The major focus of the NanoBio-Europe Conference is set on medical applications of nanobiotechnology, in particular the characterization of cellular processes, machinery and interaction to control, manipulate or manufacture molecules or supramolecular assemblies to improve human health.
NanoBio-Europe2008 innovations are expected to bring high added value to biotechnological and pharmaceutical industries - most of these innovations based on multidisciplinary collaborations with experts from life-science, micro- and nanotechnologies, material science, physics and medicine.
