Euromech Colloquium CELLULAR MECHANOBIOLOGY AND MORPHOGENESIS
Dear Colleagues,
It gives us great pleasure to announce the Euromech Colloquium “CELLULAR MECHANOBIOLOGY AND MORPHOGENESIS” to be held in Sirmione, Italy, 21-24 August 2023 (https://638.euromech.org/).
The Colloquium provides a unique forum for scientists and engineers across the world to exchange ideas and identify new research directions toward understanding mechanobiological processes in the human body, contributing to modern medicine and shaping a safe and healthy future. Research breakthroughs in the field require an immense multidisciplinary effort, including novel imaging and measurement techniques as well as advanced theoretical and computational models. The focus of this Colloquium is to explore the mechanics of cytoskeletal contractility and protrusion, migration, adhesion, ECM remodeling, morphogenesis, and nuclear mechanotransduction.
Global leaders in the field, invited by the scientific committee, will present their research in a series of plenary talks (https://638.euromech.org/speakers/talks/).
We further invite interested scientists to present a poster in person and/or just attend our seminars and forums. All accepted posters will be collected in a book of posters that will be published on the Colloquium website. Poster applications should be submitted through this Google Form, with additional submission information provided therein.
The deadline for submission of poster abstracts is May 15 2023.
Due to generous sponsorship, we have been able to maintain a low registration fee for poster presenters and general attendees (€250 for early bird registration by 30 May). This fee covers attendance at the colloquium and the colloquium banquet which will take place in a local winery. We look forward to welcoming you to the wonderful city of Sirmione for what promises to be a very exciting and stimulating event.
