Dear Colleagues
Following on from Ton van den Bogert's message on May 1st, I would like to share the following
information regarding this year's Biomedical Engineering Society meeting. There will be strong
biomechanics and biomaterials components at this year's meeting, as refelcted in the following
tracks and sessions. (Note that each session could have up to 6 presentations which means
there will probably be over 200 podium presentations in the biomechanics or biomaterials areas.)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
