Dear BIOMCH-L'ers
The organizers of the Second World Congress of Biomechanics, which was held
in Amsterdam in 1994, as joined in foundation "Stichting World Biomechanics",
have organized a one-day symposium. This symposium is the first of aa
series of annual symposia, which will each year cover a different area of
biomechanics and will consist of Dutch contributions except for the keynote
speaker. The symposium is open to attendants from outside the Netherlands.
If you are going to attend, please register by mail, fax or Email. The
address information and the registration information can be found at the end
of the program.
I am looking forward to see some of the 1994 participants of the Second World
Congress back in Amsterdam
Sincerely,
Leendert Blankevoort
