18th US National Congress for Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (USNC/TAM) will be held in Chicago, Illinion, on Jun 4 to 9 2018. USNC/TAM is held every four years. http://sites.northwestern.edu/usnctam2018/

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to invite you to submit an abstract to our symposium titled “362 Failure and Damage in Soft Materials: From Instabilies to Cracking” as part of the 18^th U.S. National Congress for Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (Northwestern University in Chicago, IL, June 4-9, 2018).

The deadline for abstract submission is November 10, 2017.

Present your research at ICoBT2018, 26-29 September 2018, Montreal, Canada. Oral and poster abstracts are invited on the conference topics and should be submitted using the online submission system by 20 April 2018.

Skin is the largest organ of the human body, and it offers a diagnostic interface rich with vital biological signals from the inner organs, blood vessels, muscles, and dermis/epidermis. Soft, flexible, and stretchable electronic devices provide a novel platform to interface with soft tissues for robotic feedback and control, regenerative medicine, and continuous health monitoring.

We invite applications for a research scientist to work in the area of applied mechanics and materials at A*STAR Institute of High Performance Computing (A*STAR IHPC).
