Date: May 13-15, 2012
Abstract submission deadline: February 13th, 2012 **EXTENDED**
The mission of the 8th Annual Injury Biomechanics Symposium is to stimulate and reward strong injury biomechanics research among students and recent graduates. The Injury Biomechanics Symposium Committee invites abstracts of prospective presentations for the Injury Biomechanics Symposium. Abstracts are desired in all areas of traumatic injury biomechanics research, including human subject testing, sports injury studies, crash safety evaluation, and anthropomorphic dummy research. All selected podium presenters will prepare a written manuscript to be included in the symposium proceedings.
***TRAVEL STIPENDS***
-All selected oral and poster presenters will have their conference fees waived and will receive a travel stipend.
