In terms of helping biomechanics in international conferences, it's almost like the old saying, "the more the merrier". It gives you a diverse outlook on biomechanics and tells you what other people are thinking. My interests have become widened by talking to people from different countries. I expect students going to international conferences will have the same effect, possibly a much greater effect, in that they will get a broader perspective of what biomechanics is.
