Biomaterials for hard tissue replacement ESB symposium is taking place at The International Bone Tissue Engineering Congress 7-9th November, 2008. Abstract deadline, 31st July.

Young Scientists Forum The YSF is an event, usually integrated in the annual conference of the ESB, that is aimed at discussing biomaterials education and training in Europe, emphasising the existing and emerging career, as well as research opportunities in the field. In these events discussion is fostered by creating an interactive environment amongst participants, thus promoting an enriching discussion on topics that concern everyone who graduated, or will do so, in Biomaterials. From the previous YSFs has resulted the creation of the "European Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering Doctoral Award" (EBTEDA). The first awards were announced in February 2006.
