The summer school takes place at at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden
The course introduces and applies state-of-the-art tools in the continuum mechanical analysis of hard and soft biological tissues. Regardless of numerous scientific meetings report the latest research results, they fail to communicate the basics of tissue biomechanics. This course therefore provides attendees with a broad foundation towards the mechanical description of biological tissues, allowing to address individual scientific endeavors more effectively.
The course is designed for PhD students and postdoctoral researchers with a good background in bioengineering and solid mechanics. It integrates physical principles, numerical approaches, and experimental concepts towards the characterization of biological tissues. The program’s holistic approach is unique in the analysis of biological tissues.
24 hours of lectures, 7 hours of "ask the esperts" session, 8 hours of hands-on, and many social activities.
