2014 MRS Symposium H: Micro/Nano Engineering and Devices for Molecular and Cellular Manipulation, Stimulation and Analysis; Boston, Massachusetts; 30 November - 5 December 2014

该奖项是对2014年MRS会议H研讨会的部分支持，研讨会主题是分子和细胞操纵、刺激和分析的微/纳米工程和设备。这一重要的国际会议将为讨论分子和细胞传感、刺激和表征方面的生物医学研究的最新发展提供一个单一的论坛。这一领域的主要研究人员定期举行会议是必要的，以交流思想、信息和最新技术，以促进和加速生物医学科学和纳米制造领域的进步和突破。这一国际研讨会是将基础科学与工程学联系起来，开发纳米技术生物医学应用的关键机制，这对美国和世界经济都具有重要意义。这次研讨会为公开交流新的和以前未发表的科学思想提供了一种手段。它将包括专题介绍以及国际与会者之间的广泛讨论和互动。这次会议有助于在纳米技术、纳米制造和生物医学工程的许多领域产生和孵化突破性和变革性的想法。这个奖项将部分支持初级参与者的参与，包括本科生和研究生、博士后研究员和职业生涯早期的教职员工。这笔资金将支持12名与会者出席会议和颁发本科生奖项。

This award is for the partial support of the 2014 MRS Meeting Symposium H on Micro/Nano Engineering and Devices for Molecular and Cellular Manipulation, Stimulation and Analysis. This major international meeting will provide a single forum for discussion of the latest developments in biomedical research in molecular and cellular sensing, stimulation, and characterization. Regular meetings of the key researchers in this field are necessary for the exchange of ideas, information, and state-of-the-art technologies, in order to enable and accelerate advances and breakthroughs in the fields of biomedical science and nanomanufacturing. This international symposium is a key mechanism for linking basic science with engineering towards the development of nanotechnology-enabled biomedical applications, which are of significant importance to the US and world economies. This symposium offers a means for the open exchange of new and previously unpublished scientific ideas. It will include presentations and extended discussions and interactions among international participants. This gathering has been instrumental in the generation and incubation of breakthrough and transformative ideas in many areas of nanotechnology, nanomanufacturing and biomedical engineering.This award will partially support the participation of junior participants, including undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and early career faculty members. The funds will support the attendance at the conference of 12 participants and undergraduate awards.
