ISTA 2026: The 36th International Congress
Munich, Germany, September 15th – September 18th, 2026
“Bridging Innovation and Orthopaedic Excellence”
41. GOTS-Kongress (11-13.06.2026)
41st GOTS Congress – We cordially invite you to attend!
Dear friends of sports orthopedics, sports traumatology, and sports medicine,
dear GOTS members, guests, and exhibitors,
under the motto “MOVE,” GOTS will host its 41st annual congress with the participation of the World Health Organization (WHO) – we cordially invite you to this highlight in the “city of peace,” Osnabrück! The ultra-modern OsnabrückHalle will serve as our attractive congress location.
Following the successful premiere in Krems, GOTS will once again be organizing its annual congress independently in 2026, enabling us to offer you a varied scientific program once again, focusing on topics such as:
- Physical activity
- International sports systems
- Children’s and youth sports
- Surgical techniques
- Return to sport & functional diagnostics
- Artificial intelligence & wearables
- and much more
It is particularly important to us to promote lively exchange among all professional groups, including medical professionals, sports scientists, and physical therapists, as well as companies and industry representatives. We would like to encourage and invite you all to participate in our congress through symposia and workshops!
Be part of the action! We look forward to receiving numerous submissions so that we can work with you to create a diverse program!

10th WCB Vancouver (11-15.07.2026)
10th World Congress of Biomechanics
Vancouver, CA (July 11-15, 2026)
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Get ready and save the date!
The 10th World Congress of Biomechanics is coming to vibrant Vancouver from July 11-15, 2026—and we can’t wait to welcome you. We are thrilled to bring you an unforgettable event that celebrates all that’s new, bold, and boundary-pushing in biomechanics. The 10th World Congress of Biomechanics will feature a rich scientific and social program bringing together our global research community. We are honored to announce that the 10th World Congress will serve as the 2026 meeting of our 3 principal partners: the American Society of Biomechanics (ASB), the Canadian Society of Biomechanics/Société Canadienne de Biomécanique (CSB/SCB), and the European Society of Biomechanics (ESB).
In addition to the high quality and diverse spectrum of scientific tracks you have come to expect from the World Congress, we are striving to amplify contributions of researchers that are embracing emerging areas that we will announce more on as the planning progresses, but will undoubtedly include wearable sensors, artificial intelligence, regenerative medicine, novel devices, and much more. This Congress will be an immersive, hands-on experience in one of the most dynamic cities in the world. Expect workshops that spark creativity, discussions that challenge the status quo, and networking opportunities against the stunning backdrop of Vancouver’s mountains and ocean.
Join us in continuing the tradition of excellence of more than two decades of World Congresses now past, and forging the next directions in your field. This is more than a Congress; it’s a chance to inspire, be inspired, and chart new directions. Vancouver is calling, and you won’t want to miss this incredible opportunity!

Workshop: Biomarkers arising from nonlinear analysis of movement variability 03-06.2023 Zurich
Registration now open: Workshop on “Biomarkers arising from nonlinear analysis of movement variability”
July 3-6, 2023, ETH Zurich, Switzerland
The Laboratory for Movement Biomechanics (LMB – ETH Zurich) together with the Center for Research in Human Movement Variability (MOVCENTR – UNO Omaha) is organizing a 4-day workshop converging experts in the field for deeper discussions and future international level efforts and collaboration for development and validation of biomarkers arising from nonlinear analysis of movement variability. During the workshop, participants will learn about the underlying mathematics and real-world applications of latest techniques and tools for assessment of various nonlinear characteristics: Complexity, Divergence, Regularity and Recurrences in human movement research. The programme also includes keynotes from world leading experts, think-tank sessions to share opportunities and challenges for fundamental investigations in nonlinear analysis of movement variability and Consult with Experts sessions to meet one-to-one with experts to discuss and plan your research journey with non-linear analysis tools.
Participants with varied backgrounds (research scientists, clinicians, educators, and students) are welcome since we include a strong practical component with class discussions and hands-on practice to facilitate understanding of the methods. More info and registration here:
