Nanomedicine has the potential to drastically change the way patients will be treated in the upcoming years: numerous benefits, including improved efficacy, bioavailability, dose–response, targeting ability, personalization, and safety compared to conventional medicines can be hypothesized. The Nanomedicine Course is dedicated to Master students, PhD students, early stage researchers, and whoever is interested in an introduction to this field of research. The scientific program includes overview of the contribution of different microscopy techniques to the development of nanomedicine (Super-resolution microscopy; Scanning and transmission electron microscopy; AFM). Moreover, potential and emerging applications of nanomedicine in therapies will be explored.
The course will be held exclusively REMOTELY with maximum 35 participants (the registration order will be valid)
