Welcome Message
On behalf of the organising committee, it is my pleasure to invite
you and your colleagues to attend
the WACBE World Congress on Bioengineering 2009, which
will be held in Hong Kong SAR, 26th to 29th July 2009.
The World Association for Chinese Biomedical Engineers (WACBE)
organises biannual World Congresses. The first congress was held
at Taipei in December 2002; the second was held at Beijing in
September 2004; and the third was held at Bangkok in July 2007.
All the three congresses brought together many biomedical
engineers from over the world to share their experiences and to
exchange views on the future development of biomedical
engineering. The 4th WACBE World Congress on Bioengineering 2009
in Hong Kong will continue to offer such a networking forum for
bioengineers to keep abreast of the latest development of the
field.
The Congress will cover all related areas in bioengineering and
special symposiums will be arranged in the hot themes. Apart from
the scientific programmes including invited plenary and keynote
speeches, special symposia, free paper presentations, and product
exhibition, student activities and social programmes are also
available. We will strongly encourage students and young academic
staff to join this Congress. Special activities for students and
young researchers to meet those internationally renowned
scientists will be organised. Awards for the best papers for
innovation will be set up to young investigators. The WACBE World
Congress on Bioengineering 2009 will be a memorable event for
colleagues and friends from all over the world to establish
friendship, to promote academic exchanges at an international
level and to stimulate the interests of biomedical engineers. I
look forward to welcoming you to Hong Kong.
Professor Arthur Mak
Chairman of Organizing Committee
