Frontiers inNanomedicine and Space Biology

Scope

The workshop aims to explore the innovative intersections of nanotechnology and biological sciences, focusing on applications in space biology and advanced molecular techniques. Participants will delve into the latest developments in nanomedicine, understanding how nanoscale materials and devices can revolutionize medical diagnostics and therapies, particularly in the unique environment of space. Emphasis will be placed on the utilization of zebrafish and chick embryo models, both of which are invaluable in biomedical research due to their genetic similarities to humans, transparency during early development, and rapid life cycles. Through hands-on sessions and expert-led discussions, attendees will gain proficiency in advanced molecular biology techniques and bioimaging. The workshop will also address the challenges and opportunities presented by conducting biological experiments in microgravity, offering insights into how space conditions affect cellular and molecular processes. By integrating nanomedicine with space biology, the workshop seeks to inspire new research avenues and collaborations, fostering a deeper understanding of life sciences and enhancing the development of novel therapeutic strategies for both terrestrial and extraterrestrial applications.
