NANOMEDICINE

Nanomedicine Workshop provides medical doctors, engineers, scientists, new researchers and stakeholders from different disciplines with a unique and exciting format to learn the most current information about nanomedicine advances in the early diagnosis and treatment of diseases. It will be a perfect platform to share, experience, foster collaborations across health care, pharmaceutical, biotech & diagnostic industries with hospitals and academia.

There is an enormous gap between clinical practice and Nanosciences & Nanotechnologies. This workshop attempts to fill this gap more perfectly and more currently by enlisting world renowned speakers and stakeholders in Nanomedicine with up-to-date information towards unmet clinical needs. It will feature a scientific program of comprehensive talks, special sessions, debates, oral and poster presentations of peer-reviewed contributions to showcase the most recently breaking research development, discovery, industrial progress and milestones in Nanomedical, Nanobiotechnology, Regenerative Medicine and Nanopharmaceutics R & D.

Nanomedicine Workshop will address progress and prospects for nanomedicine including, in-vitro and in-vivo diagnostics, biosensors, imaging, targeted drug delivery, nanomaterials, regenerative medicine. Updates on preclinical and clinical trials, clinical hurdles in a wide spectrum of diseases (Oncology, Cardiovascular Disease, Orthopaedics, Neurodegenerative, Infections, Diabetes, Ophthalmology etc) and nanomedicine- oriented solutions will be presented. Nanotoxicology and ethics will constitute the controversial issues to be discussed.

Together with the co-located Bioelectronics Workshop, it will provide the latest advances on biosensors and bioactuators from bench to bedside. Fundamentals on biosensor design and manufacturing will be covered and translated into clinical applications.
