Dear PMRM participants,
On behalf of the organizator committee, I must inform you that the Polymeric Materials for Regenerative Medicine conference that was scheduled for September 16-18 2009
must be cancelled due to economic difficulties that we have experienced during the organization of the conference. The possibility of reprogramming the conference at a future date will be evaluated. We will inform you if the conference is re-scheduled.
I thank you very much for your interest in PMRM2009,
Martin Bureau
PMRM2009 Chair

Who should attend?

The Organizing Committee wishes to invite scientists, engineers and clinicians from academia, government laboratories and industry involved in polymeric materials development and implementation in regenerative medicine to share their latest development.

This symposium will gather scientists and engineers involved in formulation, design and modification of polymers together with scientists and clinicians involved in biomedical and medical sciences to discuss their activities and interests in areas related to the following topics:

  • Bone & soft tissue repair and regeneration
  • Scaffolds for tissue engineering
  • Biomodification of materials
  • Bone and cartilage biomaterials
  • Cardiovascular biomaterials
  • Structural and biomechanical characterization
  • Nerve and Nerve guide regeneration
  • Tissue engineering
  • Polymeric biomaterials
  • Bioresorbable polymers
  • Cell – material interaction
  • Biocompatibility
  • Dental biomaterials
  • Artificial skin
