Summer School on Cell and Molecular Mechanics in BioMedicine

生物医学中的细胞和分子力学暑期班摘要在新成立的国际研究和教育机构联盟：全球微观力学和分子医学企业(GEM4)的框架下，提出了一系列年度暑期班，主题是“生物医学中的细胞和分子力学”。主要目标是教育研究人员和研究生细胞和分子生物力学的基本原理及其在医学上的应用，提供密集的学习体验，并促进工程师、生物学家和临床医生之间的互动。广泛的目标是帮助培训具有生物力学和分子医学深入知识的新一代研究人员，并帮助科学家和临床医生在生物分子、细胞、组织水平、动物模型和临床研究中应用生物力学方法。第一个暑期学校将于2006年8月在马萨诸塞州剑桥举办，重点是传染病。紧随其后的是2007年7月在新加坡举办的暑期学校，重点是癌症。

Summer SchoolonCell and Molecular Mechanics in BioMedicineAbstractA series of annual Summer Schools on "Cell and Molecular Mechanics in BioMedicine" is proposed under the umbrella of the newly formed international alliance of research and educational institutions: Global Enterprise for Micro-Mechanics and Molecular Medicine (GEM4). A principal objective will be to educate researchers and graduate students on the fundamentals of cell and molecular biomechanics and its applications in medicine, to provide an intense learning experience, and to facilitate interactions among engineers, biologists and clinicians. The broad goals are to help train a new generation of researchers with in-depth knowledge of biomechanics and molecular medicine and to help scientists and clinicians apply biomechanical approaches in biomolecular, cellular, tissue-level, animal-model and clinical studies. The first Summer School will be held in Cambridge, MA, during August 2006 with a focus on infectious diseases. This will be followed by a Summer School in July 2007 in Singapore with a focus on cancer.
