Dear colleagues!
Longer than a year Russia's military invasion to Ukraine, has made Kharkiv and the Institute for Problems of Cryobiology and Cryomedicine of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine the zone of active hostilities. Nevertheless, we are invincible, so despite the obstacles, the leadership and staff of the Institute go on their scientific and educational activities.
The Council of Young Scientists jointly with the Administration of the Institute for Problems of Cryobiology and Cryomedicine of the NAS of Ukraine are pleased to invite you to participate in the 47th Annual Conference of Young Scientists
"Cold in Biology and Medicine - 2023".
Details of participation
Young scientists, PhD students, undergraduate students are welcome to take part in the conference activity.
The work of the conference is planned in three major areas: cryobiology, cryomedicine, biotechnology.
The main topics are as follows:
mechanisms of damage to biological objects under the influence of low and extremely low temperatures;
low temperature storage of human, animal or plant cells, tissues, organs, including preparing for storage, thawing/warming;
culturing of cells and tissues;
response of biological objects to low temperature;
mechanisms of natural cold resistance of living systems and recovery after cold exposure;
cold adaptation in animals and plants;
low and extremely low temperatures in medicine;
experimental and clinical transplantation;
cryobiological and cryomedical devices;
low temperature banks and depositories.
Conference languages: Ukrainian, English.
Presentation formats: oral (Ukrainian/English), poster.
Abstracts of the report and presentation of illustrative materials of the oral report (slides) should be submitted in English, regardless of the language of the report to be presented.
