The central theme of the conference is to provide a platform for people to convert knowledge into application through collaborative endeavours. We aim to provide an exciting scientific program with a wide range of topics including bionanomaterials, therapeutic delivery vehicles, synthesis and characterisation as well as clinical assessments of antibacterial, anticancer and immune modulation peptides. With representation from both academia and industry, we will provide a space to communicate ideas as well as explore new ones. There will also be an opportunity for young researchers to present their academic posters with a selection of short talks provided by PhD students on their current work.
