Dear Colleagues,
I and my co-chair Ajit Yoganathan would like to personally invite you to the upcoming BMES meeting in Durham, NC, October 4-7,
2001. This year's meeting will be hosted by Duke, NC state and UNC@Chapel Hill.
As in past years, there will be two sessions dedicated to cardiac valves. This year, we will have one session focussed on heart
valve physiology and function, and a second on replacement heart valves (including mechanical, bioprosthetic, and tissue engineered
valves).
BMES has become an increasingly successful, highly visible forum for heart valve research and I strongly urge you to attend the
meeting and submit abstracts. Please note that the abstracts are very brief (250 words) and thus allow for more recent results.
All abstracts will be submitted electronically to the COS web site:
http://ams.cos.com/cgi-bin/login?institutionId=2196&meetingId=60
which is linked to the Duke BMES 2001 abstract web site:
http://BMES2001.egr.duke.edu/abstr_subm.htm
For the COS submission, you will need to get a user id and password, if you don't have one already.
Thanks in advance!
-Michael

"Systems of interacting forces and stimuli don't have to be very
complicated before the unaided human intuition can no longer
predict accurately what the net result should be. At this point
computer simulations, or other mathematical models, become
necessary. Without the aid of mechanicians, and others skilled
in simulation and modeling, developmental biology will remain a
prisoner of our inadequate and conflicting physical intuitions
and metaphors." - A.K. Harris courtesy of Dr. Steven Cowin
