In 2013, the ISB Council agreed to establish a Fellowship of the International Society of Biomechanics (FISB). The purpose of awarding Fellowships of the ISB is to recognize distinguished professional achievement in biomechanics. Fellows of the ISB are encouraged to provide continued professional service and leadership to the Society, particularly to foster the activities of Early Career Researchers within the Society.
Fellowships are awarded to members of the International Society of Biomechanics (ISB) who fulfill a series of requirements concerning membership, ISB Congress participation, scientific achievements and service to the ISB or the discipline of Biomechanics. A list of potential candidates for the next class of fellows is established by the Assessors of the Fellows, based on received nominations. This list is discussed among the fellows and the list of recommended candidates is submitted to the Executive Council of the ISB.
ISB Fellows contribute to the service and leadership of the ISB by providing active support to various activities organized by ISB Officers, Affiliate Societies, or Technical Groups. Since their specific mission is related to the activities of Early Career Researchers within the Society, they participate actively in the Mentoring Program, as mentors, but also as intermediates between mentees and mentors.
Please come and meet the Fellows at their booth during the ISB 2021 Congress in Stockholm. More information will be communicated soon.
