National Symposium on Microwave Field Measurement, Biological Effects and Application in Nano Science at JNU Delhi | MICRO-NANO-2011
National Symposium On Microwave Field Measurement, Biological Effects and Application in Nano-Science(MICRO-NANO-2011)
Symposium Date: March 4-5, 2011
In collaboration with IEEE-MTT Society
Venue: School of Environmental Sciences, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi
Organized and Sponsored by
Jawaharlal Nehru University and Microwave Applications Society of India (MASI), New Delhi
About Symposium
A symposium on “Microwave field measurement, biological effects and application in nanoscience” is based on nanotechnology, biomedical, biophysical and environmental research issues. The ongoing issue in environmental science “electromagnetic pollution” has been chosen to explore the effect of Electromagnetic field (EMF) on biological systems. The EMF generated by cell phones and their towers are most frequent source which interfere with living system and causes adverse effect on their growth and development. Over three billions of people in more than 200 countries are daily exposed consciously to EMF. Thousands of them and many others are also exposed to EMFs (e.g., base stations, wireless phones, and wi-fi) of varying strength unintentionally and sometimes unconsciously. These fields are currently created mostly by mobile phone communication units and transmitting towers and are of major concern for the society because of their close proximity to human populations and sensitive somatic organs (e.g., brain (hippocampus, pineal gland), eyes, and testes). It needs to highlight the adverse affects of RF-EMW on biological systems by reviewing and continuing relevant studies and research to deeper understanding of this important health issue. Several studies represent these effects on reproductive pattern and brain system of male Wistar rat’s. Now the study demands to explore the
mechanism of field interaction with biological system. It also needs to measure the field emissions emitted by mobile phone and their towers. This is an important issue to protect the human being by unseen radiations emitted from various gadgets. Emphasis will also be laid to use the nanoparticle for such purposes to protect against hazardous effect. The proposed workshop will point out the Electromagnetic field radiation (especially mobile phone and microwave oven and many more appliances) effect in living beings and their solution by using nanoparticle application. It is therefore imperative that its implications must be fully explored and safety criteria be understood and implemented. Keeping this in view, it is planned to organize a two day symposium to discuss the issue in detail. A limited number of participants will be offered financial assistance for travel and local hospitality. Those interested, may send their request along with demand draft (DD) (as mentioned on page 4) by January 20, 2011.
The topics to be covered will include but not limited to the following:-
1) Principle of Microwave radiations 2) Electromagnetic Fields-Bio-interactions and solution 3) Electromagnetic Fields and Environment 5) Radiofrequency Fields measurement and Dosimetry 6) Radiation hazards and safety Standards 7) Nanotechnology in wastewater treatment 8) Nanoscience applications in Medical, biological & environmental issues.

Symposium on Applications of Flow Cytometry in Marine Biology at NIO Goa
What is this all about?
National Institute of Oceanography (NIO), Goa, a constituent laboratory of Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, New Delhi in collaboration with BD Biosciences is organizing a one day symposium on 'Applications of Flow Cytometry in Marine Biology' on 8 April 2010.
Flow cytometry continues to contribute to the knowledge of aquatic prokaryotes (bacteria & archaea) and phytoplankton. These organisms are key components of marine environment because of their diversity, abundance and the large variety of metabolic activities. Flow cytometry is an important tool in their analyses. It improves our understanding of the heterogeneity of cell populations and helps to elucidate their functional role. Further, cell studies can also be extended to genome analysis.
This symposium, the first of its kind in India, will be addressed by renowned marine flow cytometry scientist,
Prof. Dr. Ger Van Den Engh (University of Washington, Seattle & BD, USA).
Recent developments in flow cytometry will be covered by Dr. Gopal Pande (Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB), Hyderabad, India)
and Dr. John Wotherspoon (BD, Australia).

2nd International Symposium on Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics Applications toward Drug Discovery and Development at NIPER,Punjab
What is this all about?
2nd International Symposium on Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics (DMPK) Applications toward Drug Discovery and Development 27th and 28th February 2010 in association with Bristol-Myers Squibb and National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPER) S.A.S. Nagar 160 062, Punjab, India
National Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research (NIPER) has been established by the Government of India under the aegis of Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers at S.A.S. Nagar (Mohali). The institute has been declared as an Institute of National Importance by an act of Parliament.
ABOUT THE SYMPOSIUM
The main goals of the Symposium are to: 1) provide a better understanding of the role that drug metabolism, drug transporters, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics play in the drug discovery/development process; 2) evaluate new and current techniques and models associated with drug metabolism and drug transporters, as well as development of pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic models; 3) gain insights into the issues encountered during the drug discovery process and the interface between discovery and clinical development; and 4) identify processes for reducing the attrition of drug candidates through a better understanding of metabolism and in vitro and in vivo correlations.
This is primarily a lecture-based symposium intended for students and scientists from industry, academia, health-based government organizations, and healthcare professionals with a background in chemistry, biology, or the pharmaceutical sciences, with some experience in the principles and techniques of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics. The symposium is also intended for experienced researchers in these areas who wish to broaden or supplement their area of expertise, as well as contribute to the discussion topics. Experts from India and abroad in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics will give presentations and lead discussions at the Symposium.
