*OpenSim Software to Help Design Smart Suits for Soldiers* The OpenSim project has a new contract with DARPA, through their Warrior Web Program <http://www.darpa.mil/Our_Work/DSO/Programs/Warrior_Web.aspx>. The funds will enable us to add injury risk meters, metabolic predictions, and other tools for performing simulation-based design with OpenSim, all of which will be made available to the biomechanics community. Read more about the project here<http://opensim.stanford.edu/support/darpa_warrior_web.html> . *Postdoctoral Fellowship in the NMBL Lab at Stanford* The OpenSim project at Stanford University, led by Scott Delp and the Neuromuscular Biomechanics Lab, is now accepting applications for a Postdoctoral Fellow. Please see the full posting<http://biomch-l.isbweb.org/threads/24173-Postdoctoral-Fellowship-Neuromuscular-Biomechanics-Lab-at-Stanford> for more information and forward to anyone who may be interested and qualified. *OpenSim Webinar Series* We've had several webinars this summer and fall on topics ranging from stroke-rehabilitation to muscle models. You can learn more and watch recordings at the OpenSim webinar page<http://opensim.stanford.edu/support/webinars.html>. Our next webinar will feature the NMS Builder software for creating OpenSim models from imaging data. *Title*: NMSBuilder Software for Creating Patient-Specific OpenSim Models *Speaker*: Giordano Valente, Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli *Time*: Tuesday, December 4, 2012 at 9:30 a.m. Pacific Time Read more and register here<http://www.stanford.edu/group/opensim/support/event_details.html?id=55> *Second Call for Abstracts for CMBBE Symposium* We encourage you to participate in the International Symposium on Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering (CMBBE) in Salt Lake City, Utah from April 3-6, 2013. The abstract deadline is December 14. The CMBBE Symposium will feature an OpenSim workshop, a special session on Dynamic Musculoskeletal Simulations, and a plenary talk by Scott Delp, director of the OpenSim project.
