The field of implant materials is now moving from static concepts to dynamic biomaterials that can adapt to stimuli from the living environment. It is an exciting time for biomaterial research. The same is true for robotics, as soft actuated and responsive materials pave the way for the rapidly emerging field of “soft robotics”, from the nano- to the macroscale. The 9th International Conference on Mechanics of Biomaterials and Tissues provides a unique international forum for researchers and practicing engineers from different disciplines to interact and exchange their latest results.

The Linz Winter Workshop will focus on biological single-molecule research, nano-science, nano-medicine, cell-science and bio-nanotechnology and include force and optical microscopy/spectroscopy techniques. This year, special sessions on nano-medicine and high-speed atomic force microstcopy will be organized.

This school aims at training students and researchers to master fluorescent markers used in advanced fluorescence bioimaging: their diversity, how they actually work and what are their current development. It will be organized at the Ecole de Physique des Houches, in the french Alps, from March 17th to 22th, 2024

The aim of this symposium is to promote cross-disciplinary understanding and establish a common framework for studies that link energy consumption, muscle function and locomotor mechanics in terrestrial, aerial and aquatic locomotion. The meeting will bring together key innovators working across the traditional boundaries of biomechanics, ecology and physiology to examine multidisciplinary approaches for investigating how animals use energy to power movement. We want speakers to be forward-thinking, even speculative, with an emphasis on novel approaches and questions to address in their field and opportunities for integration across disciplines.

Microscopy, Histopathology and Analytics provides a forum for presenting the latest research in tissue microscopy and computational analysis, as well as laboratory-based analytics and fluidics, along with the challenges of translating such developments into the clinic. Topics central to this meeting are novel forms of microscopy, computational modeling and algorithms, novel contrast agents and clinical analytics. Example application areas are clinical diagnostics/prognostics and decision support, surgical and non-surgical therapy guidance, high-throughput drug screening and biomarker evaluation.

Since 2014, HTCC workshops have tackled the most fascinating achievements in both experimental methods and theoretical approaches, that have recently brought structural research to the forefront of natural sciences. We try to bring together leading experts in selected domains as lecturers, and motivated scientists in crystallography or related fields as “students”, who may come from both academia and industry, and who are interested in acquiring new knowledge on cutting-edge methods in structural science and exploring ways to apply them in their ongoing research. Since HTCC4 held in 2019, HTCCs are dedicated exclusively to macromolecular crystallography and are taking place in Dubrovnik, one of the most shiny gems of the entire Mediterranean. The IUCr Newsletter (No. 2, 2023) published a comprehensive report from the HTCC5. This year, we are proudly inviting you to the sixth edition of the series, HTCC6 – advanced macromolecular crystallography workshop, which will be held in Dubrovnik, Croatia, from 7th to 12th April, 2024.

HTCC6 is entirely dedicated to structural biology. Over four days, we shall explore structural research of biological macromolecules (proteins, nucleic acids and their complexes) from a highly practical perspective, putting special emphasis on crystallization, data collection, data processing, and database (CSD, PDB and NDB) digging.

The conference is hosted by the DST/NRF SARChI Chair (M3B2) and the Department of Mathematics & Applied Mathematics, University of Pretoria.

The annual international conference on Mathematical Methods and Models in Biosciences (Biomath) will take place from 16 June to 22 June 2024 in the Cutty Sark Resort, Scottburgh, South Africa. Biomath 2024 is devoted to recent research in life sciences based on applications of mathematics as well as mathematics applied to or motivated by biological studies. It is a multidisciplinary meeting forum for researchers who develop and apply mathematical and computational tools to the study of phenomena in the broad fields of biology, ecology, medicine, biophysics, biochemistry, pharmacokinetics, chemoinformatics, biotechnology, bioengineering, environmental science, etc.

Living cells have evolved robust mechanisms to coordinate the activity of many different molecules in space and time. For example, cells concentrate specific molecules into membrane-less compartments called biomolecular condensates. Experimentalists have generated an ever-growing list of condensates, which participate in diverse biological functions, such as gene expression, signal transduction, and neurotransmission. In addition, these condensates exhibit a wide range of lifetimes, sizes, mechanochemical properties, and architectures. Despite recent progress in characterizing molecular interactions leading to condensation, how the emergent physical properties of condensates mediate their biological functions is poorly understood. This conference will bring together a diverse group of theorists and experimentalists currently probing this structure-function problem of biomolecular condensates.
