师学会生物工程部主办一年一度的夏季生物工程会议，其总体目标是为生物工程研究人员和教育工作者提供一个论坛，介绍和讨论生物工程在广泛的子主题上的当前趋势。会议的统一主题是生物力学，包括分子到组织和有机体到全身水平的方法。2011年夏季生物工程会议将于2011年6月22日至26日在宾夕法尼亚州法明顿的Nemacolin Woodlands度假村举行，这将是该会议的第13届会议，并将邀请演讲者，众多研讨会，讲台会议，海报会议，赞助商/参展商区，招聘会，以及特别突出的学士，硕士和博士学位的学生论文比赛。学生参加这次会议的情况历来都很好。在过去的会议上，超过一半的与会者是学生。我们的具体目标是通过单独的论文征集来保持或增加学生的参与，并为学生减少100美元的注册费。本次会议的一个显著特点是其轻松的氛围，通过我们的场地选择，休闲服装，以及一些不定期的时间来促进新老参与者之间的非正式互动和思想交流。通过明智地选择主题演讲者和研讨会，我们将为学生提供体验跨学科应用的新兴生物医学技术的机会。
