This award supports the 44th Northeast Bioengineering Conference, a regional conference that provides an opportunity to undergraduate and graduate student researchers in the field of biomedical engineering to present their research to a broad audience. The conference has particular impact because it allows students who do not have the funding to attend a national scientific meeting to present their work to fellow students, regional faculty, and representatives from industry. The conference will be held on March 28-30, 2018, at Drexel University. The award primarily supports a reduction in student registration fees for all attendees, allowing the conference to be even more affordable. The ability to participate in conferences such as this encourages students to pursue graduate school and pursue an academic career. The conference expects to attract about 400 attendees from around the Northeast region of the United States, with 60 - 75% expected to be students. Over 60% of the platform presentations will be given by trainees, in addition to 150 poster presentations. In addition to scientific presentations, sessions on career development in biomedical engineering will be included to specifically support professional development of the trainees. Key Note and Plenary speakers will be used to highlight cutting edge areas of research in both academia and industry. Themes of the presentations will include: Biomedical Engineering Entrepreneurship; Immunoengineering; Pediatric Bioengineering; Neuroengineering; and Mechanobiology.

该奖项支持第 44 届东北生物工程会议，这是一个区域性会议，为生物医学工程领域的本科生和研究生研究人员提供了向广大观众展示他们的研究成果的机会。该会议具有特殊的影响力，因为它允许没有资金参加全国科学会议的学生向同学、地区教师和行业代表展示他们的工作。会议将于2018年3月28日至30日在德雷塞尔大学举行。该奖项主要支持减少所有与会者的学生注册费，使会议更加实惠。参加此类会议的能力鼓励学生攻读研究生并追求学术生涯。会议预计将吸引来自美国东北部地区的约 400 名与会者，其中 60-75% 预计是学生。超过60%的平台演讲将由学员进行，此外还有150场海报演讲。除了科学演讲外，还将包括生物医学工程职业发展课程，以专门支持学员的专业发展。主旨演讲和全体会议发言人将重点介绍学术界和工业界的前沿研究领域。演讲主题包括：生物医学工程创业；免疫工程；儿科生物工程；神经工程；和机械生物学。
