XII Annual Meeting of the Italian Chapter of the European Society of Biomechanics (ESB-ITA)

XII Annual Meeting of the Italian Chapter of the European Society of Biomechanics (ESB-ITA) is organized by Italian Chapter of the European Society of Biomechanics (ESB-ITA), International Congress Center SRL in / Centro Congressi Internazionale (CCI) S.R.L. a s.u. and will be held from Sep 18 - 19, 2023 at Polytechnic University of Turin, Torino, Piedmont, Italy.

Description:
The first day will be dedicated to the thematic symposium “Integrative biomechanics: advancing knowledge and technology from molecular to organ level”, while the second day to the advancements in the field of biomechanics in Italy.

Renowned international and national keynote speakers will deliver inspiring talks on frontier research and technologies in biomechanics.

The thematic symposium will focus on integrative biomechanics, which uses methods and tools in order to address fundamental and clinical problems through a multiscale approach, capable of considering the interaction of different scales of investigation.
In detail, integrative biomechanics entails the development of multi-scale and multi-organ, dynamic, interoperable, modular investigations, capable of accurately describing the individual patient pathophysiology, spanning different anatomical scales, from the molecular to cell, tissue, organ, and systems level. Applications can range from the development of new biomechanical knowledge to the creation of cutting-edge technologies and approaches for health and wellbeing.
