Reg. Conference" (SPRBM) in Washington this October. Folks staying current in E-M effects and clinical applications, as well as the effects of mechanical strain, and ultrasound on cells and tissues, should be interested. ********************************* The 15th Annual SPRBM Meeting (Society for Physical Regulation in Biology and Medicine) Oct. 11-14 1995 Hyatt Regency, Crystal City, Arlington, VA.,USA. 1995 PROGRAM OUTLINE WEDNESDAY EVENING, Oct. 11: 19:00-21:00 Welcome Reception and Cocktails THURSDAY, Oct. 12 8:15-10.15 ***Symposium on Electromagnetic Field Effects on Wound Healing I 10:30-12:30 ***Symposium on Electromagnetic Field Effects on Wound Healing II 13:30-14:45pm ***Papers: Electromagnetic Field Effects on Wound Healing III 15:00-16:30 ***Papers: Electromagnetic Field Effects on Bone Remodeling/Repair 16:45-17:30 ***Papers: Electrochemically Stimulated Responses FRIDAY, Oct. 13 8:00-10:00 ***Symposium on Thermal Regulation of Biological Processes I 10:15-11:45 ***Symposium on Thermal Regulation of Biological Processes II 13:00-14:45 ***Papers: Cell Injury by Electric Force 15:00-16:45 ***Papers: Transductive Coupling: Extracellular Matrix Effects SATURDAY, Oct. 14 8:00-10:00 ***Symposium on Ultrasound I 10:15-11:45 ***Symposium on Ultrasound II 13:00-14:00 ***Papers: Cellular Responses to Physical Stimulation 14:15-15:30 ***Papers: Mechanical Stimulation of Bone 15:30-16:30 ***SPECIAL LECTURE: Elliot Postow, Ph.D., (NIH, Div.

Emerging clinical applications and the newest research on basic cellular mechanisms are strongly emphasized at these conferences. SPRBM has a SINGLE SESSION meeting format, involving clinicians, engineers, physicists and biologists, and has extremely lively discussions in which all attendees are encouraged to be involved. Lunch together as well as all functions are included in the modest 3-day registration fee. ********************************** The full program booklet, with titles, speakers, registration information, and accomodations at special rates is available by contacting: SPRBM@FASEB.ORG or by mail SPRBM 9650 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, MD 20814-3998 Fax: 301-530-7049 Voice: 301-571-0680 ********************************** Joe Spadaro, Ph.D. S.U.N.Y.
