International Conference on Nanomedicine
Nanomedicine Conference
The Nanomedicine Conference aims to bring together researchers and developers from
around the world working in the following areas.
- Targeted delivery
- Diagnostics
- Regenerative Medicine
The Technical Theme of the Nanomedicine Conference will be “Nanotechnology for Health”.
Nanomedicine is defined as the application of nanotechnology to achieve breakthroughs
in healthcare. It exploits the improved and often novel physical, chemical and biological
properties of materials at the nanometer scale. It has the potential to enable early
detection and prevention, and to essentially improve diagnosis, treatment and follow-up
of diseases.
Nanomedicine is a very special area of nanotechnology, because: it is an extremely
large field ranging from in vivo and in vitro diagnostics to therapy including targeted
delivery and regenerative medicine; it interfaces nanomaterials (surfaces, particles,
etc.) or analytical instruments with “living” human material (cells, tissue, body
fluids) and it creates new tools and methods that impact significantly existing
conservative practices.
The NANOMEDICINE Conference will enhance the knowledge and skills of researchers
by sharing multidisciplinary knowledge and expertise between scientists from academia
and industry. The planned Technical Programme will include invited lectures as well
as oral and poster presentations on the following topics:
- Oral and pulmonary delivery of proteinic / peptidic drugs.
- Neurodegenerative diseases – crossing of the blood brain barrier.
- Diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
- Diagnosis and treatment of cancer.
- Diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders.
- Diagnosis of bacterial and virus infections
The selection of oral and poster presentations will be made by the International
Programme Committee.
