Stapp Car Crash Conference®
The Stapp Car Crash Conference® is the premier forum for presentation of research in impact biomechanics, human injury tolerance, military trauma, sports injury, and related fields that advance the knowledge of safety systems and injury protection. The Conference provides an opportunity to participate in free discussion regarding the causes and mechanisms of injury, experimental methods and tools for use in impact biomechanics research, and the development of new concepts for reducing injuries and fatalities.
