44th Northeast Bioengineering Conference

该奖项支持第44届东北生物工程会议，这是一个区域会议，为生物医学工程领域的本科生和研究生研究人员提供了一个机会，向广大听众展示他们的研究。该会议具有特别的影响，因为它允许没有资金的学生参加国家科学会议，向同学、地区教师和行业代表展示他们的工作。会议将于2018年3月28日至30日在德雷塞尔大学举行。该奖项主要支持减少所有与会者的学生注册费，使会议更加实惠。参加这样的会议的能力鼓励学生继续读研究生，追求学术生涯。会议预计将吸引来自美国东北部地区的约400名与会者，其中60 - 75%预计是学生。除了150张海报展示外，超过60%的平台演示将由学员进行。除了科学报告外，还将包括生物医学工程职业发展的会议，以专门支持受训者的专业发展。主旨演讲和全体会议发言人将重点介绍学术界和工业界的前沿研究领域。演讲的主题将包括：生物医学工程创业；Immunoengineering;儿科生物工程;神经工程学;和力学生物学。

This award supports the 44th Northeast Bioengineering Conference, a regional conference that provides an opportunity to undergraduate and graduate student researchers in the field of biomedical engineering to present their research to a broad audience. The conference has particular impact because it allows students who do not have the funding to attend a national scientific meeting to present their work to fellow students, regional faculty, and representatives from industry. The conference will be held on March 28-30, 2018, at Drexel University. The award primarily supports a reduction in student registration fees for all attendees, allowing the conference to be even more affordable. The ability to participate in conferences such as this encourages students to pursue graduate school and pursue an academic career. The conference expects to attract about 400 attendees from around the Northeast region of the United States, with 60 - 75% expected to be students. Over 60% of the platform presentations will be given by trainees, in addition to 150 poster presentations. In addition to scientific presentations, sessions on career development in biomedical engineering will be included to specifically support professional development of the trainees. Key Note and Plenary speakers will be used to highlight cutting edge areas of research in both academia and industry. Themes of the presentations will include: Biomedical Engineering Entrepreneurship; Immunoengineering; Pediatric Bioengineering; Neuroengineering; and Mechanobiology.
