HSEMB
2005
The Houston Society for Engineering in Medicine and Biology (HSEMB)
announces its 22nd Annual Houston Conference on Biomedical Engineering
Research http://www.hsemb.org/ which will be held on 10-11 February,
2005 at the University Hilton Hotel, on the University of Houston
Campus. This city-based conference is unique in North America. It brings
together engineers, physicians, medical researchers, practitioners,
educators, and students from the many institutions and companies located
in Texas and Louisiana interested in discussing research and engineering
topics associated with the application of science and technology to
biology and medicine. The scope of the Conference Technical Program
ranges from nanotechnology to space medicine, and from molecular and
cellular engineering to robotics, and mechanical hearts and lungs. Many
of oral platform sessions include presentations by physicians, medical
researchers and engineers working in medical centers and biomedical
companies. The Conference features a seated luncheon each day, a talk
of general interest by a well-recognized luncheon speaker, and
Professional Awards presentations by HSEMB. A Young Investigator Award
of $1000 is sponsored by Millar Instruments, Inc. of Houston, the J.A.
Halter Award in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology is sponsored by
HSEMB ($500), and an Annual Student Poster Paper Competition is held
with a $200 prize awarded by HSEMB and sponsored by the Orthopaedic
Research Society for the Best Poster. There are also evening receptions
and social activities for registrants and their guests.
