The BioHealth (quantitative biology research themes) and MIPS research departments of MUSE, as well as the LabEx NUMEV, have the pleasure to invite you to the third half-day of “BioPhysics Initiatives” on Friday, October 8th 2021 with presentations about biomechanics, which can also be declined as mechano-biology. A “crawling ideas” session is also proposed, where you will have the opportunity to rapidly introduce a topic linked with “Mechanobiology” with one or two slides.
Friday, October 8th 2021 – 1:45pm to 5pm, on Zoom
