2022 Summer Biomechanics, Bioengineering, and Biotransport Conference Student Paper Competition

As in past years, a Student Paper Competition (SPC) was held at the 2022 Summer Biomechanics, Bioengineering, and Biotransport Conference (SB3C). These sessions have traditionally been a highlight of the conference. There are three competition levels: Ph.D., M.S., and B.S. levels, with more than 220 abstracts submitted across all competitions. Each competition is divided into multiple technical areas to evaluate student work fairly. The Ph.D.-level competition featured six in-person podium presentations with 36 presenting finalists, whereas the M.S.- and B.S.-level competitions have dedicated poster sessions with in-person and virtual entries. There were also cash awards for the top student papers in each area.The 2022 ASME-BED/SB3C Student Paper Competition Committee, composed by Drs. Joao S. Soares (SPC Chair), Kristin Miller (Ph.D.-level SPC Chair), Megan Killian (M.S.-level SPC Chair), and Mariana Kersh (B.S.-level SPC Chair), thank all participating students, their coauthors and institutions, and the effort of 191 anonymous individuals from our community serving in diverse roles such as abstract reviewers, and in-person and virtual SPC judges. We also acknowledge sponsorship from ASME-BED, NIH, and NSF supporting the SPC. Without all these parts, the Student Paper Competition would not be such a great success and showcase high-quality research from our students.We are pleased to recognize the following awardees from
