2004 Annual Meeting: American Society of Biomechanics

描述(申请人提供)：- 2004年9月9日至11日在俄勒冈州波特兰举行的美国生物力学学会(ASB)第28届年会请求部分支持。 年会是生物力学多学科(即生物力学工程、运动科学和健康科学)之间交流信息的主要论坛，以促进科学交流，鼓励跨学科合作，并为学生和青年科学家提供一个促进职业发展的平台。为期三天的会议包括细胞和分子生物力学、关节神经力学、运动运动控制等领域的主题演讲、教程、讲台演讲和海报会议。 本次会议的重点是科学交流和学生参与。它特别为吸引指定奖项类别的学生和青年科学家而设计，并积极促进与资深科学家和导师的互动和交流。 请求提供部分支助，以帮助支付受邀主旨发言人的费用，维持较低的注册费以鼓励初级科学家和学生参加，并支付会议服务费、出版费和租用会议所需设备的费用。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): - Partial support is requested for the 28th annual meeting of the American Society of Biomechanics (ASB), hosted in Portland, Oregon from September 9th- 1lth, 2004. The annual meeting is the premier forum for the exchange of information among the multiple disciplines in biomechanics (i.e. biomechanical engineering, exercise science, and health sciences), to foster the scientific exchange, encourage interdisciplinary collaboration and pdvide a platform for students and young scientist to advance their career. The three day meeting involves keynote lectures, tutorials, podium presentations and poster sessions in areas of cell and molecular biomechanics, joint neuromechanics, motor control of movement. This conference has a strong focus on the scientific exchange and student participation. It is especially desinged to attract students and young scientist with designated award categories and fosters actively the interaction and communation with senior scientists and mentors. Partial support is requested to help covering costs of invited keynote speakers, to maintain low registration fees to encourage participation of junior scientists and students, and to defray epenses of conference services, publication costs, and renting of equipment essential for the conduct of the meeting.
