Student/Scientist Workshop: A Satellite Session for Progress in Clinical Motor Control I: Neurorehabilitation (PCMC1) Conference; University Park, Pennsylvania; July 23-25, 2018

2018年《临床运动控制进展I：神经康复》(PCMC1)大会将于2018年7月23-25日在宾夕法尼亚州立大学大学园区举行。这次会议将为研究人员、从业者和教育工作者提供一个主要的跨学科平台，让他们听取顶尖学者关于最近的研究和技术创新，以及将这些进展整合到神经康复领域的实际挑战。会议的焦点之一--神经康复领域的人机交互--与国家科学基金会的“思维、机器和运动联系”(M3X)计划的目标非常一致。该项目将支持将在PCMC1会议第一天举行的讲习班。这一多学科研讨会将提供教育/指导活动，将运动控制领域的研究生介绍给跨越工程、基础科学和临床领域的科学领袖。这个工作坊将使学生/教师能够以个性化的形式讨论职业发展、资质和科学规划。通过培养研究生和他们可能不会接触的资深科学家之间的专业关系，该项目将服务于国家利益，并推进NSF促进科学进步和促进国民健康的使命。因此，这次研讨会的学术价值和更广泛的影响与国家科学基金会的使命非常一致。该项目计划在一个讲习班中支持18名研究生和6名教员，该讲习班旨在促进下一代工程师和科学家的职业发展，促进对神经康复领域内人/机交互的理解。学生将从提交摘要的人中挑选出来。遴选将基于科学价值和尝试获得广泛的参与多样性。导师将从会议演讲者中挑选，在内容、专业知识、性别和种族/民族背景方面具有多样性的代表性。参加会议是研究生院经验中有价值和重要的一部分；拟议的研讨会将通过让学生接触到高级研究人员和各自领域的前沿工作来扩大这种经验。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The 2018 "Progress in Clinical Motor Control I: Neurorehabilitation" (PCMC1) Conference will be held from July 23-25, 2018, on the Pennsylvania State University, University Park campus. This conference will provide a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners and educators to hear from top scholars on recent research and technological innovations, as well as practical challenges in integrating these advances into the field of neurorehabiliation. One focus of the conference - Human / Machine Interactions within the field of neurorehabilitation - is well-aligned with the objectives of the National Science Foundation's "Mind, Machine and Motor Nexus" (M3X) program. This project will support a workshop to be held on day 1 of the PCMC1 conference. This multidisciplinary workshop will provide educational/mentorship activities introducing graduate students in the field of Motor Control to scientific leaders spanning the engineering, basic science, and clinical domains. This workshop will enable student/faculty discussion on career development, grantsmanship, and scientific planning in a personalized format. By cultivating professional relationships between graduate students and senior scientists with whom they might not otherwise engage, this project will serve the national interest and advance the NSF mission to promote the progress of science and to advance the national health. As such, the intellectual merit and broader impacts of this workshop are well aligned with the mission of the NSF. The project plans to support eighteen graduate students and six faculty in a workshop designed to foster career development for the next generation of engineers and scientists advancing understanding of human/machine interactions within the field of Neurorehabilitation. Students will be selected from among those who submit abstracts. Selection will be based both on scientific merit and an attempt to obtain broad diversity of participation. Mentors will be selected from conference speakers to have diversity of representation in terms of content expertise, gender, and racial/ethnic background. Participation in conferences is a valuable and important part of the graduate school experience; the proposed workshop will augment that experience by exposing students to senior researchers and leading-edge work in their fields.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
