International Workshop on Polymer Structures for Medical Applications
Date: November 26, 2025 (Wednesday)
Venue: Centre of Polymer and Carbon Materials, Polish Academy of Sciences (CMPW PAN)
The workshop is organized within the framework of the NAWA “Welcome to Poland” project, supported by the Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange (Project No. BNP/WTP/2023/1/00015).
The aim of the workshop is to create an international platform for the exchange of knowledge and experience in the field of modern polymer materials and their biomedical applications. It is addressed to PhD students and young researchers conducting studies on the synthesis and modification of polymers leading to materials for regenerative medicine, tissue engineering, diagnostics, and drug delivery systems.
Based on submitted abstracts, the Scientific Committee will select 10 participants for oral presentations. All other accepted participants will present their research during the poster session.
Participation is free of charge.
All participants will receive conference materials and enjoy coffee and lunch.
Registration:
Due to the limited number of participants, we encourage early registration.
