Date Friday November 19 2010 - Monday November 22 2010
Synopsis This conference will focus on polymer chemistry and materials science applied to biological problems of current relevance. Topics will include synthesis of functional polymers, integration of biomolecules, biohybrids, hydrogels, tissue engineering, controlled polymer synthesis, protein-sugar interactions, hybrid materials for disease diagnostics, biomaterials synthesis, and drug delivery.
World renowned scientists will give plenary lectures, and oral presentations will be selected from submitted abstracts.
Poster sessions and ongoing lively discussions are expected, and the participation of younger scientists is highly encouraged.
