This award provides support for the Biomedical Engineering Society's Advanced Biomanufacturing Special Interest Group to hold its first conference on August 18-19, 2017, at the University of Wisconsin. The theme of the conference is "Biomanufacturing: Past Successes and Future Challenges." The small meeting will allow plenty of opportunity for networking between all attendees. The two-day conference will consist of keynote and plenary speeches, oral and poster presentations, panel discussions, a biotech showcase exhibition, and a tour to local biomanufacturing companies. In addition, to generate interaction between industry and academia, there will be a "un-conference," which is an interactive session where people coalesce around topics they are interested in with minimal guidance from conference organizers. Advanced biomanufacturing has become a focus area for advancement within the US economy. This conference will spur collaborations between academic researchers as well as between academia and industry in order to tackle some of the remaining challenges on the road to successful and efficient manufacturing of cellular and tissue components. Support of students and junior faculty to attend the conference will enhance their professional development by allowing them to participate in this focused conference and the networking activities with both established researchers and industry. Advanced biomanufacturing has become an area of national focus. The overall aim of this inaugural meeting is to stimulate collaborations and promote research and education programs in advanced biomanufacturing. Building on the success in protein and small molecule manufacturing, the focus of this meeting will be on the challenges faced in manufacturing of cells and tissues. The specific goals of the meeting are to: identify new collaboration opportunities between academia and industry; grow and sustain advanced biomanufacturing industries and research programs; form a community to share ideas, resources, and technologies; introduce junior investigators to research leaders and encourage interactions; and expose students to exciting research at the cutting edge of advanced biomanufacturing and regulatory sciences. The award will partially support travel for 12 keynote speakers, 8 graduate student travel awards, and 4 travel awards for junior faculty.

该奖项为生物医学工程学会高级生物制造特别兴趣小组于 2017 年 8 月 18 日至 19 日在威斯康星大学举行第一次会议提供支持。会议主题为“生物制造：过去的成功与未来的挑战”。 这次小型会议将为所有与会者提供充足的交流机会。 为期两天的会议将包括主题演讲和全体会议、口头和海报展示、小组讨论、生物技术展示以及参观当地生物制造公司。此外，为了促进工业界和学术界之间的互动，将会有一个“非会议”，这是一个互动会议，人们在会议组织者的最少指导下围绕他们感兴趣的主题进行交流。 先进生物制造已成为美国经济发展的重点领域。本次会议将促进学术研究人员之间以及学术界和工业界之间的合作，以解决成功和高效制造细胞和组织成分的道路上剩余的一些挑战。 支持学生和初级教师参加会议将通过让他们参加这次重点会议以及与知名研究人员和业界的交流活动来增强他们的专业发展。先进生物制造已成为国家重点关注的领域。这次首次会议的总体目标是促进先进生物制造领域的合作并促进研究和教育项目。基于蛋白质和小分子制造的成功，本次会议的重点将是细胞和组织制造中面临的挑战。会议的具体目标是： 确定学术界和工业界之间新的合作机会；发展和维持先进的生物制造产业和研究项目；组建社区来分享想法、资源和技术；将初级研究者介绍给研究领导者并鼓励互动；并使学生接触到先进生物制造和监管科学前沿的令人兴奋的研究。 该奖项将部分支持 12 位主讲人的旅行、8 个研究生旅行奖励和 4 个初级教师旅行奖励。
