Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, USA, June 10-13, 2013
**************************************************

The Dynamic Walking conference brings together researchers studying animal walking or running and researchers designing legged robots, exoskeletons, or prosthetics to gain insight into the fundamental principles that underlie legged locomotion. Topics central to dynamic walking include energetics, stability and control, predictive principles and models, dynamic modeling, empirical data with a conceptual tie in, and robot successes and failures. This conference puts less emphasis on vision, navigation, or kinematic motion planning. Participation will be limited to maximize quality, exchange of ideas, and potential for future collaborations. Participation by graduate students is encouraged.

Important Dates:
Abstract submission window opens: Jan 10
Abstract submission deadline: Feb. 10
Acceptance of notifications: April 3
