About the Symposium
A Celebration of
Science and Scholarship
The Symposium on Mechanics, Materials, and Mechanobiology (M3) is a premier international gathering bringing together leading researchers in mechanics, advanced materials, and mechanobiology. This special symposium celebrates the remarkable contributions and 70th birthdays of two distinguished professors:
Prof. Eduard Arzt, renowned for his pioneering work on bio-inspired adhesion and the mechanics of thin films.
Prof. K. Jimmy Hsia, celebrated for his groundbreaking research in mechanics of soft materials and mechanobiology.
Over two days, participants will engage with cutting-edge research through keynote lectures, invited talks, and collaborative discussions, driving interdisciplinary advances at the interface of mechanics, materials, and biology.
