Course Description:

This year, the sixth edition of the “Research and Nanomedicine” Workshop is organized in hybrid format:
both in presence in the lecture hall (Aula Maggiore) of the Chemistry Department (Viale Taramelli 12, Pavia) and live-streaming (YouTube). In addition to the young researchers from the University of Pavia, other young scientists from other universities have been invited in order to promote the knowledge and the meeting between various groups that carry out research in the area of nanomedicine and 3Rs, with a view to enabling the birth of scientific collaborations, synergies, and participation in future projects. Two “invited talks” from the University of Bari and the National Research Council (CNR) of Genoa, respectively. Furthermore, the workshop is divided into 2 sessions: the morning session is dedicated to Nano-therapies and Nano-diagnostics while the afternoon session is focused on Regenerative Medicine.
