Objectives
| 1. |
To provide
opportunities to medical doctors, scientists, technologists, postgraduate
students, and related personnel to update their knowledge and technical
skills via lectures and hands-on workshop with reference to |
| |
 |
Bone
molecular biology, histomorphometry, histopathology, and biomechanics;
|
|
Animal
models for prevention and treatment of osteoporosis; |
|
Evaluation
of antiosteoporosis drugs and treatments of osteoporotic fractures;
|
|
Interface
studies between bone and biomaterials; |
|
Noninvasive
bone densitometries and they evaluation strategy in preclinical
and clinical research. |
|
 |
| 2. |
To
provide opportunities for attendees to share their technical difficulties
occurred during research with experts in related areas at the "users'
meeting session" of the hands-on workshop and thereafter by establishing
long-term personal contact. |
|
| 3. |
To
provide a forum for exploring future joint development in bone and
related research, including continuous education and training, potential
local, regional and international collaborations via joint research
projects, sharing research funding sources, scientific information
exchanges. |
Target
Participants
Basic and clinical scientists, orthopaedic surgeons, physicians, technologists,
postgraduate students, and related personnel working in the bone and related
biomaterial sciences.
Number
of participants
No limit for
lectures but limited for 60 participates for the following hands-on workshops
at first-register-first-serve basis. Enrollment confirmation will be mailed
or faxed to you within 4 weeks time. For those need visa to Hong Kong,
