About ISBE2023/IWNT2023

The International Symposium on Biomedical Engineering (ISBE) is an annual event that offers a unique platform for interdisciplinary exchange among professionals in medicine and engineering. By creating an opportunity for networking and knowledge sharing, ISBE aims to advance the field of biomedical engineering on a global scale. This year, the 2023 symposium will be co-hosted with the International Workshop on Nanodevice Technologies (IWNT), thereby widening its scope to include cutting-edge research in nanodevice technology. The IWNT focuses on uniting experts to discuss and share the latest developments and breakthroughs in nanotechnology. Scheduled to occur on November 21-22, 2023, this collaborative event will be held at Hiroshima University, offering attendees a comprehensive overview of current innovations in both biomedical engineering and nanodevice technologies.
