On June 9, the defense of graduation projects of students who mastered the educational module “Introduction to Biomechanics and Biomedical Materials Science” took place under the leadership of the head of the laboratory of mechanics of biocompatible materials of DSTU, Honored Professor of the University of Sydney Michael Vincent Swain.

Graduates have clearly shown how knowledge in the field of robotics, cybersecurity of information systems, instrumentation and applied mechanics can be effectively integrated into medicine today to solve urgent medical problems. The setting of tasks was carried out by practicing doctors – employees of medical institutions of Rostov-on-Don and professors of Rostov State Medical University.

We invite everyone interested in issues of modern biomechanics and materials science to join the procedure for protecting projects by 4-year students of DSTU on June the 9th from 9 AM to 3 PM (UTC+3). You will see how the knowledge in the field of robotics, cybersecurity of information systems, instrument engineering and applied mechanics can be effectively integrated into the medicine today to solve acute and urgent problems that operating surgeons and doctors are facing.

The academic initiator and coordinator of the project is the Honored Professor of the University of Sydney, the Head of the Laboratory of Mechanics of Biocompatible Materials at DSTU, who leads the research team on the Megagrant of the Government of the Russian Federation.

You will be able to ask your questions to both the students presenting their projects and solutions, and to invited expert practitioners:

• Golubev Georgy Shotavich, head of the orthopedic department of MLPUZ GB №1 named. ON THE. Semashko “, the head. Department of Traumatology and Orthopedics, Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Rostov State Medical University;
  
• Epikhin Alexander Nikolaevich, Head of the Department of Ophthalmology, Rostov State Medical University;
  
• Laktionov Egor Vitalievich, dentist, therapist, head of the dental department No. 2  “Dental Clinic of Rostov-on-Don”;
  
• Ryabichko Artyom Gennadievich, dentist-surgeon, head of the orthopedic department No. 2  “Dental Clinic of Rostov-on-Don.”

On September 10, Professor of the Department of Structural Design of the University of Sao Paulo (Brazil) Adair Roberto Aguiar held an open lecture for the students of DSTU. The lecture will be held within the framework of the Days of Navigation and the VII International Scientific and Practical Conference “Innovative Technologies in Science and Education”.
