SUMMARY OF THE EVENT
The annual conference of the International Society for Biofabrication “Biofabrication 2016”, which will take place in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, USA October 29 - 31, 2016 aims to provide an inspiring three-day program that includes the state-of-the-art in the field of biofabrication as well as “out of the box” insights from related fields. The meeting will be of a multidisciplinary nature and gather research leaders, scholars, clinicians and company representatives from around the world to exchange ideas on the rapidly developing topic of biofabrication.
Biofabrication will extend its impact on medicine and biology and accelerate its evolution towards novel concept and practices through the convergence of biofabrication technologies. Topics to be covered at the conference range from novel biofabrication methods, technologies, and matrix materials to the applications of biofabricated constructs.
The International Conference on Biofabrication 2016 will be held at the Embassy Suites
Winston-Salem and the Winston-Salem Marriott located at the center of the Twin City
Quarter. This prime location enables visitors to experience both the old and new with the avant-garde arts district shops, galleries, restaurants, the Wake Forest Innovation Quarter,
Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine and the historic district of Old Salem all within walking distance. Further, it is only a 25 minute drive from the Piedmont Triad
International Airport with additional options from the Charlotte Douglas International
Airport, about a 75 minute drive. A range of additional hotel accommodation options are available, suitable for all budgets, within walking distance.
The organizators expect to bring together 250 - 300 people from all over the globe active in the field of biofabrication.
The session themes and topics to be addressed during Biofabrication 2016 include:
Titles are tentative and subject to change.
