项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The 2016 Biomechanics and Neural Control of Movement meeting will bring together experts in musculoskeletal biomechanics, neuroscience, muscle physiology, clinical medicine, and biomedical engineering on the 20th anniversary of a seminal meeting on the same topic. The 1996 meeting had a profound impact on human movement science. Many of the world's best scientists and engineers studying motor control and rehabilitation interacted directly with postdoctoral scholars and graduate students at a small, isolated conference center. A large percentage of the graduate students and postdoctoral scholars that attended the 1996 meeting went on to become leaders in their fields. We will hold the 2016 Biomechanics and Neural Control of Movement meeting at the same conference center in Mt. Sterling, OH, and use a similar meeting format to generate open discussion and debate about the current state of the science of human movement control and rehabilitation. The meeting will have a single presentation track to bring together all 120 attendees in one room and extensive time will be scheduled for discussions around the presentations. This proposal seeks to obtain funding for 20 graduate student/postdoctoral researcher travel awards in order to defray costs of attendance for the next generation of human movement science scholars. At least half of the travel awards will go to individuals from underrepresented backgrounds based on race, ethnicity, disability status, or sex. The meeting will also include a one-to-one mentoring program for graduate students and postdoctoral scholars to foster networking and interaction between attendees from different institutions. The requested funds will help make the meeting available to a wider possible audience and encourage the success of future biomedical research leaders.

描述（由申请人提供）：2016 年生物力学和运动神经控制会议将汇集肌肉骨骼生物力学、神经科学、肌肉生理学、临床医学和生物医学工程领域的专家，纪念 1996 年关于同一主题的开创性会议 20 周年。会议对人类运动科学产生了深远的影响，许多世界上最优秀的研究运动控制和康复的科学家和工程师与博士后学者和研究生进行了直接互动。参加 1996 年会议的研究生和博士后学者中有很大一部分后来成为各自领域的领导者，我们将在同一会议中心举办 2016 年生物力学和运动神经控制会议。会议将在俄亥俄州斯特林山举行，并使用类似的会议形式就人类运动控制和康复科学的现状进行公开讨论和辩论。会议将采用单一的演讲方式，将所有 120 名与会者聚集在一起。该提案旨在为 20 名研究生/博士后研究员的旅行奖励安排一个房间和大量的时间，以支付下一代人体运动科学学者至少一半的出席费用。旅行奖将根据种族、民族、残疾状况或性别颁发给来自代表性不足的个人。会议还将包括针对研究生和博士后学者的一对一指导计划，以促进来自不同与会者之间的网络和互动。所请求的资金将提供帮助。使会议向更广泛的受众开放，并鼓励未来生物医学研究领导者取得成功。
