Celebrations of ISB 50 years anniversary are starting.

Over the next months and until our next ISB Congress in Fukuoka 2023, ISB Now will highlight the activities ISB is promoting to celebrate this milestone! Make sure you are up to date on the activities!

This is the committee enrolled in the planning of the celebration activities, do not hesitate to write to any of them to suggest ideas and initiatives:

Alberto Leardini, Daniel Hahn, Katherine Boyer, Jennifer Shin, Anja-Verena Behling, Brent Edwards, John Challis, Joe Hamill, Elizabeth Clarke, Felipe Carpes, Lanie Gutierrez-Farewik, Veronique Feipel.

 

In this month's report we want to share the success of the "50 years sessions" at the WCB, the 9th World Congress of Biomechanics, which happened from the 10th to 14th July 2022. The ISB sessions during the WCB were very successful and with an impressive number of participants, who helped to highlight the importance of ISB in the development of the biomechanics around the world in these decades. The ISB hopes that these sessions served as motivation to more and more people follow our Society and joint our activities. Check below for some screenshots taken during the online event.
