Dear colleagues,
After the success of the 1st International Symposium in Applied Bioimaging, hosted by INEB and co-organized with IPATIMUP and IBMC, we are very pleased to announce this year’s event, that will take place in Porto on October 3-4, under the topic – From molecule to man.
The Symposium targets those who have an interest in the application of bioimaging, especially in the field of biomaterials, regenerative medicine and nanomedicine.
The symposium will have the duration of two days, preceded by a hands-on workshop on bioimaging (held on October 2). Lectures will take place in a very informal environment, and participants will be encouraged to bring questions that may contribute to the advancement of knowledge in the field of Bioimaging applied to Biomaterials and Regeneration through integrative approaches.
