Student Travel Grant: Sixth IEEE International Conference on Healthcare Informatics (ICHI 2018)

该项目是为了支持博士生旅行和参加2018年6月4日至7日在纽约纽约举行的IEEE国际医疗信息学会议（ICHI 2018）。ICHI2018会议为专注于计算，健康和生物信息学的学生提供了一个支持性的科学论坛。 ICHI2018为专家和同行对学生研究的评论提供了一个论坛，目的是提高他们的科学水平。学生参与者还将有机会获得国际公认专家的网络支持和职业建议。总体而言，旅行支持将学生与专家聚集在一起，否则他们可能不会相互接触，并从事针对健康领域科学的多学科研究。该提案通过提供一个学生博士生联盟来支持博士生，该联盟的重点是鼓励学生从多个角度向同行和专家学习，以了解创新计算和信息学如何结合联合收割机，从而在健康领域产生最大的影响。此外，学生参与会议上提供的快速会谈和圆桌讨论，使学生能够探索他们的科学，并评估该领域研究人员的不同职业道路。ICHI2018会议旨在帮助参与者了解不同的学科方法，支持与与会者建立联系，并旨在支持下一代健康和生物信息学学者的发展。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This project is to support doctoral student travel and participation in the IEEE International Conference on Healthcare Informatics (ICHI 2018) in New York, New York from June 4-7, 2018. The ICHI2018 conference provides a supportive scientific forum for students focusing on computing, health- and bioinformatics. ICHI2018 provides a forum for expert and peer critique of students' research with the goal of improving their science. Student participants will also have the opportunity to receive networking support and career advice from internationally-recognized experts. Overall, the travel support brings together students with experts who might not otherwise engage with one another and engage in multidisciplinary research targeting science the area of health. This proposal supports doctoral students by providing a Student Doctoral Consortium focused on encouraging students to learn from peers and experts from multiple perspectives to understand how innovative computing and informatics combine to have the greatest impact in the area of health. In addition, student participation in rapid talks and roundtable discussions provided at the conference enables students to explore their science and evaluate different career paths for researchers in this area. The ICHI2018 conference exposes participants to different disciplinary approaches, supports networking with conference attendees and is designed to support the development of the next generation of scholars in health- and bioinformatics.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.
