Third Workshop on Soft Tissue Modelling
From Wednesday 7th to Friday 9th June, the third workshop on Soft Tissue Modelling will take place at the University of Glasgow.
Following successful Soft Tissue Modelling Workshops in Glasgow in 2012 and 2015, this third workshop will continue the research forum for modelling specialists and medical experts to discuss and exchange ideas on state-of-the-art developments and challenges in the field of soft tissue modelling, with particular applications to tissues in the cardiovascular system and tissues affected by cancer.
The workshop is organized and sponsored by SofTMech, an EPSRC-funded Centre for Mathematical Sciences in Healthcare.
Glasgow Dental School and the Glasgow Dental Alumnus Association have joined forces with a number of stakeholders including the Maclaurin Society (MacSoc) to create a World Record Breaking smile.
On the afternoon of Friday 9th June the Dental School hopes to produce the world’s largest smile in a piece of mass participation art at the SEC. MacSoc have taken on the teeth grinding challenge to design a solution to assembling 1000 people into a world class smile.
This fun-filled public engagement event, focusing on oral health promotion, will be split into two parts. First, they will create the carefully assembled 1000-person strong smile, followed by a concert to be played by the Glasgow Dental School Big Band plus guests under the baton of the band-leader, BDS 2015 alumnus, Callum Wemyss.
Sign up today to be a record breaker at www.cpdscotland.org/big-smile-big-band/.
Participation in the event costs just £5 for adults and it is free for under 16s.
Each participant will receive a copy of the official Guinness World Record certificate. You can also find them on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/bigsmilebigband/), Instagram (big_smile_big_band) and Twitter (@bigsmilebigband).
