Have some muscle modeling work you’d like to share? Submit an abstract to #WCB2022 for the session Dynamic Muscle Modeling (in MSK 3: Modeling and Simulation) that I’m moderating with Tobias Siebert and James Wakeling! Deadline is Nov 15th at 23:59 GMT+8 wcb2022.com
WCB 2022@2022Wcb19 Oct 2021
We hope this hybrid format would allow biomechanists around the world to participate with minimal interference from the effects of the pandemic. Whether you plan to join us online or onsite, we look forward to receiving your abstracts by Nov. 15! More info on WCB 2022 website!

Replying to @SICB_
@SICB_ is opening late-breaking abstract submission for the SICB 2021 Virtual Annual Meeting. To those of you who might have missed the original deadline or are new to the society, this new submission window provides a second opportunity to take part in this meeting.

Some great open source code for #MRI muscle segmentation here! @bartbolsterlee - you and your willingness to share this code (and others) open source is truly amazing. #biomechanics #sashimisegmentation
Bart Bolsterlee@bartbolsterlee21 Apr 2020
Are you tired of manually segmenting muscles from #MRI scans and can't wait for fully automated methods to become available? SASHIMI Segmentation might just be what you're after! Git: github.com/bartbols/SASHIMI #sashimisegmentation [1/n]
