Ninth International Conference on Modelling in Medicine and Biology,
Riga, Latvia
Advances in medical and biological technology are transforming medical care and treatment. In part, this is the result of the interaction and collaboration between medical sciences and engineering. This has resulted in substantial progress in health care and in the quality of life of the population.
Computer models in particular have been increasingly successful in simulating biological phenomena. These are lending support in many areas, including cardiovascular systems, the study of orthopaedics and biomechanics.
Another important contribution, due to the wide availability of computational facilities and the development of better numerical algorithms, is the ability to acquire, analyse, manage and visualise massive amounts of data.
The conference will cover a broad spectrum including the application of computers to simulate biomedical problems, ranging from cardiovascular modelling to virtual reality and simulation in surgery.For further information, please visit: http://www.wessex.ac.uk/11-conferences/biomed-2011.html(opens in new window)
