International Shoulder Group

We are pleased to be able to announce that the 2014 Conference of the International Shoulder Group will take place at the University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. The dates of the meeting will be 13 - 15 July, shortly after the 7th World Congress of Biomechanics in Boston.
Further details will be announced in due course.
 

As discussed at the recent ISG meeting, a special issue of Medical and Biological Engineering and Computing will be published, devoted to shoulder biomechanics. Full papers based on work presented at the 9th ISG Conference in Aberystwyth are invited, and the deadline for submissions will be 19 November 2012. Please follow the guidelines for authors of original articles given by MBEC here: http://www.springer.com/biomed/human+physiology/journal/11517.
 
When you submit your article, you will be able to select the Special Issue from a drop-down menu. We look forward to receiving your articles.

The programme and book of abstracts from the ISG2012 conference held in Aberystwyth has been added to the conference webpage, and can be downloaded here (pdf, ~10Mb).

The conference webpage has been updated with poster and podium presentation requirements as follows:
 
Posters should fit onto the display boards which are 1.8m high by 1.2m wide. Don't feel you need to fill that space as they are very big; a portrait A0 or landscape A1 poster will be fine! You are also welcome to bring a laptop or other display device to supplement your poster if you wish.
 
Podium presentations will be 15 minutes each. Please aim to speak for about 10 minutes, and allow 5 minutes for questions. A computer with Powerpoint and Acrobat Reader will be available.

This is to remind you all that 11 July is the final date for early-bird registration for the 2012 ISG conference. Fees will rise approximately 15% after this date. Please go to http://www.aber.ac.uk/en/visitors/forthcomingevents/ses12/registration/ to register. We look forward to seeing you in Aberystwyth in a few weeks!
