​Medical Bionics Conference

The Bionics Institute is committed to bringing together the people and the know-how to ensure progress in creating bionic solutions to major health issues. The Medical Bionics Conference is an initiative of the Institute and is designed to promote the field of medical bionics and provide a forum for information exchange, networking and the mentoring of students. The ultimate objective is to contribute to the development of new, safe and effective devices for clinical application.

In November 2008, we hosted our first international Medical Bionics Conference: “Medical Bionics – a new paradigm in human health”. In November 2011, our conference, with the theme “Neural interfaces for damaged nerves”, attracted over 170 international and local scientists, engineers, clinicians and industry representatives. On the basis of the positive feedback we received, this conference will now be held every two years.

The third international conference on Medical Bionics, with the theme "Engineering solutions for neural disorders", will be held from the November 17 - 20, 2013, at the Silverwater Resort, Phillip Island, Victoria.
