The Institute of Nanotechnology, in partnership with NanoNed, brings together some of the world’s leading researchers and companies in the fields of medical diagnostics, drug design and delivery, imaging and regenerative medicine to show how the application of nanoscience and nanotechnologies can contribute towards answering this multifaceted challenge. The Conference will be invaluable to all involved in meeting this challenge including medical researchers, industry, healthcare professionals, regulators, technology assessors and those involved in the delivery and financing of healthcare.
The NanoSpain2010 edition will emphasize the importance at the Spanish and European level of the launch of the Centre for Research in Nanomedicine and Biotechnology, Bionand. This center, to be inaugurated in 2010, came into existence at the instigation of consejerías de Salud e Innovación de la Junta de Andalucía, Universidad de Málaga and Fundación Imabis and its ambition is to become Europe's top centre for innovation and expertise in Nanomedicine and Biotechnology. The meeting includes a thematic line on NanoBiotechnology/Nanomedicine.
First World Conference on Nanomedicine and Drug Delivery (WCN-2010)
April 16-18, 2010, Kottayam, Kerala, India
This conference will enhance the knowledge and skills of researchers by sharing multidisciplinary knowledge and expertise between scientists from academia and industry, with the theme of "Nanotechnology for Health." Topics discussed will include 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; Nanotoxicology; Imaging and diagnostics; Tissue engineering and Interactions of nanomaterials with living tissue.
Particles 2010 is an international conference examining the science, technology, and business aspects of medical/biochemical diagnostic, pharmaceutical, and drug delivery applications of particle technology. Symposia will address diverse topics including nanoparticles, hydrogels, chemical and drug delivery, controlled release, suspensions, inhalation, liposomes, micelles & microemulsions, characterization, gene delivery, siRNA delivery, chemical and biochemical diagnostics, separations, surface modification, critical and supercritical fluid applications, spray drying, emulsions, and multiple emulsions. The conference targets practicing scientists, clinical research physicians, engineers, managers, innovators, and entrepreneurs, and embraces the theme "particles for detection and treatment."
NANOSMAT-5: 5th International Conference on Surfaces, Coatings, and Nanostructured Materials (http://www.nanosmat-conference.com/)
October 19-21, 2010, Reims, France
NANOSMAT-5 will continue to foster the gathering of talented people from around the world to exchange ideas and information. The conference will thereby provide a platform for interactions between researchers; scientists and engineers from industry, research laboratories and academia, and it will feature state-of-the-art developments in all aspects of processing, characterisation and applications of nanostructured materials. A major purpose of NANOSMAT conferences is to foster collaborations among scientists, engineers, researchers and industrialists, and thus to stimulate future technological developments. The event will provide ample opportunity for conference delegates to network in a friendly and supportive environment.
Donald Haynie, PhD, Associate Editor of Nanomedicine: NBM organizes a nanomedicine session at NANOSMAT.
