Successful participation in the International Symposium on Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering

The 18th International Symposium on Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering (CMBBE 2023) took place last week in Paris at the Arts et Métiers ParisTech. Two of our contributions to the field were accepted for presentation. Our posters, titled "The aging spinal lumbar lordosis - effects on the intervertebral discs" and "Deep Learning as a tool for automatically creating patient-specific spine models," were well-received by attendees and the conference committee. In the presented research, we focused on examining the effects of aging spinal structures on the lower spine. Another contribution showed how deep learning methods can be applied to build biomechanical models of the spine.

Engaging discussions took part in the poster sessions, and new insights were gained that will be applied to future projects. In addition, possible new opportunities for collaboration and scientific exchange emerged during the presentations. Of course, the most intensive networking was done during the coffee breaks while tasting delicious croissants and macaroons.
