The Elsevier International Bionic Engineering Conference 2011 aims to bridge the gap between academic research and industrial development in a field that is rapidly growing and gaining recognition across many disciplines. Intended as a common ground for the exchange of ideas, the Organizers call upon key researchers in industry and academia from around the globe to engage each other with presentation and in conversation that inspires bionic solutions to some of the biggest engineering problems facing industry today. The meeting extends to North America from three successful international meetings organized by the Key Laboratory for Terrain-Machine Bionic Engineering at Jilin University in Changchun, China. The conference is also associated with the Journal of Bionic Engineering published by Elsevier and is the official title of the International Society of Bionic Engineering.
This is the 1st Conference in a new and exciting series of conferences associated with Journal of Bionic Engineering.
These conferences provide a new level of direct interaction between the leaders in the scientific field and the attending delegates. Emphasis will be placed on latest unpublished results, extended discussion periods and direct interactions with leaders in the field.
