    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.)

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Track: Molecular, Cellular and Tissue Biomechanics (Co-chairs: R.L. Spilker and R.D. Kamm)
