Biofluid Symposium (21-24, June, 2021) has attracted 120 participants from 8 countries, including 29 speakers. The symposium ended with great success. Thank you very much!
Biofluid mechanics has gathered significant attention from various research communities such as physical and material sciences, engineering, biology and medicine. In particular, novel computational and theoretical techniques, mathematical models and methods are all required to understand complex motions in biological phenomena. In this RIMS symposium, after the week of RIMS Tutorial Seminar, we have an opportunity for students and researchers all around biofluid mechanics to meet and share their knowledges, methods, recent research results, and current trends. This symposium is held as part of RIMS Research Project 'Biofluids2021'
Date: June 21 (Monday) - June 24 (Thursday), 2021
Venue: Hybrid (onsite participants at Maskawa Hall, North Campus, Kyoto University & online participants)
The symposium is held only online due to the situation of covid-19.
