WELCOME TO ESB2023

It is our pleasure to invite you to 33^rd Annual Conference of the European Society for Biomaterials, which will take place from September 4 to September 8, 2023 in Davos, Switzerland.

As one of the prime biomaterials events of the year, ESB2023’s goal is to promote interactions and collaborations between researchers, educators, clinicians and industry representatives who are interested in biomaterials. Therefore, ESB2023 will be held as a face-to-face event without hybrid (online) component. ESB2023 will offer an exciting stage to share the latest solutions and discoveries to treat injured and aging tissues and organs. To do so, ESB2023 will offer a series of workshops and symposia on topics ranging from biomaterial basic science, applied biomaterials, clinical translation, additive manufacturing, biomaterials in education, healthcare accessibility, and regulatory affairs.

We welcome everyone interested in biomaterials to attend this event, which takes place in a beautiful Swiss Alpine setting. September in Davos is an excellent season for a wide range of outdoor activities including hiking and biking. The conference will take place in the Conference Center Davos, which is also the traditional setting for the well-known World Economic Forum. Davos is easily accessible by Switzerland’s excellent public transportation system.

We look forward to welcoming you to Davos ESB2023 to share exciting scientific discoveries and to meet new and old friends in the beautiful nature of Davos.

On behalf of the organizing committee,

Conference Chair: Matteo D’ Este
Conference co-Chairs: David Eglin, Marcy Zenobi-Wong
