Dear colleagues,
you are kindly invited to participate to the NIS Colloquium “Antimicrobial Biomaterials and their Potential Applications” that will take place on the 19th of June 2023 from 14 to 18:30 at the Department of Life Sciences and Systems Biology – Aula Magna – Via Accademia Albertina 13, Turin, Italy.
The workshop is organized by the Departments of Chemistry of the University of Turin and NIS Centre.
*Attendance is free, but you are required to register at the following link by June 15th: https://bit.ly/nisAntimicrobial
Antibiotics have seen extensive use in applications ranging from healthcare, livestock, and food security. However, wide-spread distribution and misuse of these antibacterial compounds has led to increased antimicrobial resistances (AMR), which is currently projected to affect over ten million lives by 2050.
As such, with antibiotics serving as a primary treatment for wound management, it is necessary to consider alternative strategies that do not promote the generation of antimicrobial resistances.
With this colloquium we wish to bring together national and international researchers that are tackling this topic from different perspectives with the aim to discuss the latest results and opportunities.
Confirmed speakers:
– Silvia Irusta, University of Zaragoza
– Manuel Arruebo, University of Zaragoza
– Sonia Fiorilli, Polytechnic of Turin
– Elisa Restivo, University of Pavia
– Sonja Visentin, University of Turin
Slots for oral contributions are available. If interested, please contact the organisers: nadia.barbero@unito.it or carlotta.pontremoli@unito.it
