  • IMechE Hip Conference, LONDON, 3-4 November 2015. ABSTRACT DEADLINE EXTENDED

    ABSTRACT DEADLINE EXTENDED TO 22 MAY

    NOTE REGISTRATION FEES OF £110 for authors, £100 for PhD students

    The latest hip conference organised by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers will be held in Westminster in London, on 3-4 November 2015.

    This conference will review current challenges in hip surgery, rehabilitation and outcomes including advances in assessment techniques, emerging technologies and materials. Also reviewed will be challenges in bringing new technology to market and early interventional surgery and rehabilitation that aims to prevent osteoarthritis.
    It will consider conventional hip arthroplasty, the materials, tribology and fixation of implants, whilst failure investigations into arthroplasty and early interventional surgery will be performed.


    Faculty:
    Markus Heller (Southampton)
    Tom Joyce (Newcastle)
    Phil Glasgow (Ulster)
    Gordon Blunn (London)
    Phil Noble (Texas)
    Nick Bishop (Hamburg)
    Mike Tuke (MatOrtho)
    Graham Issac (DePuy Synthes)
    Fares Haddad (London)
    Sarah Muirhead-Allwood (London)
    Marcus Bankes (London)
    Secretary of State for Health (TBC after election)
