Not too late to register for ICMOBT 2011, Hawai'i, 11-15 December 2011. To view the full oral and poster programs or to register, go to www.mechanicsofmaterials.com

In response to an unprecedented demand for poster presentations at the upcoming ICMOBT meeting, a new submission route has been opened for “breaking news” posters that present the latest developments in the field. We’re looking to select an additional ten posters to be presented at the conference. If you are interested, please follow this  link http://csemails.elsevier.com/conf/templateabstract.doc and submit your poster to Jenny Wang jen.wang@elsevier.com before 30 November 2011 to ensure consideration by the committee. Decisions will be made by 2 December 2011.

There is a new European regulation (10/2011) addressing plastic materials and components intended for food contact. It is important to understand this regulation to ensure compliance, thus protecting your company when it becomes effective. The new regulation applies to all unreinforced and reinforced plastics, including those that are reinforced with glass fibres. This presentation addresses glass reinforced plastics and the necessary changes that you should be aware of. To see more go to www.reinforcedplastics.com

The 4th International Conference on the Mechanics of Biomaterials and Tissues, will take place in Hawai'i, USA, from 11-15 December 2011.

During the Acta Astronautica Editorial Board held at the 61st IAC, Prague September 2010, Editor-in-Chief Rupert Gerzer announced that due to his steadily and steeply increasing work load at the DLR, he felt it best to turn the reins of Editor-in-Chief over to the very qualified and able (Rock) Jeng-Shing Chern who has served as Comission IV Editor since 2008.

Dr Pat Campbell, Director of the Implant Retrieval Laboratory Los Angeles Orthopaedic Hospital, will be giving a Keynote Lecture at the ICoBT Imperial College London 18-21 September.  

The topic of her keynote will be implant retrieval analysis as a tool to investigate and solve clinical problems.  Metal-on-metal hip premature failure and revision is the focus of intense interest and controversy at present. 

Sessions will focus on Revision Studies, Implant Materials and Tribology Analysis of Implants. Join the debate at the ICoBT and submit a paper for presentation or attend the Conference.
