*OpenSim Workshop at ISB TGCS Symposium in Australia* *Workshop to be held on July 20, 2017* *Symposium Abstracts due March 31, 2017 (recently extended) * In this workshop, the OpenSim team will use a hands-on example to introduce the new features of OpenSim 4.0 that make scripting in MATLAB more powerful and user-friendly. The workshop will take place at the International Society of Biomechanics Technical Group on Simulation Symposium. It will last three hours and is designed for those who are familiar with both OpenSim and MATLAB. We encourage you to submit an abstract <http://isbweb.org/~tgcs/iscsb-2017/index.html> to the symposium and join us at TGCS on the Gold Coast of Australia. *Try out the re-designed OpenSim documentation site* We have overhauled the OpenSim documentation <http://simtk-confluence.stanford.edu:8080/display/OpenSim/OpenSim+Documentation> site to make it easier to navigate and find information. On this new site, resources have been organized in six categories. For example, in the Getting Started category you will find information about downloading and installing OpenSim; in the Documentation category, you will find the OpenSim User's Guide. On the left side of the site, we have added a Quick Links area where you can find links to popular OpenSim documentation pages. There is also an easily accessible search area. We welcome your feedback and ideas to continue improving the documentation. Please email us your input at any time. *John Hutchinson Becomes Newest OpenSim Fellow* Congratulations to John Hutchinson on becoming the newest OpenSim Fellow. Dr. Hutchinson is a Professor of Evolutionary Biomechanics at the Royal Veterinary College, University of London. He is an expert on modeling and simulation of musculoskeletal form and function in animals and an advocate for open data and reproducibility. This honor from the National Center for Simulation in Rehabilitation Research (NCSRR) recognizes a strong commitment to the OpenSim community and a deep expertise in biomechanical modeling and simulation.
