Our CNB-ISB 2025 Satellite meeting: Muscle-Tendon Mechanics Across Species is officially on!

The Comparative Neuromuscular Biomechanics Technical Group (CNB), in collaboration with researchers at the Faculty of Sport and Health Sciences, University of Jyväskylä (JYU), and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam are planning a 2 day/3 night in-person satellite meeting in Helsinki, Finland July 23rd-26th 2025, prior to the ISB2025 Congress in Stockholm, Sweden.  The meeting location is Backby Manor. 

This meeting is being organized by Taylor Dick, Taija Finni, Neil Cronin, Jonas Rubenson, and Huub Maas and is currently sponsored by the Finnish Federation of Learned Societies, The Company of Biologists with meeting student and post-doc awards sponsored by The Journal of Experimental Biology and Delsys.

More details of the meeting can be found on the CNB website, with an open call for abstract submissions planned in early 2025.

 

CNB members at the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology (SICB) meeting 2025

Many CNB members will be attending the upcoming annual meeting of the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology in Atlanta, USA 3rd -7th January 2024.  SICB hosts a large number of scientists interested in human and comparative biomechanics, and we hope to encourage them to join CNB and become involved in the International Society for Biomechanics.  There are a variety of sessions within the program on biomechanics, neuromechanics and muscle physiology.


Here are a few sessions to keep an eye out for:

  • Muscles, Movement & Evolution: Commemorating Andrew Biewener's contributions to vertebrate biomechanics, January 6th
  • Muscle ch-ch-ch-ch-changes, January 4th
  • Case these joints, January 4th
  • Fleshing it out: recent advances in form, function and motor control of biological hydrostats, January 4th
  • (Muscle) work it real good, January 7th
