Scope and objectives:

We are pleased to invite both new and previous participants to CMBBE2010 which is to be held at the Westin Hotel, Valencia, Spain, 24–27 February 2010. The themes and topics for this 9th symposium in the series have been developed through interaction with international experts and therefore reflect the latest development in computer methods in biomechanics, biomedical technology and modelling of biological structures. Key objectives are to highlight and communicate new areas of future potential as well as presenting new techniques that are being successfully applied across medical technology, biomechanics and the healthcare sector. Interdisciplinary research which overarches medical technology, imaging/tissue characterisation, biosciences and applications in clinical practice will be placed at the forefront of the meeting agenda.

Topics and Special Sessions

Features and format of the meeting:

• 30 Plenary presentations by keynote speakers
• 30 Oral and 6 poster presentation sessions
• Special sessions on emerging topics
• Software and medical technology exhibits
• Sponsored prizes for best research papers and posters
• Young researchers are very welcome and reduced fee together with significant student prizes are offered

The meeting has always promoted international collaboration and networking and this is evidenced through the well known research groups, commercial companies and scientific organisations who continue to present their research and also support and sponsor the CMBBE series. If you wish to exhibit, sponsor or organise a special session then please do contact the organisers.
