Meeting focus: Therapeutic, diagnostic, analytical and basic research applications of aptamers

Provisional meeting format: The meeting will run over two days. Each day will consist of invited presentations by senior scientists, and submitted short presentations by emerging researchers and students. There will also be an opportunity to present posters digitally, including flash-talks by poster presenters.

• Day 1: 14th April 2021, 1400h BST (to be coordinated by Dr Maureen McKeague, McGill University, Montreal, Canada)
• Day 2: 15th April 2021, 0800h BST (to be coordinated by Dr Sarah Shigdar, Deakin University,  Melbourne, Australia)

Invitation to submit an abstract: We invite emerging aptamer researchers and students to submit abstracts for oral and poster presentations. We particularly encourage final year doctoral students and early/mid career postdoctoral researchers/junior group leaders to submit oral abstracts, as we believe this virtual event will provide their research an excellent exposure, critical analysis by attending senior researchers and new career opportunities.

SAVE THE DATE!

This conference will bring together leading researchers, from both academia and industry, to share their recent findings on a range of topics related to Bio- and Nano-Sensors, Bioelectronics, Chemical Sensors, Physical Sensors, Sensor Applications, and Smart Systems. It will focus on significant advances in the area of sensorics, enabling increased sensitivity, portability, and connectivity. Therefore, the target participants for the proposed conference are experts in the sensors community while, at the same time, the conference is expected to be mutually beneficial for young researchers and students.

We are eager to listen to the presentation about “Development of LATE PCR protocol for SARS-CoV-2 Detection” given by BFRAA at the 8th International Symposium on Sensor Science from 17 – 28 May 2021.

SAVE THE DATE!

We are eager to listen to the presentation about “Microfluidic devices and diagnostic chips from Roll-to-Roll production” given by Ms. Pelin Tören Özgün from JOANNEUM RESEARCH at LOPEC 21 from 23 – 25 March 2021.
