Congratulations to all the Student Paper Competition Finalists at EMBC'08 in Vancouver, Canada!
The EMBS sponsors and technically co-sponsors a number of conferences each year. For a full list, please visit the main EMBS website.
EMBS also organises and hosts Summer Schools on a range of topics. For listings and more information, click here.
Each year the EMBS sponsors a major international conference that features diverse topics in the field of biomedical engineering. Regional and special topic conferences are also supported by EMBS. Student members are offered registration at reduced rates.
EMBS conferences provide you with the opportunity to present your research, find out about other projects, and meet other researchers and students in the field of biomedical engineering. At our meetings, we organize student events to help you meet other students. These include a social soiree, opportunities to meet leaders in biomedical engineering, special sessions to get students involved with EMBS and tours of universities and laboratories in the area.

"On behalf of the rest of the EMBS students that attended the 28th annual event in New York City in August 2006, I would like to thank the organizers for a great turn-out of the student events, especially for the skyline cruise reception ... it really was a well-thought event. The Student Activities were well-designed to bring together young researchers from across the world and present them with the unique opportunity to network, exchange ideas and set the ground for extensive future collaboration. Interacting with the corporate world is a key component in our education and training as future scientists. The Lunch with Leaders enhanced our collaboration with the leaders in the field from both the industrial and academic world, opening new perspectives beyond our training. In addition, we all know that New York City is a great touristic attraction, so while at the conference, I hope most of you had a chance to visit the Guggenheim Museum ... although under renovations, it had a fantastic temporary exhibit on the architectural work of Zaha Hadid! Let's keep up the good work and look forward to getting together again next summer in Lyon for the 29th EMBC event!"
