A Word from the Organisers
|
|
We have the pleasure to invite you to the third International Conference on Bioelectromagnetism
(3rd ICBEM) and to the first Slovenian-Croatian Meeting on Biomedical Engineering (1st Slo-CroMBE)
to be held in a beautiful alpine resort of Bled, Slovenia, from 8-12 October 2000. We wish to bring
together an international multidisciplinary group of researchers, engineers, medical doctors, and
manufacturers engaged in different aspects of fundamental and applied research of interaction of
electromagnetic fields and the living. We will make every effort to make your staying and participating
at the conference fruitful and pleasant. We wish you to benefit from your staying in Bled from
scientific, social, and cultural point of view.
Sincerely,
|

Many biological processes within the living organism, from cellular up to the organism level, are based
on bioelectric and biomagnetic phenomena. These phenomena are still not completely understood and are
subject of many scientific studies. The purpose of this conference is to reflect the present state of
this research.

Preliminary Scientific Program
|
|
The Scientific Program of 3rd ICBEM and 1st Slo-CroMBE will depend very much on the papers you are going
to submit for presentation. The preliminary topics to be covered by the Conference include but are not
restricted to:
- fundamental mechanisms
- theory and models
- measurement and dosimetry
- technology and devices
- health risk effects
- functional electrical stimulation (FES)
- electroporation
- soft tissue and bone healing
- clinical engineering
- new techniques in MRI
|
|
All contributions submitted for presentation at 3rd ICBEM and 1st Slo-CroMBE will be reviewed by
the international Scientific Committee. All papers (extended abstracts) accepted for presentation
will be published in the Proceedings of 3rd ICBEM which will be available at the Conference. The
Proceedings will be also published in a Supplement Issue of the International Journal of
Bioelectromagnetism (IJBEM), a peer-reviewed journal published by the International Society for
Bioelectromagnetism (ISBEM). This is a scientific journal dedicated to publication of papers
related to bioelectro-magnetism. It is an online electronic journal accessible free of charge at
the http://www.tut.fi/ijbem/.
Special Issue of IJBEM
A selection of the best and the most relevant presentations at 3rd ICBEM and 1st SloCroMBE will
be also published in a Special Issue of the IJBEM. Authors of these presentations will be asked
after the Conference to prepare full-length papers of their work.
