  • Reminder: ESB Workshop 2009 Movement Biomechanics and Sport:Abstracts deadline February 1, 2009

    Reminder: European Society of Biomechanics 2009 Workshop
    Movement Biomechanics and Sport
    7-9 June 2009

    ETH Zurich, Science City, Zurich, Switzerland www.esb2009.ethz.ch

    DEADLINE FOR ABSTRACT SUBMISSION IS FEBRUARY 1, 2009.

    List of topics for free presentations:
    The workshop focuses on the influence of movement and sport on soft tissues, especially on muscles, ligaments and tendons. From a biomechanical point of view, the workshop welcomes abstracts reporting results from experiments, theoretical modelling, simulation, and new measurement techniques. Multiscale approaches are particularly encouraged.

    Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

    - Material response - mechanical effects of loading
    Load cases and boundary conditions
    Material characterization and modelling
    - System response - immediate and short term effects of loading
    Load cases during daily activities and sport
    Stimulation, injury, pain
    Mechanotransduction
    - System adaptation - long term effects of loading
    Mechanobiology, soft tissue adaptation
    Influence of health, age and gender
    Chronic pain
    Exercise

    Important dates:
    1. February 2009 Deadline for abstract submission
    15. March 2009 Notice of acceptance
    1. April 2009 Deadline for early registration
