    CALL FOR PAPERS

    2001 Summer Bioengineering Conference

    Snowbird, Utah
    June 27 - July 1, 2001

    Dear Colleagues:

    The Bioengineering Division of the American Society of
    Mechanical Engineers cordially invites your attendance at
    the 2001 Summer Bioengineering Conference. The meeting will
    be cosponsored by the Biomedical Engineering Society, the
    American Institute for Chemical Engineering, and the
    Biophysical Society. An outstanding scientific program has
    been planned with Plenary Lectures, Symposia, Tutorials,
    Student Competition as well as Oral and Poster Sessions in a
    spectacular surrounding. Submissions of abstracts in all
    areas of biomechanics and bioengineering are invited. In
    addition special sessions are planned at the conference
    including:

    Cellular:
    Protein Mechanics
