Scope of the Conference

The International Youth Conference of Bionic Science and Engineering Conference 2021 (IYCBSE2021) aims to bring together the world’s young researchers and leading scientists to discuss the cutting-edge developments in the vigorous field of bionics. This conference will cover the basic science underpinning bionic systems as well as the applied research in a myriad of exciting areas, and stimulate discussions and exchange of ideas to better translate nature’s inspiration to address grand challenges facing us. 

This conference will be hosted by the Youth Commission of the International Society of Bionic Engineering (ISBE), jointly organized by City University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and Jilin University.
