The South African Society of Biomechanics (SASB) is entering an exciting new phase in 2025 with the addition of three new board members. This year, we are committed to fostering collaboration, sharing cutting-edge research, and driving innovation in applied biomechanics. Our theme, "Beyond Frontiers: Bridging the Gap Between Science and Practice," highlights the importance of translating biomechanics research into real-world impact.
Join us for the SASB 2025 Conference, a pivotal gathering for the biomechanics community in South Africa. Taking place on 4-5 September 2025, this year’s event will be hosted at the School of Tourism and Hospitality at the University of Johannesburg’s Auckland Park Bunting Road Campus. Attendees will engage in thought-provoking discussions, cutting-edge research presentations, and networking opportunities aimed at bridging the gap between science and practice.
The call for abstracts opened on the 28 February, inviting researchers to showcase their work and contribute to the advancement of applied biomechanics. Submissions will close on 30 April, with acceptance notifications sent out by 1 June.
Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of a growing movement dedicated to innovation and collaboration in biomechanics. Register on our website @ https://biomechsa.org/
