ESB2017 early bird, Mobility Awards, Membership Renewal and Endorsed Conferences
Dear Subscriber,
We are pleased to present the April 2017 news updates from the European Society of Biomechanics. All members are invited to contribute information of general interest, scientific articles, advertisements or particular items of discussion.
In particular for our forthcoming Spring 2017 newsletter we would be pleased to receive news of major awards or successes of our members (e.g. ERC Advanced Investigator) and news from our corporate members highlighting technological developments.

The ESB2017 organisers are looking forward to welcoming you to Seville.
Registration for the conference and for two exciting pre-courses is now open, with an early bird deadline of 5th May.
Call for Mobility Awards
The ESB Mobility Award aims to provide ESB members with financial assistance to carry out collaborative research in a foreign country as part of their PhD or early postdoctoral research. There are two awards available for 2017 on a competitive basis.
The deadline for applications is 31st May 2017. Click here for more details
ESB Membership Renewal for 2017
If you have not already paid your ESB membership fee for 2017, please log onto your member’s page at http://www.esbiomech.org to update your personal details and proceed to the fees payment. Only members in good standing are able to register for the ESB2017 meeting at the reduced member’s rate.
ESB endorsed conferences
52nd Human Response to Vibration Conference & Workshop (HRV2017)
5-6 September 2017
Shrivenham, UK
Website: http://www.HRV2017.co.uk
HRV2017 aims to cover all aspects of sound, shock and vibration effects on the human body. It would be of particular interest to Engineers, Scientists, Industry experts, Armed Forces personnel and Vibration specialists who work on human body vibration effects, on their incidence and on mitigation measures to alleviate these effects. Methodology will stretch from Epidemiological to Demographic; from Experimental to Modelling and Simulation; from Lab Measurements of exposure levels and their Preventative measures; from current Legal issues to Guidelines and industry Standards. Topics will cover Safety limits and thresholds; Discomfort, motion sickness and annoyance; Performance and physiological responses; Biodynamic and Pathological effects. All these are in the context of Building vibration and environmental noise; Road, off-road, or rail vehicles; Aircraft and marine crafts; Power tools and Simulators.
7th International Conference on Computational Bioengineering (ICCB2017)
6-8 September 2017
Compiègne, France
Website: http://iccb2017.bmbi.utc.fr/
The Seventh International Conference on Computational Bioengineering (ICCB2017) will be hosted at the Université de Technologie de Compiègne from 6 to 8 September 2017. The conference aims to share, promote, stimulate emerging interdisciplinary works focusing on advanced modelling techniques and ICT systems for physiological systems at different scales from molecular level to the population.
ECCOMAS Thematic Conference “Multiscale Problems in Biomechanics and Mechanobiology”
11-13 September 2017
Vienna, Austria
Website: http://multibiome2017.conf.tuwien.ac.at/home/
The MultiBioMe 2017 is the inaugural edition of a new, biennial series of scientific gatherings, offering a platform for presenting and discussing the latest advances and developments in the thriving fields of biomechanics and mechanobiology. In particular, the focus of this conference lies on reconciliation of the distinct spatial and time scales at which related processes and mechanisms occur, considering for that purpose the whole range of available techniques, including experimentation, imaging and visualization, mathematical modelling, as well as numerical simulation. For more details, also concerning abstract submission (deadline: June 15, 2017) and registration, please see the conference webpage: http://multibiome2017.conf.tuwien.ac.at/home/.
