I/UCRC: Full Center Grant: I/UCRC for Cyber-Physical Systems for the Hospital Operating Room

拟议中的中心旨在建立一个新的工业/大学合作研究中心（I/UCRC），解决在医院和手术室环境中使用的网络物理系统的研究。该中心将专注于计算科学和技术，以推进，发展和促进计算外科科学的原理和技术的研究。 这将通过I/UCRC框架在学术、工业、医院和政府实体之间进行研究、开发、教育和技术交流来实现。 新中心旨在解决中央国家经济重要性的跨学科领域。该中心将奋进创造计算科学，机器人技术，生物医学工程和医学专业知识的融合，以积极影响高质量的程序和手术干预的交付。 拟议中的中心有可能汇集不同的成员公司和学者，以实现其目标，并催生新的初创企业。 该中心计划利用国际网络和计算外科新课程，以实现研究和学生的影响。

The proposed center seeks to establish a new Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) addressing the research of cyber-physical systems for use in the hospital and operating room environments. The center will focus on computational science and technologies to advance, develop and promote research into the principles and technology of computational surgery science. This will be achieved through research, development, education, and technology exchange among academic, industry, hospitals and government entities via the I/UCRC framework. The new center seeks to address an interdisciplinary area of central national economic importance. The center will endeavor to create a confluence of computational science, robotics, biomedical engineering, and medical expertise to positively impact the delivery of quality procedural and surgical interventions. The proposed center has the potential to bring together a diverse set of member companies and academics to achieve its goals as well as spawn new start-ups. The center plans to leverage an international network and new curriculum in computational surgery in order to achieve research and student impact.
