REMER Talks / Mechanical Signals Modulation of Living Cells

This week at REMER Talks, well known mechanobiology researcher Yannis F. Missirlis from University of Patras is going to be at REMER / Medipol Univesity. Professor Yannis F. Missirlis pioneered Educational and Research activities in Greece in the areas of Biomechanics, Biomaterials, Biomedical Engineering, Regenerative Medicine. In the early 1980s he represented his country in the European Union in the scientific areas of Biotechnology, and Biomedical Engineering. He has been a founding member and a Council member of the World Council of Biomechanics . At the same time he has served as member of the Council of the European Society of Biomechanics responsible for the Award Committee and the Education Committee. At the invitation of the Science & Technology Foundation of Japan, through an application of Professor Kozaburo Hayashi, Osaka University. Prof. Missirlis visited Japan in March‐April 1995. Intense and fruitful interactions between Prof. Missirlis and colleagues at prestigious Japanese Universities in Osaka, Tokyo, Yokohama, Kyoto, Sendai, Sapporo resulted in closer scientific (in the area of Biomedical Engineering) and cultural understanding on both sides. Prof. Missirlis has been invited and given seminars , or invited plenary talks, apart from European and North American Educational and Research Establishments, to scientific audiences in China, India, Iran, Syria, Egypt, Tunisia, Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, Venezuela, Siberia. Professor Missirlis will give an inspiring lecture titled “Mechanical Signals Modulation of Living Cells”. (13 May/10:00)
