Connecting Communities: Bioengineering Locally and Globally

elcome to Philadelphia and the 2019 Annual Meeting of the Biomedical Engineering Society (#BMES2019). Thank you for making 2019 a record-breaking year for the Biomedical Engineering Society! We have broken records for numbers of attendees at our Annual Meeting, for numbers of abstracts submitted (nearly 4,000!), and for sponsors supporting our Society’s meeting.

WThe 19 research tracks represented at this meeting show the incredible diversity of work being done in our field today. This fundamental and translational research will positively benefit the lives of people all over the globe.

6 BMES 2019 | Philadelphia PRESIDENT'S WELCOME LETTER PRESIDENT'S With our Annual Meeting theme, “Connecting Communities: Bioengineering Locally and Globally” this meeting will build on the history of biomedical engineering to explore where biomedical engineering research and education will evolve in the future. The theme has a two-fold concept:

❑ Connecting research communities to create transdisciplinary projects with greater impact and translational potential, and

❑ Connecting education and outreach communities locally and globally to share best practices in developing the next generation of biomedical engineers. The vision includes highlighted research sessions and workshops that are jointly organized by multiple tracks, as well as showcasing educational innovation and outreach programs.

As we look at our Annual Meeting with 5,000+ in attendance, and a Society with more than 8,000 members, we appreciate the value of supporting these communities.

Be sure to use the many networking opportunities over the next four days to expand your cohort of colleagues. In particular, don’t miss the Friday Night Dessert Bash at the Franklin Institute Science Museum. The renowned venue will be a special place to celebrate your work and to connect with new people.

Make sure to network with your colleagues and intentionally greet and mentor some new ones. And work time into your schedule to listen to talks outside your area of expertise. Going outside your normal comfort zone will reap rewards for your career going forward.

Over the next four days, please give special attention to our impressive line-up of keynote speakers. The plenary sessions kick-off Thursday morning with Christopher Chen, MD, PhD, delivering the Robert A. Pritzker Distinguished Lecture. A BMES Fellow, Dr. Chen’s research focuses application of microfabrication and nanotechnology to cell and tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine. On Thursday evening, Steven D. Abramowitch, PhD, University of Pittsburgh, will deliver the Diversity Lecture. Dr. Abramowitch will present a case-study highlighting the critical role leadership plays in diversity and inclusion and the sustained impact that can result from principled advice to junior faculty.

BMES is delighted to collaborate once again with NIH on the NIBIB Lecture Friday morning featuring Rebecca Richards-Kortum, PhD, Department of Bioengineering, . Rebecca Richards-Kortum’s research and teaching focus is on the development of low-cost, high-performance technologies for remote and low-resource settings. She is known for providing vulnerable populations with access to life-saving health technologies that address diseases and conditions that cause high morbidity and mortality, such as cervical and oral cancer, premature birth, sickle cell disease and malaria.

Friday evening, Bruce Levine, PhD, the Barbara and Edward Netter Professor in Cancer Gene Therapy at the University of Pennsylvania, will deliver the Wallace H. Coulter Award for Healthcare Innovation Lecture. Dr. Levine will be using genetically engineered immunity to treat untreatable cancers and the road forward for patient access to these uniquely personal cellular therapies.

Finally, Saturday morning will feature the Rita Schaffer Young Investigator Lecture and the BMES Mid-Career Award Lecture. James Dahlman, PhD, will present the Rita Schaffer talk, and Celeste Nelson, PhD, will deliver the Mid-Career lecture. We look forward to these award- winning lectures with great anticipation as these visions of the future from young and mid- career investigators are so engaging. I encourage you to attend and perhaps apply for the awards in the future.

Join me in thanking our Conference Co-Chairs Jason Burdick, Alisa Morss Clyne and Ruth Ochia for their outstanding efforts. Also be sure to thank our extraordinary BMES Staff for ensuring this conference is fantastic and for advancing all of our BMES programs throughout the year. We also thank the National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Health for their continued sponsorship and contributions to our program, and all of our other sponsors. Finally, I thank you, our meeting attendees, for bringing your research to this conference and your dedication to the profession of Biomedical Engineering — together we will make the world a better and healthier place.

elcome to Philadelphia and the 2019 Annual Meeting of the Biomedical Engineering Society! This meeting emphasizes the theme “Connecting Communities: Bioengineering Locally and Globally” with a joint effort from three local Bioengineering programs: UPenn, Drexel, and Temple. Our theme has a two- fold concept: (1) connecting research communities to create multidisciplinary projects with greater impact Wand translational potential, and (2) connecting education and outreach communities locally and globally to share best practices in developing the next generation of biomedical engineers. We encourage you to explore the rich culture of the city of Philadelphia, including historical monuments such as Constitution Hall, educational resources such as the Franklin Institute, and creative spaces such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art. We are sure these experiences will inspire BMES Annual Meeting attendees to transform the future! We are proud to present an outstanding series of plenary sessions. The Pritzker Distinguished Lecture Award, the pre- mier award of our society, will be celebrated through a lecture by Dr. Christopher Chen from Boston University. Dr. Chen is a world leader in mechanobiology who has also made seminal contributions in stem cell research. The NIBIB lecturer will be global health pioneer Dr. Rebecca Richards-Kortum from Rice University. The Wallace H. Coulter Award for Healthcare Innovation lecture is Bruce Levine, who developed synthetic immune cells (CAR T-cells) to attack cancer. As BMES strongly supports our diverse community, we welcome our LGBT & Friends speaker: PA Representative Brian Sims; Minorities Lunch speaker: Dr. Marta Villarraga from Exponent, Inc.; Women's Lunch speaker: Dr. Beth Winkelstein from University of Pennsylvania; and our Diversity Award Lecturer: Dr. Steven Abramowitch from the University of Pittsburgh. We are happy to report more than 20 concurrent scientific sessions, in addition to numerous special sessions and workshops planned for this year’s meetings. This includes a series of seminars on Health Disparities ranging locally and globally, and a new session on bioengineering women’s health. We also have special sessions targeted to graduate and undergraduate students, such as the BMES Medtronic Student Design Competition and new BlazeDesign Workshop. Additionally, local high school students will explore bioengineering through a High School Expo and Poster Competition on Thursday. We’d like to thank the track chairs, reviewers and session chairs for all of their hard work in the development and im- plementation of the program this year. They had their work cut out for them this year with a record number of abstracts (nearly 4,000) and exhibitors (almost 150).
