There are only a few days left to submit your paper, if you would like your research to feature at the 4th International Conference on the Mechanics of Biomaterials and Tissues. Please go to the Abstract Submission page and register first, then upload your abstract. You will need the following information:
3 weeks left to submit your abstract for the International Conference on BioTribology (ICoBT 2011).
The topic of research must include a biological surface as part of the interface (eg articular cartilage, skin), have a direct impact on biological function (eg prosthetic joints, dental implants), or involve the implementation of natural lubrication in man-made systems (biomimetics).

Professors Mike Adams and Walter Herzog are the latest speakers to be announced, joining Professors Alfons Fisher and Greg Sawyer as key speakers during ICoBT 2011. For more information, go to http://www.biotribologyconference.com/speakers.asp
This conference will take place in Hawai'i, USA, 11-14 December 2011
Themes covered will include:
• Natural, biologically inspired and biomimetic materials• Hard (e.g. bone, teeth, metals, ceramics) and soft (e.g.cartilage, tendon, silk, polymers) tissues and materials• Mechanobiology, regenerative medicine and tissue engineering• Multiscale modelling and simulation of mechanical properties• Multiscale experimental characterization of biological tissues, including AFM, nanoindentation, optical tweezers
A new postdoctoral position in continuum mechanics is available at the Weizmann Institute of Science. Candidates should have a strong background in physics and/or theoretical mechanics, as well as experience with analytical and computational methods for solving partial differential equations. Possible projects include the mechanics of frictional sliding, the mechanics of biomaterials, the mechanics of glassy materials and dislocation-mediated plasticity. Highly motivated candidates are requested to send their CV, publications list and statement of research interests to Dr.
