The
Bioengineering Division of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers cordially

scientific program has been planned, including Plenary Lectures, Symposia,
Workshops, and Student Competitions. Both oral and poster sessions will be
presented in spectacular surroundings.

Student Paper Competition:
Abstracts are solicited for student paper competitions at the levels of BS, MS
and PhD. Students selected for the competition will be able to present their
work in sessions where only student presentations are given – both in dedicated
student poster sessions and in highlighted PhD oral sessions. Cash awards will
be made to the top papers at each level in multiple technical areas. Funds are being sought that would allow for
reduced conference registration for Student Paper Competition
participants. In addition, conference
organizers are currently negotiating for reduced lodging costs for all students
attending the conference.
