2018 Connections in Smart Health Workshop

该提案支持2018年9月24日至26日在弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿举行的智能健康2018：主要调查人员研讨会中的联系。会议将把智能互联健康计划授予的项目的主要研究人员与其他研究人员聚集在一起，研究更广泛的社区中的智能健康。SCH计划的设立是为了弥合转变卫生和医疗保健所需的基础科学方面的空白，并将重点放在预防和以人为中心的护理上。智能健康中的连接研讨会旨在通过来自计算机科学、工程以及社会、行为和经济学科的基础研究来应对下一代在促进健康方面的挑战。讲习班的一个目的是为首席研究人员和其他聪明的卫生研究人员提供机会，探讨各种项目的研究进展，讨论当前的重要问题，以及与跨学科科学领域研究相关的未来挑战。讨论将得到主旨发言、小组讨论、与项目有关的海报、快速讲座和由参与者举办的研讨会的支持。预计此次会议将促进讨论、联系和合作，促进智能互联健康领域的进展。研讨会应该对参与者和智能互联健康计划的未来产生重大影响。研讨会的重点是支持互联社区内智能医疗增长的基础研究。讲习班的成果可能包括将通过出版物和讲习班网站向研究界宣传的新的研究方向。成果的发布应该让正在发展中的智能互联健康研究社区在其跨学科合作、教育活动中获得信息，并鼓励其他创新的研究方向。研讨会的更广泛影响是促进实地进展，并促进对话、联系和合作，从而为尽可能广泛的用户群体带来更知情、更有效的智能和互联健康研究和由此产生的技术。此外，首席调查员会议还将举办一个研讨会，以支持来自代表性不足的STEM学科的十名学生参加PI研讨会。这也应该有助于通过为寻求在智能和互联医疗领域工作的新的调查人员提供指导和支持来促进该领域的发展。这一奖项反映了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。

This proposal supports the Connections in Smart Health 2018: Principal Investigators Workshop in Arlington, VA on September 24-26, 2018. The meeting will bring together principal investigators of projects awarded by the Smart and Connected Health program from with other researchers looking at smart health in the broader community. The SCH program was set up in order to bridge gaps in fundamental science necessary to transform health and healthcare, as well as to be focused on prevention and person-centered care. Connections in Smart Health Workshop is designed to address the next generation of challenges in advancing health with foundational research from the computer science, engineering and the social, behavioral and economic disciplines. An objective of the Workshop is to provide an opportunity for the principal investigators and other smart health researchers to explore research progress in a diverse set of projects and discuss important current issues, as well as future challenges associated with research in transdisciplinary scientific areas. The discussions will be supported by keynotes, panels, project-related posters, rapid talks and participant-generated workshops. It is anticipated that the meeting will stimulate discussions, connections, and collaborations that will facilitate progress in the area of Smart and Connected Health. The workshop should have a significant impact on the participants and the future of the Smart and Connected Health program. The focus of the workshop is on foundational research that supports the growth of smart health within connected communities. The workshop results are likely to include new research directions that will be publicized to the research community through publications and a workshop website. The results dissemination should inform and the developing Smart and Connected Health research community in their transdisciplinary collaboration, educational activities, and spur other innovative research directions. The broader impacts of the workshop are to facilitate progress in the field and stimulate conversations, connections, and collaborations that will lead toward better informed and effective smart and connected health research and resulting technologies for the broadest possible user populations. Additionally, there will be a workshop attached to the Principal Investigator meeting that will support the travel for ten students from under-represented STEM disciplines to attend the PI Workshop. This should also help grow the field by providing mentorship and support for a new cadre of investigators looking to do work in the Smart and Connected Health area.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.
