Biomimetics, Artificial Muscles & Nano-Bio 2007 Scientists Meet Doctors Torre Pacheco, Spain, Europe, Nov 6-7-8-9, 2007
To the memory of Prof. A. MacDiarmid, he had accepted our invitation as plenary lecturer of the congress and his nomination as Honorary Doctor of the Polytechnic Univ. of Cartagena.
The aim of the Meeting is to offer high-level lectures, extensive discussions and communications covering the state of the art on biomimetics and artificial muscles, providing an overview on their potential applications in the medical field, more particularly in the treatment of cardiac diseases. Major areas of interest are: Biomimetics, Artificial noses, Artificial tongues, Smart membranes, Mimetic skins (smart windows, glasses and mirrors, smart camouflage) Intelligent medical dosage (smart glands), Intelligent chemicals and fertilizers dosage Smart bio-sensor Artificial nervous interfaces: electron-neurotransmiter transduction Artificial Photosynthetic Systems Artificial Muscles (Polymeric or inorganic) Electrochemomechanical (conducting polymers, nanotubes) Electromechanical: Electrostrictive actuators, Piezoelectric actuators, Ferroelectric actuators, Electrostatic actuators, Electrokinetic actuators (electroosmotic) Thermomechanical optomechanical. Molecular Motors Artificial Muscles for the Failing Heart. (One session for medical applications) Nano-Bio Nano-biosensor, nano-bio-chip (miroarray devices, nanoelectrodes, nanotubes and nanotubules)
For the first time, scientists and physicians will have an open discussion on understanding the capabilities and limitations on artificial muscles behaviour, and understanding the capabilities and limitations of artificial muscles in the treatment of cardiac and vascular diseases, and identifying merging actuators for medical applications.
