Biological science and engineering are complementary disciplines which have independently brought about significant advances to clinical and biomedical sciences in recent times. In this post-genomic era, applying engineering principles in the studies of cellular and molecular phenomena is increasingly recognized as instrumental to further extend the boundaries of understanding complex medical and biological systems, to advance healthcare technologies and drug discovery activities .

ICCMB 2007 aims to bring together scientists/researchers, engineers and scholars from varied academic and industrial backgrounds for a session of open sharing and learning of state-of-the-art knowledge and breakthroughs in emerging bioengineering areas. The conference, through its programme, also seeks to reflect and address new challenges that come with new knowledge in bioengineering today. Prominent plenary and keynote speakers from globally renowned institutions in the United States, Europe and Asia Pacific will be featured in this conference, thus providing a platform for conference participants to interact and network with leading experts in the biomedical science and bioengineering fields. Active participation from invited chemical, biomedical, biotechnology and healthcare companies in this conference is also expected to generate productive cross-fertilization of ideas between industry and academia.

The ICCMB 2007 organizing committee, hope to welcome you to Singapore in 2007, and we certainly look forward to your participation and contributions to this meeting.
