  • Biomaterials in APHYS-2003 International Meeting

    Dear Colleagues

    This is to inform you that the Call for Abstracts for the forthcoming
    International Meeting on Applied Physics (APHYS-2003), to be held during
    October 14-18th 2003 in Badajoz (Spain), is now opened. All the information
    regarding this interdisciplinary conference can be found at the Conference
    website

    www.formatex.org/aphys2003/aphys2003.htm

    Pre-conference Workshop: International Interdisciplinar Workshop on
    Bioengineered Non-crystalline Solids

    As you probably already know, Materials Science and Engineering will be one
    of the most important topics to be covered in this International and truly
    interdisciplinar Conference. Within this topic, a International Workshop on
    Non-crystalline solids for Biomedical Applications, will be held as
    pre-conference event. You can find all the information about the Workshop
    and the rest of the Conference at the above address. Some of the topics to
    be covered will be:

    Novel Biomedical Materials Based on Glasses
    Thin Films and Surfaces for Bioactivity and Biomedical Applications
    Bioactive Glass Composites for Tissue Engineering
    Thin film coating of bioactive glass-ceramics onto metal and ceramic
    substrates using sol-gel chemistry
    Non-crystalline or semicristalline polymers
    Development of new glasses and glass fibers
    Processing and manufacture of ceramics, glass and related materials
    Sintering and Plasma Spray Deposition of Bioactive Glass-Matrix Composites
    for Biomedical Applications
    Glass ceramics for biomedical applications
    Glass ceramics with special mechanical properties
    Glass ceramics for joining possessing adjusted thermal expansion and good
    mechanical properties, also at high temperatures
    Studies on bio-glass and bio-glass-ceramic coatings on metals and ceramics
    (interfaces)
    Studies on composites for biomedical applications
    Bioactive glass-ceramics dental and orthopaedic cements and composite
    biomaterials
    Interaction between Ceramics and Tissue, Ceramics for Bone and Joint
    Replacement and Repair, Dental Ceramics, Investment Materials,
    Hydroxyapatite, Sol Gel Processing of Ceramics and Glass
    Bioactive glass-ceramic implants
    Relaxation behaviour of polymer, glass and glass fibers
    Relation between the structure and the properties of glasses and glass
    fibers
    Optimization of fiber drawing process

    Another pre-Workshop on with interest for the Biomedical Materials community
    ("Workshop on Modern Applied Microscopy in Molecular and Cell Biophysics
    Research") will be also held.

    These are some of the other topics to be covered during APHYS-2003:

    - Surfaces, Interfaces and Colloids
    - Imaging Techniques, Microscopy
    - Nano-sciences and Technologies
    - Materials Science & Engineering
    - Biomedical Engineering and Biomaterials Science&Engineering
    - Biophysics, Biological & Medical Physics
    - Computational Physics
    - Radiation Physics, Applied Nuclear Physics/chemistry, Radiation Protection

    APHYS-2003 will also serve as a platform to search for partners for
    transnational collaboration projects, specially for the EU Sixth Framework
    Program (NETworks of Excellence and Integrated Projects). "Projects
    Presentations" and "Call for Partners" presentations proposals are therefore
    encouraged and welcomed. If you are interested in taking part of this
    Conference feature, please send us the corresponding form available at the
    website.

    In addition to the "traditional" oral contributed and posters presentation,
    a Virtual Participation modality has been established for those researchers
    unable to attend it in person. A limited number of works can be presented in
    this way. Please refer to the Conference website for details.

    If you are interested in taking part of APHYS-2003, please send us your
    PRE-REGISTRATION FORM (at the main website of the conference) as soon as
    possible. The pre-registration form is also available through the direct URL
    http://www.formatex.org/aphys2003/preregistration.htm

    Deadline for abstracts submission is April 15th 2003 although we highly
    recommend you to submit your abstracts as soon as possible to avoid
    saturation during the days before the deadine.

    Proceedings
    Accepted and presented papers will be reviewed for publication in special
    issues of several international Journals:
    - Journal of Microscopy
    - Journal of Non-crystalline Solids
    - Applied Surface Science
    - Colloids and Surfaces A
    - Powder Technology (to be confirmed)
    - Microelectronics Journal
    - Physica Scripta
    - Radiation Protection Dosimetry
    - Applied Physics A (Materials Science & Processing, to be confirmed).
    - Biomedial Materials and Engineering

    Also a book "Advances in Applied Physics" will be published by an
    international publisher (Kluwer or the American Institute of Physics, with
    those papers accepted for presentation but not suitable for the journal
    issues.For up-to-date information on publications participating at the
    Conference as publishers, please visit regularly the Conference website
    (Proceedings
    sections).

    For any question or suggestion, please do not hesitate to contact us at
    secretariat@formatex.org, or visit www.formatex.org/aphys2003/aphys2003.htm
    (Bookmark the page!!) We would also appreciate if could disseminate this
    Call for Papers through your Department or Institution.

    We hope to meet you at this exciting and interdisciplinar international
    meeting!
