It is now for a second time that we can invite researchers to come to Giessen for an international exchange of the latest research and a discussion of ideas. This year again, the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) is sponsoring the event. The main topic for 2019 is 'Vibration in antibacterial and oncological therapy'. Many effects of mechanical vibration on tissue have been discovered so far. Clinical applications relying on vibration exist for a variety of conditions. The intracellular processes, however, are still largely not understood. And reproducibility remains a matter of potential for improvement. DFG funds for the 3rd conference in 2020 have already been approved for a focus on multifunctional trauma surgery implants.
