Let’s make 2022 Tokyo the place to reunion the 3DAHM Community! (2021/03）

Dear Colleagues,

It has been already one year since the coronavirus caused the loss of our intellectual activities and free discussion.
During this period, various ideas have been made, and online conferences have also been organized.
Although these efforts seem to have had a certain impact, we still hear from many colleagues that they would like to meet and discuss in person.

In 2022, I would like to have a face-to-face discussion with you in Tokyo.
Although the situation is still not optimistic, the executive committee and the local committee will make firm preparations to hold the conference on-site.
We will keep you updated on the progress of the preparations on our website. Therefore, we hope that you will positively consider meeting us again in Tokyo in the summer of 2022.

We are looking forward to seeing you soon.

Sincerely yours,

Yoshi Kobayashi
President of 3DAHM; Technical Group of the International Society of Biomechanics
