• Orthopaedics and Joint mechanics
• Soft Tissue Biomechanics

• Forensic Biomechanics
• Cardiovascular and Biofluid Mechanics
• Methods in Biomechanics

Abstract Submission Deadline

Abstracts must be submitted by February 7, 2005.  Notification of our accept/reject decision will be on April 15th.

Abstract Preparation

Abstracts must be prepared as a PDF file for electronic submission.

1.  Download the Word file (DOC) with formatting instructions.  Please use this file as a template to prepare your abstract.
2. Convert your abstract to a PDF file.  If you have Adobe Acrobat (full version, not just the reader), you can print directly from Word to a PDF file.  If you do not have Adobe Acrobat, there are some alternatives:
   • Adobe web-based conversion service (paid subscription required, free trial available)

   • Free web-based conversion services

   • Install a PostScript printer driver, print to a .ps file, and use GhostScript to convert to PDF.
3. Proofread the PDF file to ensure that contents and format are correct.  Most likely you have a PDF viewer on your system.  If not, Acrobat Reader can be downloaded at no cost.

If you wish to avoid using the Microsoft Word template, we also have a PDF file with formatting instructions.

Abstract Submission

Abstract submission is now closed.  Keynote speakers who have not yet submitted an abstract are kindly requested to e-mail their PDF file to Ton van den Bogert (bogerta@ccf.org).
