Welcome to the 10th Frontiers in Medical Devices (BIOMED) Conference. The BIOMED Conference is intended to provide a cutting-edge forum
for enhancing the development of next generation of biomedical devices by sharing the recent innovations in analytical, computational, and
experimental techniques within the bioengineering and design community.
We have an exciting conference program for the attendees, with technical presentations organized into 4 sessions. The topics of BIOMED 2017
are focused on wearable and implantable Technologies, as well as biorobotics and haptics.
I would like to thank all authors, session chairs, symposium chairs and reviewers who have contributed their efforts to the overall success of
BIOMED conference. Special thanks to IDETC conference chairs Dumitru Caruntu and Bogdan Eprueanu, technical program chair Stefano Lenci
