This is a post of a meeting announcement and a call for papers for
BIOMED 93, the Second International Conference on Computers in Biomedicine.

The meeting will be held in Bath, UK from 29 September -- 1 October, 1993.

I went to BIOMED 91, the first such meeting, and would encourage you to
consider attending this second meeting.  The topics covered are broader than
my usual research interests in Biomechanics, but the focus on computational
methods allows for interesting exchanges of ideas, and I very much enjoyed
attending the first meeting, BIOMED 91.

I have abstracted the following information from the Call for Papers
brochure.  If you have questions, you can direct them to me or to the
Conference Secretariat at the address listed at the bottom of this posting.
