[cmath] ICCEBS 2013 - Announce & Invitation

[iccebs at fe.up.pt]

Dear Colleague,
 

We are pleased to announce the International Conference on 
Computational and Experimental Biomedical Sciences (ICCEBS2013 - 
www.fe.up.pt/~iccebs) in Ponta Delgada, S Miguel Island, Azores, 
October 20-22, 2013.

The use of more robust, affordable and efficient techniques and 
technologies with application in Biomedical Sciences is presently 
a subject of huge interest and demand, and ICCEBS is intended to 
be a privileged discussion forum to define their key 
stakeholders.

ICCEBS will bring together researchers from around the world 
representing several scientific fields related to Biomedical 
Sciences, including Engineering, Medicine, Biomechanics, 
Bioengineering, Biomaterials, Experimental Mechanics, Computer 
Sciences, Computational Mathematics, Hardware Developers and 
Manufactures, Electronic and Instrumentation and Materials 
Science.

TOPICS
 
In ICCEBS2013 will be considered topics of (not limited to):
- Analysis and diagnosis;
- Applications in medicine;
- Applications in veterinary;
- Artificial organs;
- Bioengineering;
- Biofluid;
- Biological microelectromechanical systems, Labs-on-chips and 
Life-chips;
- Biomaterials;
- Biomedical devices;
- Computational bio- imaging and visualization;
- Computational methods;
- Computer aided diagnosis;
- Computer assisted surgery;
- Experimental mechanics;
- Implantology;
- Medical robotics;
- Minimally invasive devices and techniques;
- Molecular and Cellular Biomechanics;
