    First announcement and call for papers.

    European Society of Biomechanics Workshop 2007
    Finite Element Modelling in Biomechanics and Mechanobiology


    DATES: Sunday 26th August to Tuesday 28th August 2007
    VENUE: Museum Building, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland
    WEBSITE: http://www.tcd.ie/bioengineering/esb2007/


    AIM AND SCOPE

    The Trinity Centre for Bioengineering, Trinity College Dublin, will host the
    2007 European Society of Biomechanics thematic workshop on Finite Element
    Modelling in Biomechanics and Mechanobiology.
    The workshop will be structured around three main application domains, each
    with two subtopics:

    Application of FEM to tissues and implants
    * Tissue mechanics (e.g. constitutive modelling of soft and hard tissues)
    * Implants and medical devices

    Advanced Applications
    * High-Resolution FE
    * Patient-Specific FE

    Using FEM in Mechanobiology
    * Bone Remodelling
    * Tissue Differentiation


    FORMAT

    The workshop aims to provide students and interested researchers with an
    introduction to the application of the finite element method to biomechanics.
    It will combine a mixture of tutorial and state-of-the-art review lectures by
    leading researchers in each application domain along with the opportunity for
    research students to present their work in free papers. Furthermore, it is
    intended that special informal mentoring sessions will be held after the free
    papers in which students can seek advice from the leading researchers in
    their field of study.
