Welcome to the Swedish Society of Biomechanics

The Swedish Society of Biomechanics was founded in 2018 with the core mission of advancing the study of biomechanics in Sweden and promoting collaboration among students, researchers and institutions. Embracing a broad perspective, the SSB recognizes the role of biomechanics in understanding biological systems in various disciplines. Since its founding, SSB has grown to consist of 229 members in 2023.
