1007526AyersThe 2010 AIMBE Annual Event is the only meeting in the medical and biological engineering community with the specific goal to unite promising trends in science and engineering with public policy. Because AIMBE is comprised of the highest level of engineers and organizations, the membership has an enormous potential to improve society through engineering and science by influencing the direction of medical and biological engineering innovation. While the Annual Event attracts high-level professionals and engineers, attendance by students is often minimal. AIMBE's leadership would like to see a reversal of this trend.INTELLECTUAL MERITIn accordance with the National Science Foundation's goals to improve science and education initiatives, AIMBE's Annual Event holds a great amount of intellectual merit, as the speakers and programming are at the cutting edge of research and feature high-level discussions on the innovation and engineering concepts that are driving education and future research initiatives. With sufficient funding, students will be able to interact with and learn from engineering leaders about the future of innovation and how to manage the ethical considerations they need to take into account as they progress from students to researchers and innovators. Further, they will be exposed to leading organizations and some of the most dynamic individuals influencing medical and biological engineering research today.BROADER IMPACTThe broader impact of attending this event is that students will gain a greater view of the possibilities that come with a career in engineering and science, and hopefully be inspired to become future leaders in the field. They will gain an understanding of how policy impacts research and the ethical questions that all engineers should address. Students will have an intensive look at the direction of modern research and the many ways medical and biological engineering impacts society, through healthcare, food and water safety, technology, and a myriad of other areas.

1007526年人2010年AIMBE年度活动是医学和生物工程社区中唯一的会议，其特定目标是将科学和工程学的有希望的趋势与公共政策结合在一起。由于AIMBE由最高水平的工程师和组织组成，因此该会员资格通过影响医学和生物工程创新的方向来通过工程和科学来改善社会的巨大潜力。尽管年度活动吸引了高级专业人士和工程师，但学生的出勤通常很少。 Aimbe的领导希望看到这种趋势的逆转。智能企业符合国家科学基金会改善科学和教育计划的目标，AIMBE的年度活动具有很大的知识分子，因为演讲者和编程是研究的尖锐边缘，并在研究和工程学概念上促进了教育和未来研究倡议的高级讨论。凭借足够的资金，学生将能够与工程领导者互动并了解创新的未来以及如何管理他们从学生到研究人员和创新者的进步时需要考虑的道德考虑因素。此外，他们将接触到领先的组织和一些影响医学和生物工程研究的最具活力的人。Boader会影响参加此活动的更广泛的影响，即学生将对工程和科学领域的职业产生更大的看法，并希望受到启发，以使人们能够成为该领域的未来领导者。他们将了解政策如何影响研究以及所有工程师应解决的道德问题。学生将通过医疗保健，粮食和水安全，技术以及无数其他领域的医疗保健，食品和水安全，对现代研究的方向以及医学和生物工程影响社会的多种方式进行深入了解。
