Else Kröner Fresenius Symposium
Oktober 07-09, 2024
Dear Colleagues, dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
Welcome to our 2024 Else Kröner Fresenius Symposium on Nanomedicine: From bench to bedside. Bridging the boundaries between physical, chemical, biological and medical sciences, nanomedicine enables us to apply nanotechnological advances in human medicine to diagnose and treat the patients in a more effective and personalized way.
Acknowledging the scientific and clinical potential of this field, the Else Kröner Fresenius Foundation supported the 2010 symposium on nanomedicine organized by SEON. Since then, this field has considerably developed and advanced, with multiple examples of nanoparticulate systems finding their way into clinical trials.
Marking the 15th anniversary of our section, the 2024 Else Kröner Fresenius Symposium with additional support of the Manfred Roth Foundation (Fürth, Germany) aims to provide a summary of the progress in nanomedicine over the past decade, with a particular focus on the most recent advances in the field. During the three intensive days of thematic sessions comprising speeches and discussions, this year‘s symposium will bring together leading experts in the fields of nanomedicine, chemistry, pharmaceutics, engineering, robotics and AI, optics and imaging, toxicology and immunology, regenerative medicine, cardiology, oncology, as well as drug, vaccine and RNA delivery, from both academia and industry, providing fascinating insights into the latest developments of nanosystems for disease diagnosis and personalized therapy, as well as their preclinical and clinical assessment.
Our intention is to promote an open scientific exchange and openended discussions of the cutting-edge findings, giving all participants the opportunity to learn and share their ideas about the future concepts in nanomedicine during the scientific sessions, but also to network during the social events. The contents of this symposium will be published in a special issue of Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications (BBRC).
Thank you for joining us this year in Erlangen.
We wish you a highly informative and results-orientated symposium.
