Sessions and Tracks
Track-1: Biomedical Sciences
Biomedical Sciences are a posture of sciences creaming piece of common science or academic science, or both, to expand knowledge, interventions, or technology that are of use in healthcare or public power. Such as self-restraint of Medical Microbiology, Clinical Virology, Analytic Epidemiology, Genetic Epidemiology, Biomedical Engineering and Medical Sciences. In explaining physiological system operating in medicinal process however, psychophysiology can be regarded as vital science. Biomedical Sciences, as accurate by the UK Quality Assurance Agency for higher education yard Stick affidavits in 2015, combines those science self-restrains whose primary target is the biology of Human Health disease and outlook from the generic exploring of biomedical sciences and human biology to higher specialized subject fields such as Pharmacology, Human Physiology and Human Nutrition. Biomedical Sciences is derived by applicable primary sciences containing Anatomy and Physiology, Cell Biology, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Genetics and Molecular Biology, Immunology, Mathematics and Statistics, and Bioinformatics. As similar it has a broader range of academic research actions and economic importance than that mean by hospital laboratory sciences. Biomedical Sciences are the dominant focus of bio science exploration and backing in the 21st century.
Track-2: Biopharmaceutical
A Biopharmaceutical is called as a natural medical product in any Pharmaceutical Drug product produced in cited from or Semi-Synthetic from natural origins. Different from completely synthesized medicinal, they correspond of vaccines, complete blood, blood entrails, allergenic, physical cells, gene curatives, apkins, recombination remedial protein, and living drugs used in Cell remedy. Biological Medicine can be tone- assured of sugars, proteins, nucleic acids or complex combinations of these substances, or may be Living Cells or apkins. They (or their precursors) are detached from living sources- human, beast, factory, fungal, or microbial. They can be used in couplet mortal and Animal Medicine.
Language around memoir medicinal differs in between groups and realities with colourful terms pertaining to different sessions of rectifiers within the general Biopharmaceutical sections. Some nonsupervisory agencies use the terms Biological medicinal goods or remedial natural prod to relate specifically to finagle Macro Molecular Products like protein and nucleic acid- grounded medicines, distinguishing them from goods like blood, blood factors or Vaccines that are generally uprooted straight from a natural fabrication. Special medicines, a recent bracket of medicinal, are high- cost medicines that are frequently biologics.
Track-3: Clinical Research
Clinical Research refers to all or any research carried out on humans (healthy or sick people). It focuses on improving knowledge of diseases, developing diagnostic methods and new treatments or medical devices to make sure better patient care. Medical research studies involving people are called clinical trials. There are two main sorts of trials or studies interventional and observational.
Interventional trials: It aims to seek out more about a particular intervention, or treatment. A computer puts people participating are put into different treatment groups. This is often so that the research team can compare the results.
Observational studies: It aims to seek out what happens to people in different situations. The research team observe the people participating, but they don’t influence what treatments people have. The people participating aren’t put into treatment groups.
There are five stages of Clinical Trails are there
Track-4: Genetics
Genetics is that the scientific study of genes and heredity—of how certain qualities or traits are passed from parents to offspring as a result of changes in DNA sequence. A gene may be a segment of DNA that contains instructions for building one or more molecules that help the body work. DNA is formed like a corkscrew-twisted ladder called a helix. The 2 ladder rails are called backbones and therefore the rungs are pairs of four building blocks (adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine) called bases. The sequences of those bases provide the instructions for building molecules, most of which are proteins. Researchers estimate that humans have about 20,000 genes.
All of an organism’s genetic material, including its genes and other elements that control the activity of these genes, is its genome. An organism’s entire genome is found in nearly all of its cells. In human, plant, and animal cells, the genome is housed during a structure called the nucleus.
Track-5: Immunology
Immunology may be a branch of medicine and biology that covers the medical study of immune system in humans, animals, plants and sapient species. In such we will see there is a difference of human immunology and comparative immunology in veterinary medicine and animal biosciences. Immunology measures use charts and differentiate in context in medicine the studies of immunity on cell and molecular level, and therefore the immune system as part of the physiological level as its functioning is of major importance. within the different states of both health, occurring symptoms and diseases; the functioning of the system and immunological responses such as autoimmune diseases, allergic hypersensitivities, or in some cases malfunctioning of system as for example in immunological disorders or in immune deficiency and the specific transplant rejection.
Immunology has applications in numerous disciplines of drugs, particularly within the fields of rheumatology, virology, alergology (dermatology), bacteriology, oncology and further transplantation medicine.
Track-6: Biomedical Engineering
Biomedical Engineering (BME) is that the application of engineering principles and methods to solve medical and biological problems. It also integrates electrical, mechanical, chemical and bioscience principles in the development of new healthcare technologies and systems. Biomedical engineers specialise in advances in technology and medicine to develop new devices and equipment for improving human health. For instance, they could design software to run medical equipment or computer simulations to test new drug therapies.
Biomedical engineering or medical engineering studies with the utilization of engineering truths and design approach to medicine and biology for healthcare intention. It gains to shut the varies between engineering and medicine, connecting the model and question solving skills of engineering with medical biological sciences to foremost health care treatment, together with in diagnosis, inspecting and therapy. It’s also along with the bottom scope of a biomedical engineer is the administration of present medical materials in hospitals while sticky to suitable industry standards. Biomedical engineering recently forced as its own study, as correlated too many other engineering fields.
Track-7: Physiology
Physiology is that the scientific study of functions and mechanisms in a living system. As a sub-discipline of biology, physiology focuses on how organisms, organ systems, individual organs, cells and biomolecules perform the chemical and physical functions in a living system.
According to the classes of organisms in the field can be divided into medical physiology, animal physiology, plant physiology, cell physiology, and comparative physiology. Central to physiological functioning are biophysical and biochemical processes, homeostatic control mechanisms and communication between cells. Physiological condition is the condition of normal function, while condition refers to abnormal conditions including human diseases. The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine is awarded by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences for exceptional scientific achievements in physiology related to the field of medicine.
Track-8: Cell Biology
The study of cells from its basic structure to the functions of each cell organelle is called Cell Biology. Hooke was the first Biologist who discovered cells. All organisms are made from cells. They’ll be made up of a single cell (unicellular), or many cells (multicellular). Cell biology is that the study of cell structure and function and it revolves around the concept that the cell is the fundamental unit of life. That specialize in the cell permits a detailed understanding of the tissues and organisms that cells compose.
The Four Main sorts of Cells:
Track-9: Microbiology
Microbiology is that the study of all living organisms that are too small to be visible with the naked eye. This includes bacteria, Achaea, viruses, fungi, prions, protozoa and algae, collectively referred to as 'microbes'. These microbes play key roles in nutrient cycling, biodegradation/bio deterioration, global climate change, food spoilage, the cause and control of disease, and biotechnology. Because of their versatility, microbes are often put to work in many ways: making life-saving drugs, the manufacture of biofuels, cleaning up pollution, and producing/processing food and drink. Microbiologists study microbes, and a few of the most important discoveries that have underpinned modern society have resulted from the research of famous microbiologists, like Jenner and his vaccine against smallpox, Fleming and therefore the discovery of penicillin, Marshall and therefore the identification of the link between Helicobacter pylori infection and stomach ulcers, and zur Hausen, who identified the link between papilloma virus and cervical cancer. Microbiology has helped to treat and stop diseases which are caused by viruses, bacteria, protozoa and fungi. In medicine, for instance, microbiology led to the invention and development of Antibiotics and Vaccines.
Track-10: Biochemistry
Biochemistry (biological chemistry) is that the study of chemical processes within and relating to living organisms. A sub-discipline of both chemistry and biology, biochemistry could also be divided into three fields: structural biology, enzymology and metabolism. Over the last decades of the 20th century, biochemistry has become successful at explaining living processes through these three disciplines. Most areas of the life sciences are being uncovered and developed through biochemical methodology and research. Biochemistry focuses on understanding the chemical basis which allows biological molecules to offer rise to the processes that occur within living cells and between cells, successively relating greatly to the understanding of tissues and organs, also as organism structure and function. Biochemistry is closely associated with molecular biology, which is that the study of the molecular mechanisms of biological phenomena.
Track-11: Telemedicine and Health Care
Telehealth is that the distribution of health-related services and information via electronic information and telecommunication technologies. It allows long-distance patient and clinician contact, care, advice, reminders, education, intervention, monitoring, and remote admissions. Telemedicine is usually used as a synonym, or is employed in a more limited sense to describe remote clinical services, like diagnosis and monitoring. When rural settings, lack of transport, a scarcity of mobility, conditions thanks to outbreaks, epidemics or pandemics, decreased funding, or a scarcity of staff restrict access to care, telehealth may bridge the gap also as provide distance-learning, meetings, supervision, and presentations between practitioners, online information, health data management and healthcare system integration. Telehealth could include two clinicians discussing a case over video conference; a robotic surgery occurring through remote access; physiotherapy done via digital monitoring instruments, live feed and application combinations; tests being forwarded between facilities for interpretation by a better specialist; home monitoring through continuous sending of patient health data client to practitioner online conference or even videophone interpretation during a consult.
Track-12: Biomedical Instrumentation and Medical Technologies
Bioinstrumentation (Biomedical Instrumentation) is an application of biomedical engineering, which focuses on the devices and mechanics won’t to measure, evaluate, and treat biological systems. It focuses on the utilization of multiple sensors to monitor physiological characteristics of a human or animal. Such instrumentation originated as a necessity to constantly monitor vital signs of Astronauts during NASA's Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo missions. Bioinstrumentation may be a new and upcoming field, concentrating on treating diseases and bridging together the engineering and medical worlds. The bulk of innovations within the field have occurred in the past 15-20 years. Bioinstrumentation has revolutionized the medical field, and has made treating patients much easier. The instruments/sensors convert signals found within the body into electrical signals. There are many subfields within bioinstrumentation they include: biomedical options, creation of sensor, genetic testing and drug delivery.
Current use
Fitness Trackers, Biomedical Optics, Genetic Testing, Drug Delivery/Aiding Machines, Agriculture, Botany, Imaging Systems, Biomedical Sensors, Bioelectronics, Bionics and Medical Robotics, Biochips and Bio-MEMS, Artificial intelligence and neural networks, Micro/Nano-bioengineering, Cardiovascular and Respiratory Systems Engineering, Wearable Technology.
Track-13: Biomedical Signal and Image Processing
A Biosignal is any signal in living beings which will be continually measured and monitored. The term biosignal is usually used to refer to bioelectrical signals, but it's going to refer to both electrical and non-electrical signals. The standard understanding is to refer only to time-varying signals, although spatial parameter variations (e.g. the nucleotide sequence determining the genetic code) are sometimes subsumed also. An electrical bio signal, or bioelectrical time signals, usually refers to the change in current produced by the sum of an electrical potential difference across a specialized tissue, organ or cell system just like the nervous system. Thus, among the best-known bioelectrical signals are:
Medical imaging is that the technique and process of imaging the interior of a body for clinical analysis and medical intervention, also as visual representation of the function of some organs or tissues (physiology). Medical imaging seeks to reveal internal structures hidden by the skin and bones, also as to diagnose and treat disease. Medical imaging also establishes a database of normal anatomy and physiology to form it possible to identify abnormalities.
Track-14: Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering
A Biomaterial may be a substance that has been engineered to interact with biological systems for a medical purpose, either a therapeutic (treat, augment, repair, or replace a tissue function of the body) or a diagnostic one. As a science, biomaterials are about fifty years old. The study of biomaterials is named biomaterials science or biomaterials engineering. It’s experienced steady and strong growth over its history with many companies investing large amounts of cash into the development of new products. Biomaterials science encompasses elements of drugs, biology, chemistry, tissue engineering and materials science.
Tissue engineering may be a biomedical engineering discipline that uses a combination of cells, engineering, materials methods, and suitable biochemical and physicochemical factors to revive, maintain, improve, or replace differing types of biological tissues. Tissue engineering often involves the utilization of cells placed on tissue scaffolds in the formation of new viable tissue for a medical purpose but is not limited to applications involving cells and tissue scaffolds. While it had been once categorized as a sub-field of biomaterials having grown in scope and importance it are often considered as a field of its own.
Track-15: Toxicology
Toxicology may be a scientific discipline, overlapping with biology, chemistry, pharmacology, and medicine, that involves the study of the adverse effects of chemical substances on living organisms and therefore the practice of diagnosing and treating exposures to toxins and toxicants. The connection between dose and its effects on the exposed organism is of high significance in toxicology. Factors that influence chemical toxicity include the dosage, duration of exposure (whether it's acute or chronic), route of exposure, species, age, sex, and environment. Toxicologists are experts on poisons and poisoning. There’s a movement for evidence-based toxicology as part of the larger movement towards evidence-based practices. Toxicology is currently contributing to the sector of cancer research, since some toxins are often used as drugs for killing tumour cells. One prime example of this is often ribosome-inactivating proteins, tested within the treatment of leukaemia. Toxicology uses the facility of science to predict what, and the way chemicals may cause harm and then shares that information to protect public health. When talking about toxicology it's important to keep a few things in mind.
Track-16: Drug discovery and Drug development
Drugs were discovered by identifying the active ingredient from traditional remedies or by serendipitous discovery, like penicillin. More recently, chemical libraries of synthetic small molecules, natural products or extracts were screened in intact cells or whole organisms to spot substances that had a desirable therapeutic effect in a process known as classical pharmacology. After sequencing of the human genome allowed rapid cloning and synthesis of huge quantities of purified proteins, it's become common practice to use high throughput screening of large compounds libraries against isolated biological targets which are hypothesized to be disease-modifying in a process known as reverse pharmacology. Hits from these screens are then tested in cells then in animals for efficacy.
Drug development is that the process of bringing a new pharmaceutical drug to the market once a lead compound has been identified through the process of drug discovery. It includes preclinical research on microorganisms and animals, filing for regulatory status, like via the United States Food and Drug Administration for an investigational new drug to initiate clinical trials on humans, and should include the step of obtaining regulatory approval with a new drug application to market the drug. The whole process from concept through preclinical testing in the laboratory to clinical trial development, including Phase I–III trials – to approved vaccine or drug typically takes quite a decade.
Track-17: Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacodynamics (PD) is that the study of the biochemical and physiologic effects of drugs (especially pharmaceutical drugs). The consequences can include those manifested within animals (including humans), microorganisms, or combinations of organisms (for ex: infection). Pharmacodynamics and Pharmacokinetics (PK) are the most branches of pharmacology, being itself a subject of biology interested in the study of the interactions between both endogenous and exogenous chemical substances with living organisms. Particularly, pharmacodynamics is that the study of how a drug affects an organism, whereas pharmacokinetics is that the study of how the organism affects the drug. Both together influence dosing, benefit and adverse effects. Pharmacodynamics is usually abbreviated as PD and pharmacokinetics as PK, especially in combined reference (for example, when speaking of PK/PD models). Pharmacodynamics places particular emphasis on dose–response relationships, that is, the relationships between drug concentration and effect. One dominant example is drug-receptor interactions as modelled by
L + RóLR
Where L, R, and LR represent ligand Where L, R, and LR represent ligand (drug) receptor and ligand-receptor complex concentrations, respectively. This equation represents a simplified model of reaction dynamics which will be studied mathematically through tools such as free energy maps.
Track-18: Antibiotics
An antibiotic may be a type of antimicrobial substance active against bacteria. It’s the most important type of antibacterial agent for fighting bacterial infections, and antibiotic medications are widely utilized in the treatment and prevention of such infections. They’ll either kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria. A limited number of antibiotics also possess antiprotozoal activity. Antibiotics aren't effective against viruses such as the common cold or influenza drugs which inhibit viruses are termed antiviral drugs or antivirals rather than antibiotics. Sometimes, the term antibiotic literally "opposing life", from the Greek roots á¼€ντι anti, "against" and βίος bios, "life is broadly wont to refer to any substance used against microbes, but within the usual medical usage, antibiotics (such as penicillin) are those produced naturally (by one micro-organism fighting another), whereas non-antibiotic antibacterial (such as sulphonamides and antiseptics) are fully synthetic. However, both classes have the identical goal of killing or preventing the growth of microorganisms, and both are included in antimicrobial chemotherapy. "Antibacterial" includes antiseptic drugs, antibacterial soaps, and chemical disinfectants; whereas antibiotics are a crucial class of antibacterial used more specifically in medicine and sometimes in livestock feed.
Track-19: Research and Trials on HIV/AIDS
A clinical test is a research study done to evaluate new medical approaches in people. HIV and AIDS clinical trials help researchers find better ways to stop, detect, or treat HIV and AIDS. Samples of HIV and AIDS clinical trials underway include studies of new HIV medicines, studies of vaccines to stop or treat HIV, and studies of medicines to treat infections associated with HIV and AIDS. The advantages and possible risks of participating in an HIV and AIDS clinical trial are explained to study volunteers before they decide whether to participate in a study. Use the find a study search feature to seek out HIV and AIDS studies looking for volunteer participants. Some HIV and AIDS clinical trials enroll only people that have HIV. Other studies enroll people that do not have HIV.
What is an HIV and AIDS clinical trial?
HIV and AIDS clinical trials help researchers find better ways to stop, detect, or treat HIV and AIDS. Every HIV medicine was first studied through clinical trials.
-
Examples of HIV and AIDS clinical trials include:
-
Studies of latest medicines to prevent or treat HIV and AIDS.
-
Studies of vaccines to stop or treat HIV.
-
Studies of medicines to treat infections associated with HIV and AIDS.
Track-20: Pre-clinical Research
Deciding whether a drug is prepared for clinical trials (the so-called move from bench to bedside) involves extensive preclinical studies that yield preliminary efficacy, toxicity, pharmacokinetic and safety information. Wide doses of the drug are tested using in vitro (test tube or cell culture) and in vivo (animal) experiments, and it's also possible to perform in silicon profiling using computer models of the drug–target interactions. very similar to for clinical trials, there are certain sorts of trials that have to be done, like toxicology studies in most cases, and other trials that are specific to the actual study compound or question. Understanding that the goal of preclinical trials is to maneuverer into the clinical stage is key and the studies should be designed around that goal. Watch our online seminar on moving from preclinical to clinical trials. Aren’t getting too worked up on too many preclinical trials that may not be necessary but make sure to consult with experts who can help you decide which trials you should do and if you are ready to move into clinical stage.
