USA & Italy: Biomechanists Outlining New Directions
September 24-27, 2023
Naples, Italy
Overview
The goal of this Italy-USA workshop is to bring together researchers with diverse cultural and research backgrounds working in experimental, theoretical, and computational biomechanics across different scales to advance the field of biomechanics and their professional development. The researchers will have various levels of experience, ranging from graduate students and postdoctoral students to junior and senior scientists, and they will come from different institutions in the USA, Italy, and Europe. The workshop will serve as a place to share untapped ideas in the biomechanics field, creating international teams of researchers that can work together to solve challenging problems in biomechanics.
