Interface biology of implants.
To successfully apply implant materials for regenerative processes in the body, understanding the mechanisms at the interface between cells or tissues and the artificial material is of critical importance. This topic is becoming increasing relevant for clinical applications. For the fourth time, around 200 scientists met in Rostock, Germany for the international symposium "Interface Biology of Implants". The aim of the symposium is to promote interdisciplinary dialogue between scientists from different disciplines. The symposium also emphasizes the need of this applied scientific field for permanent input from basic sciences.
