Materials & Processes for Medical Devices 2009

MPMD 2009: Materials Innovations for Medical Devices

MPMD is the only medical devices conference and exposition that brings together materials scientists and engineers, metallurgists, product designers, researchers, and clinicians. This event brings together the world’s foremost experts from academia, industry, and national laboratories involved in cardiac, vascular, neurological and GI implants, orthopaedic implants, dental devices and surgical instrumentation/devices. Materials covered include biomedical alloys (stainless steels, Ti alloys, Co-Cr alloys, Ni-Ti alloys, noble and refractory metals), biopolymers, bioceramics, surface coatings, and nanomaterials.

Focus areas include: degradation, wear fracture, corrosion, processing, biomimetics, biocompatibility, bioelectric phenomena and electrode behavior, surface engineering, andcell-material interactions.

The ASM International Materials and Processes for Medical Devices conference and exposition occur on a 24 month interval. The conference provides the latest technical insights, exceptional networking, and actionable takeaways for anyone who works with medical devices and innovation.
