Nanomédecine – Développement et défis

Venue: COMSTECH Secretariat, Islamabad
(March 15 – 17, 2021)
Deadline for Registration: Jan 15, 2021

Note: This workshop is planned to be a hybrid event (Physical and virtual).

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease classified as pandemic disease by World Health Organization (WHO). At the time of writing (June 17, 2020), 269 countries, areas or territories are affected, with over 8.3 million people tested positive and around 448,100 deaths worldwide.

Covid-19 outbreak has put huge pressure on the modern world, has brought many industries to halt and showed the dearth and shortcomings of healthcare system prompting the need to invest more in scientific research. In this scenario, like many areas of health sciences, Nanotechnology also offers new prospects of developing affordable, quick and scalable solutions in diagnoses and treatment of COVID-19, and manufacturing of personal protective equipments, in addition to many other diseases.

Realizing the significance of Nanomedicine for wider public health and health sciences in the OIC states in scenario of COVID-19 and beyond, COMSTECH is arranging a workshop tentatively planned during March 15-17, 2021. In this workshop a systematic approach will be followed to introduce and elaborate on nanomedicine design, development, characterization, and the associated challenges thereof. In addition, the potential role of nanotechnology for the timely diagnosis of COVID-19 and other diseases will also be highlighted. Further conference details including the application process to participate in the workshop will be announced on this site within a few weeks.

Workshop will be conducted in Islamabad (Pakistan), located in the foothills of the mighty Himalayas, which is one of the worlds’s greener and urbanely planned cities having the most pleasant weather in the season of spring, therefore, offering a mix of scientific and recreational engagement during the planned workshop dates.

Target Audience:

Academics, students and researchers from the OIC countries are encouraged to apply.
