Date: 19-21 September 2011
The seminar will be held next week after the IRCOBI 2011 Conference (http://www.ircobi.org/conference.php) that is organized in Kraków (Cracow), Poland, from 14th to 16th September 2011.
Place:
Polish Academy of Sciences
International Centre of Biocybernetics
Warsaw, Poland
Form:
• Systematic course (1.5-2 days) of problems and methods of biomechanics of impact/injury, presented by invited experts form IRCOBI Council (http://www.ircobi.org/).
• Presentations on research results proposed by participants.
• We strongly encourage, especially participants starting their research career to prepare short presentations of their research work /research ideas. Presence of leading experts in the field will give you an unique opportunity for valuable discussion.
