International Shoulder Group

Due to popular demand, the deadline for abstracts to the 2012 ISG conference will be extended by one week. If you have not already done so, please send me your abstracts by Wednesday the 28th of March.
 
Details of where to send it are on the main conference page.
 
Thanks and apologies to those of you who stayed up all night to get it to me today!

We are pleased to announce two updates regarding the ISG conference next year. The first is that selected papers will be published as full articles in a special issue of Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing (MBEC) following the conference. The second is that the ISB has kindly agreed to award a number of travel grants for students wanting to attend technical group meetings next year. For details of this scheme, see the ISB website.

For those of you coming to the ISB meeting in Belgium in a few weeks, there is a set of sessions devoted to the Technical Groups on the Wednesday morning. As such, there is a special session for the ISG there (Session IX.1 - TG Shoulder, Wednesday 08:30 - 09:45) too, in addition to a number of other sessions featuring shoulder and upper limb biomechanics.
 
We hope to see you there!

We are pleased to announce that the dates for the 2012 Conference of the ISG have been set. The meeting will take place from the 22nd to the 24th August 2012 at Abersytwyth University in Wales, UK. Details on the call for papers and other important dates will follow in due course.
 
We look forward to seeing you here in Aberystwyth!
