Conference
Annual Conference of the German Society for Biomaterials
● Centre for Regenerative Therapies of TU Dresden (Fetscherstr. 105 in 01307 Dresden.)
Welcome
Dear colleagues and friends,
Dear members of the German Society for Biomaterials,
The annual meeting of our Society will take place in Dresden, 11 years after the last event there in autumn 2014. We will meet at the Centre for Regenerative Therapies of TU Dresden, located close to the historic city centre and the medicine campus in Dresden Johannstadt. The conference will start with the Young Scientist Event, organised independently by the YFS of the DGBM, on Wednesday, October 8th. The scientific programme will open on Thursday, October 9th in the morning and ends on Saturday, October 11th around noon. The conference will be a unique opportunity for exchanging the newest results of biomaterial-related research in Germany and abroad. It is intended to provide a platform especially for young scientists. Despite the short preparation time, we will put together an interesting and relevant programme. For this, we are looking forward to your contributions! Abstract submission shall open on April 7th.
See you in Dresden in autumn!
Best regards,
Michael Gelinsky
President of the German Society for Biomaterials & Conference Chairman
