2010 Fall Season Conferences

September

14-18 14th International Biotechnology Symposium and Exhibition — Palacongressi, Rimini, Italy. “Biotechnology for the Sustainability of Human Society”; “knowledge-based” is a good thing. We’re more interested in this approach than in all of the usual networking and partnering conventions put together (though we’re sure there will be plenty of those things at IBS 2010).

26-1 Oct OzBio2010: The Molecules of Life – from Discovery to Biotechnology — Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, Melbourne, Australia. A joint meeting combining the 12th International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IUBMB) Conference, the 21st Federation of Asian and Oceanian Biochemists and Molecular Biologists (FAOBMB) Conference, and the ComBio2010 meeting. Wow! Just in time for Oz Spring, gourmet gift baskets too…before it gets too hot down undah…

October

20-22 World Congress on Engineering and Computer Science — San Francisco, USA. This mega-symposium includes 15 more or less simultaneous conferences, the most interesting of which (to us) are the International Conference on Computational Biology and the International Conference on Chemical Engineering. Among the areas of interest will be biochemical, bio-molecular, biomedical and many other great topics that begin with “bio”. We’re really looking forward to the discussion on the Ethics of Bioinformatics, but that’s just us.

November

2-4 BioMalaysia 2010 — Kuala Lumpur Convention Center, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Probably still recovering from BioMalaysia 2009, so details are still somewhat sparse about this rapidly-growing biotech conference (which usually centers around agriculture, healthcare, and industry).

10-12 20th Neuropharmacology Conference — San Diego, USA. “High Resolution Neuropharmacology: Structure Changes the Paradigm” Very Specific, but a can’t-miss conference if you’re interested in drug research and development.

December

11-14 International Conference on Stem Cells and Cancer: Proliferation, Differentiation, and Apoptosis (ICSC-2010) — Pune, India. Great destination for biotech academics and professionals who focus on stem cell and gene therapy research.

16-17 3rd International Conference on Science and Technology (ICSTIE 2010) – Gurney Resort Hotel & Residence, Penang, Malaysia. Biochemistry and biopharma head the list, but biotech in general will be a common theme among many related topics.
