Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) in Medicine and Biology II

Date : August 30-September 4, 2015
Place : Albufeira, Portugal

Deadline for abstracts for oral presentations: February 28, 2015
Deadline for abstracts for poster presentations: March 15, 2015

Conference Overview:
   After the immense success of the first conference chaired by Prof. David Elad (Tel Aviv University) in 2012, the 2nd
International Conference on CFD in Medicine & Biology will take place in Algarve, Portugal (29.08.-04.09.2015).
   With ongoing advances in both software and hardware development, including the huge increase in computers speed and memory,
computational fluid dynamics (CFD) are playing an increasing role in simulating complex transport phenomena in medicine and biology.
As a result, medical, bioengineering and pharmaceutical research, both academic and industrial have been utilizing the advantages of
CFD tools to plan sophisticated and specialized multi-physics models. The benefits of these numerical approaches have allowed to
gain deeper insight into many physical and biological phenomena and provided an excellent tool for predicting performance of devices
during the design phase. In many applications, the virtual capacity of CFD is replacing experimental work in the lab with the
ability to control and isolate governing parameters. In practice, the CFD tools compress the design and development cycle required
for prototyping and testing new devices.
   Recent developments in CFD capabilities and applications require fast and effective dissemination within the community. In this
2nd conference, we will cover all aspects of fundamental and advanced state-of-the-art developments and applications of CFD tools in
medicine, bio-engineering and biology, from cellular to organ level and from physiology to the design and development of medical
devices. The conference will gather investigators and scientists both from academia and industry and underline how both medicine and
biology are now progressively entering the in silico modeling area.

Post-Conference Publication:
A Special Issue following the conference will be published in the Journal of Biomechanics (tentatively January 2016)
