Women in Engineering: solving real-life problems today for a better tomorrow
Five women engineers based at the Biotribology lab at Imperial Colleage London tell us about their work, their aspirations for the future, and the advice for other women caonsidering careers in engineering.
They tell us about their work to understand and recreate human cartilage to reduce the need for animal testing, to improve the longe

Original research papers, for oral or poster presentation, are invited for the following areas:

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. 

18th International conference on Wear of Materials

To register go to http://www.wom-conference.elsevier.com/registrationInfo.asp

Please check out the oral program for WOM 2011 at www.wom-conference.elsevier.com

Themes covered include

• orthopaedic surgery
• dentistry
• biomechanics
• biomaterials
• cosmetic chemistry
• biophysics
• biomimetics

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).
