The ScopeTopics

Based on the huge success of the first two Euro BioMAT Symposia in Jena in 2011 and in Weimar in 2013, this international conference will be held now every two years in the Jena-Weimar Region. The symposium Euro BioMAT 2015 addresses the growing interest of science and industry in the different aspects of the creation, charac-terization, testing and application of biomaterials and closely related areas. The motivation is not only the recent scientific progress and new challenges of this exciting, strongly interdisciplinary field of science and engineering.

Materials scientists, physicists, chemists, biologists in industrial R&D as well as medical professionals are increasingly facing situations, where materials are confronted with high performance requirements and a challenging biological environment at the same time.

Much of the growth in the area of biomaterials emerged in the USA and Asia over the last years but Europe is gaining ground with a fast and steady growth in this field. The German Materials Society and its panel of experts in biomaterials address these developments with the Euro BioMat 2015 in Weimar. Euro BioMat 2015 will present and discuss the current state of progress in development, characterization, application, testing and modelling of biomaterials in basic science and industry. In addition, this symposium will bring together experts in closely related areas, such as biomimetics, biomineralization and biopolymers. The organizers at DGM feel a need to serve the European biomaterials community beyond the other European and world biomaterials con-gresses with a compact two-day meeting which brings together fasci-nating science and stimulating people in a delightful setting in historic Weimar in the very heart of Europe. The organizers look forward to receiving many contributions to the Euro BioMAT 2015.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Weimar 2015!
