@DavidVorp Thanks for the kind words David and for developing with Damien such a fantastic scientific programme for @WCB2018 . Safe travels home. #WCB2018

A special thanks to our #WCB2018 partners @KeynotePCO. The entire team, led by the wonderful Rachel O’Hare, have been a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend them for anyone organizing meetings in Ireland.

Thanks too to the #WCB2018 partner societies including @ASMEdotorg BED, TERMIS, @ANZSB, DGFB, @ISBiomechanics @ORSsociety, APAB, JSME @VPH_Institute Societe de Biomecanique & especially @SB3Corg & @ESBiomech who folded their annual meetings into WCB2018.

Sponsorship for #WCB2018 from @RCSI_Irl @scienceirel @virginia_tech @Kistler_Group @KildareVillage and @Failte_Ireland was greatly appreciated & key to our success

Thanks also to our exhibitors who played a key role in #WCB2018. There were some amazing displays in the Forum.

David Thanks for your kind words. It’s been an honour & privilege to work with you & Damien. Your commitment was unwavering. Ultimately delegates attend conferences to see science & the program that you put together, together with track & session chairs, was truly outstanding. twitter.com/davidvorp/stat…

Many were from @dannykelly1978 & my labs but many others were not. Thanks also to the other @TissueEngDublin & @TCDBioengineer PIs who gave their research staff a ‘week off’!

Congratulations again to Danny Kelly @dannykelly1978, Fergal O'Brien @fjobrien, and the entire team at @TissueEngDublin, @TCDBioengineer, and @RCSI_Irl who made @WCB2018 such a success. They brought a tremendous level of international attention to the field of biomechanics!

We had lots of wonderful music at #WCB2018 from #BEDrock to #U2. This is my favourite performance though. The @TissueEngDublin Bog Rattlers with Deep-lying Scaffolds- led by @Laura_B_Gall!

Thanks to all our wonderful @TissueEngDublin & @TCDBioengineer volunteers for their tremendous efforts over the past week. Very long days of hard work but they never stopped smiling! You guys were a huge contributor to the success of #WCB2018 @RCSI_Irl

Biomimetic implants for articulate cartilage repair - super interesting session began with talks by Profs @dannykelly1978 and @Farsh_G

Congratulations @dannykelly1978 @fjobrien on a remarkably educational and fun #WCB2018 @WCB2018
