*Dear OpenSim Users, We have several announcements and upcoming events to share with you. * * * *Workshops* The OpenSim team is planning several upcoming workshops. Just added is a hands-on workshop and demo with the NMS Physiome team at the International Society of Biomechanics Congress in Brussels. We have also posted application materials for the August Advanced User and Developer Workshop on the Stanford campus. See below for more information. *July 6, 2011, 3:45 to 5:45 pm* NMS Physiome Workshop International Society of Biomechanics Conference, Brussels, Belgium More information is available at the following site: http://www.stanford.edu/group/opensim/support/event_details.html?id=21&titl… *August 15-17, 2011* OpenSim Advanced User and Developer Workshop Stanford University An application form and more information is available at the following site: http://www.stanford.edu/group/opensim/support/event_details.html?id=15&titl… *October 15, 2011, 8:30 to 10:30 am* Simulation of Human Movement and Gait Pathology - An Introduction to OpenSim for the Clinician Two Hour Instructional Course at the American Academy for Cerebral Palsy and Developmental Medicine Annual Meeting General meeting information can be found here: http://www.aacpdm.org/meetings/2011/ *NCSRR Pilot Projects* We recently announced a call for proposals to the NCSRR Pilot Project Program. *The program awards seed grants to innovative and meritorious projects that will accelerate the use of simulation in rehabilitation research. Our intent is to engage rehabilitation research experts to demonstrate the use of biomechanical simulations in novel areas and to help enhance the OpenSim software for rehabilitation science. *Pilot project awardees may request funding (up to $25,000) for their research or access to additional NCSRR resources (e.g., software engineering support). More information about the program and a FAQ section is available on our website: http://www.stanford.edu/group/opensim/support/pilot.html *Webinars* We encourage you to participate in our next webinar: *July 28, 2011 at 9:00 am PST* Using OpenSim to Explore the Mechanics of Pathological Gait Patterns, Katherine Steele http://www.stanford.edu/group/opensim/support/event_details.html?id=19&titl… Our website has links to recordings of past webinars and a summary of questions and answers from earlier broadcasts. We will also post updates to the webinar series schedule on this page: http://www.stanford.edu/group/opensim/support/webinars.html <http://www.stanford.edu/group/opensim/support/webinars.html> Best Wishes, Jennifer Hicks -- --------------------------------- Jennifer L.
