About the Conference
This conference series started in 2011 with the founding of the Society in Shanghai, China, and has occurred every three years, visiting Okayama (2014) and Singapore (2017). ISMB 2022 was the first time this conference was held in Australia.
The conference brought together 200+ delegates from both Australian and international communities (students, scientists, clinicians, engineers and stakeholders from academia, industry and other organisations) working in the broader field of mechanobiology.
