The objective of this interdisciplinary conference is to bring together researchers in computer science, artificial intelligence, alife, control, robotics, neurosciences, ethology, evolutionary biology, and related fields so as to further our understanding of the behaviors and underlying mechanisms that allow natural and artificial animals to adapt and survive in uncertain environments. The conference will focus on experiments with well-defined models --- robot models, computer simulation models, mathematical models --- designed to help characterize and compare various organizational principles or architectures underlying adaptive behavior in real animals and in synthetic agents, the animats.

Bio-inspired Materials, DGM

Biological materials science is developing rapidly as a new field at the interface between materials science and biology. The reasons are quite diverse: On the one hand, the advances in regenerative medicine generate an ever growing need for new types of biomaterials with specific and well-defined interactions with the biological hostorganism. On the other hand, recent advances in materials haracterization and fabrication technologies have prompted scientists to ask how one can reformulate the structure of natural materials, taking advantage of the long-tried course of evolution and natural-selection, and utilizing this in bio-inspired designs for engineering applications.

2nd Int. Conf. on Electromechanically Active Polymer (EAP) transducers & artificial muscles

Potsdam, Germany, 28-29 May 2012

Over the last few years, the field of EAP transducers & artificial muscles has undergone an enormous expansion in basic research, industrial development and commercial exploitation. This expansion has stimulated in Europe the creation of the European Scientific Network for Artificial Muscles (ESNAM), established as a COST Action (www.esnam.eu). The network gathers the most active European research institutes, industrial developers and end users in the EAP field. In an effort to disseminate current advances in this emerging field of science and technology, gathering experts from all over the world, the network organises and supports the EuroEAP conference. The event is conceived as an exclusive forum for international experts and professionals seeking scientific quality, industrial impact and opportunities of cooperation.

6th Int. Conf. on Relating Design in Nature with Science and Engineering

The Design and Nature conference is to be reconvened in 2012 following the success of previous meetings, the first of which was held in Udine, Italy in 2002; followed by Rhodes, Greece (2004); the New Forest, UK (2006); the Algarve (2008); and the last one in Pisa (2010).

Throughout history, many leading thinkers have been inspired by the parallels between nature and human design, in mathematics, engineering and other areas. Today, the huge increase in biological knowledge, developments in design engineering systems, together with the growth in computer power and developments in simulation modelling, have all made possible more comprehensive studies of nature.

Living Machines 2012 - The First Int. Conf. on Biomimetics and Biohybrid Systems

The development of future real-world technologies will depend strongly on our understanding and harnessing of the principles underlying living systems and the flow of communication signals between living and artificial systems.

Biomimetics is the development of novel technologies through the distillation of principles from the study of biological systems. The investigation of biomimetic systems can serve two complementary goals. First, a suitably designed and configured biomimetic artefact can be used to test theories about the natural system of interest. Second, biomimetic technologies can provide useful, elegant and efficient solutions to unsolved challenges in science and engineering. Biohybrid systems are formed by combining at least one biological component - an existing living system - and at least one artificial, newly-engineered component. By passing information in one or both directions, such a system forms a new hybrid bio-artificial entity.

The development of either biomimetic or biohybrid systems requires a deep understanding of the operation of living systems, and the two fields are united under the theme of "living machines" - the idea that we can construct artefacts, such as robots, that not only mimic life but share the same fundamental principles; or build technologies that can be combined with a living body to restore or extend its functional capabilities.

Biomimetic and Biohybrid technologies, from nano- to macro-scale, are expected to produce major societal and economical impacts in quality of life and health, information and communication technologies, robotics, prosthetics, brain-machine interfacing and nanotechnology. Such systems should also lead to significant advances in the biological and brain sciences that will help us to better understand ourselves and the natural world. The following are some examples:
- Biomimetic robots and their component technologies (sensors, actuators, processors) that can intelligently interact with their environments
- Active biomimetic materials and structures that self-organize and self-repair
- Biomimetic computers—neuromimetic emulations of the physiological basis for intelligent behaviour
- Biohybrid brain-machine interfaces and neural implants
- Artificial organs and body-parts including sensory organ-chip hybrids and intelligent prostheses.

7th Plant BioMechanics International Conference

Plant biomechanics is an expanding interdisciplinary field, at the interfaces of biology, mechanics, physics and engineering. Despite its broad range of studies, it has long been felt that the researchers dealing with biomechanics have a lot to share. The first Plant Biomechanics International Conference was organized in Montpellier (France) in 1994. The 2nd PBMIC was held in 1997 in Reading (UK), the 3rd in 2000, in Badenweiler (Germany), the 4th in 2003 was in Lansing (MI USA), the 5th in 2006 was in Stockholm (Sweden), the 6th in 2009 was in Cayenne (FG) in South America Over the years, the Plant Biomechanics International Conference has become the central event of the Plant Biomechanics research community, as well as a unique place for interdisciplinary exchanges around the amazing features that Plants have evolved to sense, acclimate and adapt to the mechanical challenges they have been submitted to.

DGM Intelligent Materials Conference

Intelligent materials with integrated functionalities are required to make devices more energy efficient, autonomous, self-responding, switchable, biocompatible, and anti-bacterial. They are also integrated into novel sensor and actuator devices with significantly increased sensitivity. Such intelligent materials typically have a complex internal structure: they can be composites from different material classes like multiferroics. They might be nanostructured or hierarchically built-up, they could be bio-inspired and possess functional elements ranging from single molecules to the macro-scale. All those materials and their design and development has to be accompanied by high-resolution analytical tools that are able to characterize the materials on all scales and, moreover, to track and reveal their function-structure relations in situ.

The symposium will bring together experts in the field of intelligent materials in order to present and discuss recent developments and detect future trends.
