Pharmaceutical Sciences calls for papers / meetings & conferences

Call for Abstracts: Molecular Pharming - Recent Progress in Manufacturing Medicines in Plants

Friday, 21 September 2012 09:00 - 17:00 London, United Kingdom

Molecular Pharming is on the brink of taking off! After two decades of development and academic proofs of principle, a number of recent advances have moved the technology rapidly towards commercialisation. The first products are now being licensed in the USA. The first-in-human clinical trial of a plant derived monoclonal antibody has been performed in Europe. And there has been significant investment into manufacturing facilities around the world.

This meeting will review the progress of the field, highlight major technological advances and scan the horizon for future developments.

The Deadline for abstract submissions for oral presentation is June 10th 2012

Abstracts for poster presentation only can be submitted up to two weeks before the event

Please note that there will be a best poster prize.

Call for Abstracts: 3rd Annual International Conference on Advances in Biotechnology (BioTech 2013)

18 - 19 March 2013 Singapore

Paper Submission (Full Paper) Deadline 28 September 2012

Biotechnology is a field of applied biology that involves the use of living organisms and bioprocesses in engineering, technology, medicine and other fields requiring bioproducts. The concept encompasses a wide range of procedures for modifying living organisms according to human purposes - going back to domestication of animals, cultivation of plants, and "improvements" to these through breeding programs that employ artificial selection and hybridization.

This multi-disciplinary conference aims to provide a challenging forum and vibrant opportunity for researchers and industry practitioners to share their original research results and practical development experiences on specific new challenges and emerging issues.

Call for Abstracts: Polymer Chemistry Conference 2012

Polymers: From Biomedical Applications to Energy

Monday November 12 2012 - Friday November 16 2012 Xcaret, Mexico

Talk abstract deadline: Tuesday June 26 2012
Poster abstract deadline: Wednesday September 12 2012

The continued application of synthetic chemistry to the development of new polymer-based materials has given polymer chemistry a critical role in the development of new materials across a broad range of applications that impact our lives, most recently in biomedical and energy-related areas. Synthetic methodologies that allow the shaping of polymeric materials to function as biomaterials in applications including tissue engineering, imaging, and the targeted delivery of drugs and biological materials will be presented. We will showcase creative designs and synthetic strategies for these multifunctional polymeric systems and composite materials. The multifaceted properties of polymers allow for the increasing advancement of polymers in energy-related applications. The optimization of polymer-based organic photovoltaic and hybrid materials for harvesting and storing solar energy, as well as the development of new semiconducting polymers will be topics of particular interest. The unique site and forum will give the attendees many opportunities to exchange ideas, discuss research challenges and forge new collaborations. The total number of attendees will be kept to a maximum of 100 to facilitate such interactions. The themes in 2012 will include: - Synthesis of Biomaterials - Applications of Nanomaterials in Medicine - Self assembly - Theranostics - Polymer Surfaces - Polymers for Imaging and Devices - Polymers and Energy

Call for Abstracts: Eleventh International Congress on Drug Therapy in HIV Infection

11-15 November 2012 Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom

Keeping up to date with developments and new ideas in HIV treatment presents a major challenge to treating physicians, healthcare providers and researchers. Objective scientific assessment of new drug treatments and therapeutic strategies is therefore essential. It will be the aim of the Eleventh International Congress on Drug Therapy in HIV Infection to provide a wide-ranging yet accessible forum for such assessment.

The Scientific Programme for Glasgow will again address the use of differing therapeutic strategies in a variety of clinical settings. Alongside treatment strategies, adverse events, resistance and other important sessions within the overall programme, developing world perspectives, paediatric treatment and care, and community-related treatment issues will receive detailed attention. The Congress will again adopt the Pre-Congress Workshop format as introduced at HIV-10, which proved to be a popular session taking place on the opening morning of the Congress.

Abstract submissions are invited from all relevant sources. Specific details on the submission process and subject categories will be provided in January 2012. Online electronic submission will be available. The deadline for receipt of abstracts is 16 July 2012.
