Bioengineering integrates principles from a diversity of technical and biomedical fields, and the resulting multi-disciplinary research is providing new basic understandings, novel products, and innovative technologies that improve basic knowledge, human health, and quality of life. Bioengineering also crosses the boundaries of scientific disciplines that are represented throughout academia, Federal laboratories, and industry. Solicited here, under the auspices of BECON, are grant applications that propose bioengineering research projects that serve the mission of one or more of the participating NIH institutes or centers.
