Last week marked a once in a life time gathering of biomaterials enthusiasts at the prestigious SCSB2024 event in Helsingør, Denmark. The event was organized by #TeamBioEngine in the  charmering Marienlyst hotel, a mere 100 meters from the lovely shores of Øresund, in which over 130 passionate biomaterial scientists gathered for a truly unique biomaterial experience. The event boasted an impressive lineup, featuring 10 captivating keynotes and 10 esteemed invited speakers. Attendees engaged in enriching conversations, enlightening presentations, and valuable networking opportunities. Amidst the many exciting sessions, we indulged in thrilling social activities that included rejuvenating spa sessions, thrilling clay shooting excursions, a revisit to the iconic Hamlet, and serene yoga sessions. The event culminated as a memorable affair, leaving a lasting impact on all participants. As we look ahead, the anticipation for Finland 2025 grows as we strive to elevate and surpass the exceptional standards set by this year's event. Last but not leat a big applause to this years organizing committee and our amazing keynote speakers.

I am super excited to announce this upcoming Scandinavian Society for Biomaterials (ScSB) Society for Biomaterials (ScSB) lecture by Tina Vermonden on the fascinating world of injectable hydrogels for drug delivery applications. In recent years, there has been a surge of interest in developing injectable hydrogels that offer controlled release of therapeutic agents at specific locations in the body. These intelligent materials hold tremendous potential for revolutionizing the field of medicine. During Tina’s lecture, we will delve into the intricacies of designing injectable thermosensitive hydrogels. These hydrogels are engineered to transition from a solution to a gel in response to stimuli such as changes in temperature or pH, making them perfect candidates for the delivery of proteins and low molecular weight therapeutics. The focus will be on their local application for the treatment of various ocular diseases. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to expand your knowledge and gain insights into this exciting field!
