Dear Colleagues and Friends,
We are pleased to announce the 2nd European Congress on Biomedical and Veterinary Engineering (BioMedVetMech), which will take place on October 18, 19, and 20, 2024, on behalf of the Croatian Society for Orthopedic Engineering (ORTHOING).
"Engineering for all of us - how engineering may enhance the well-being of both humans and animals!" is the congress's theme. The transdisciplinary Congress will cover a broad spectrum of scientific topics related to veterinary and biomedical engineering. Topics covered include the development of medical and veterinary technology, instruments and devices, the use of cutting-edge treatment techniques, technologically advanced and targeted healthcare, knowledge transfer and the future of biomedical engineering, product development and innovation, clinical research versus entrepreneurship, funding sources, and state-of-the-art research in these fields. The unique feature of this Congress over previous ones is its advanced programme, which will include group work with specialized experts, exhibitions by suppliers and manufacturers, and workshops and trainings aimed at enhancing the skills and competencies of conference attendees. Additionally, there will be an industrial corner connecting industry workers and scientists to fund and develop new products and services for the welfare of humans and animals.
The Congress will take place in Zagreb, the stunning capital of Croatia, just like it did last year. At the geographic, cultural, historical, and political intersection of Eastern and Western Europe, Zagreb combines the energy of the continents and the Mediterranean to create a singular whole. Because of its history and location, Zagreb can boast a broad gastronomic offer that combines a variety of cuisines. It also offers a vibrant and diverse artistic and cultural life. Ultimately, Zagreb is a secure city that extends a warm welcome and a helping hand to everyone who comes to visit and shows affection for its people.
We are really pleased of BioMedVetMech 2022 since it successfully met all of its goals and brought together a wide variety of professions. We are particularly proud of the BioMedVetMech Proceedings "Advances in Biomedical and Veterinary Engineering" published by Springer.
The entire organising board is pleased to once again extend a warm welcome to you for the 2nd European Congress on Biomedical and Veterinary Engineering, or BIOMEDVETMECH. We firmly believe that this conference will serve as a foundation for the exchange of knowledge, the acquisition of new skills and competencies, the meeting of international experts, and the making of new friends and colleagues.
Sincerely yours,
