Targeting the biomaterials and
medical device communities

Biomaterials Forum, the official quarterly news magazine of the Society For Biomaterials, is distributed to about 1,500 professionals in the biomaterials and medical device communities. These biomaterials professionals include physical scientists, engineers, dentists, biological scientists, surgeons and veterinary practitioners in industry, government, clinical specialties and academic settings. Biomaterials scientists study the properties of biological cells, their components and complexes such as tissues and organs in their interactions with synthetic substances and implanted prosthetic devices. Biomaterials engineers develop and characterize the materials used to measure, restore and improve physiologic function and enhance survival and quality of life.

The Society For Biomaterials is a professional society that promotes advances in biomedical materials, research and development by encouragement of cooperative research, education programs, clinical applications and professional standards in the biomaterials field.

Biomaterials Forum keeps society members abreast of news and issues affecting the biomaterials industry through feature articles, government and industry news updates, targeted special interest group updates and other biomaterials community content. Among the topics covered in the magazine are orthopaedic biomaterials, nanotechnology, tissue engineering, bioimaging, drug delivery and medical device development.

Biomaterials Forum advertisers include companies that work in device development and manufacturing, coatings, medical device evaluation, packaging products and services, surface modification and treatment, testing services and equipment and regulatory affairs.

Let Biomaterials Forum be your gateway to the biomaterials community!
