Dear Biomaterials Scientists,
It is with great pleasure that we invite you to attend the 17th ScSB Annual Meeting (ScSB2024) at the Marienlyst Hotel in the charming city of Helsingør, Denmark. This year's focus is on Soft Materials with Dynamic Properties, and we believe that you will find this scientific gathering informative and engaging.
Helsingør is a town rich in history and culture, with notable attractions such as Hamlet's Castle by Shakespeare, a UNESCO world heritage site. The city is conveniently located just 45 minutes north of Copenhagen, making it easily accessible for attendees.
Our team has carefully curated an outstanding scientific program that explores the enormous potential of soft biomaterials and their applications in the medical and biomedical fields. We have invited distinguished researchers to share their expertise with the aim of exchanging ideas and fostering collaboration.
In addition to the scientific program, we have organized a series of social activities that will provide great opportunities for networking and interacting with our esteemed Scandinavian and international scientists. You will have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the essence of the 'Danish Hygge' concept, emphasizing comfort and coziness.
We are confident that ScSB2024 will be a memorable and rewarding experience. Thank you for accepting our invitation, and we look forward to welcoming you to Helsingør!
