What is Nanomedicine?
Learn how the application of knowledge at the nanoscale and the ability to manipulate materials using nanotechnology will revolutionize medicine. Hear about some of the most groundbreaking new developments in medical technology. This intensive one-day course will include how nanotechnology is being applied to medical imaging, lab-on a-chip, quantum dots and other novel diagnostic tools, biosensors, regenerative medicine, advanced and smart medical materials, drug targeting and delivery systems, nano-bio-electronic interfaces and novel devices. The course will also examine some of the key associated risk, ethical and regulatory issues.
Who Should Attend? This introductory one-day “What is Nanomedicine?” module will provide those with an existing involvement or interest in medicine or medical science with a broad overview of some of the most important aspects of, and developments in, the rapidly growing new field of nanomedicine.

Nanobiosensors
This course provides an introduction to the rapidly emerging field of Nanobiosensors. Nanotechnology is exerting increasing influence on how we understand, design and build new analytical devices to unravel the conundrums of systems biology and deliver novel bioelectronic devices. Whether it is the challenge of integrating millions of assays on a single chip or developing a tiny biocompatible artificial cell for implantation, the art of engineering to nanometre tolerances or building supramolecular machinery offers us new phenomena to tackle key medical and environmental issues. This course will introduce the concepts, materials, engineering principles and market opportunities opened up by this new integrating discipline.
The attendee is expected to receive a comprehensive package of the emerging field of nanobiosensors including the background, latest developments and achievements as well as the market opportunities. Register your interest, email gemma.mcculloch@nano.org.uk
