UC-Systemwide Bioengineering Symposium

描述（由申请人提供）：加州大学第14届全系统生物工程研讨会将于2013年6月19日至21日在加州大学圣地亚哥分校校园举行。研讨会包括所有10个校区的生物工程系和项目，是加州大学最重要的生物工程活动。研讨会的总体目标是将来自加州大学10个校区的生物工程学院、博士后、研究生和大四本科生聚集在一起，交流研究成果，建立合作关系，并开发和加速生物工程和生物医学成像的应用。本申请的具体目的是为来自代表性不足群体的研究生参加研讨会提供旅行支持。会议为研究生提供了绝佳的机会来做演讲，学习跨学科，多尺度的研究，并设计广泛的医学应用于人类健康。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of California 14th System-wide Bioengineering Symposium will be held on the campus of the University of California San Diego between June 19 and 21, 2013. The Symposium includes the bioengineering departments and programs of all ten campuses and is the premier bioengineering event at the University of California. The overall objective of the symposium is to bring together the bioengineering faculty, post-doctoral fellows, graduate and senior undergraduate students from the ten UC campuses to exchange research findings, to establish collaborations, and to develop and accelerate applications in bioengineering and biomedical imaging. The Specific Aim of this application is to provide travel support for graduate students from underrepresented groups to attend the Symposium. The conference provides outstanding opportunities for graduate students to make presentations, learn interdisciplinary, multi-scale research, and design a broad range of medical applications to human health.
