Since 1993 the
Rencontres du Vietnam
, which is an official
partner of UNESCO, has
organised international scientific conferences
and schools to foster exchanges between
Vietnamese or Asia-Pacific scientists and colleagues
from other parts of the world.
The construction of the
International Centre for Interdisciplinary
Science Education
(ICISE)
in the city of Quy Nhon (Central Vietnam)
had the ambitious objective to focus on developing
Science and Education, helping young Asian students and
scientists to meet with the International Science community,
bringing the opportunity to accelerate their knowledge
from attending lectures and sharing ideas with overseas
high-level counterparts.
Mechanobiology 2025
The International Centre for Interdisciplinary Science Education (ICISE) will host the Mechanobiology III Vietnam: From Fundamental Research to Applications conference in Quy Nhon, Vietnam, 6-12 July, 2025.
The conference will showcase recent advancements in mechanobiology, focusing on the interplay of mechanical forces and biological processes. Combining insights from biology, physics, optics, materials science, and theoretical modeling, it will address fundamental questions in tissue mechanics and cellular dynamics and their applications in development and disease research. This event provides a platform to integrate mechanobiological principles with innovative technologies, fostering progress at the interface of fundamental research and biomedical applications. A detailed scientific programme is currently in preparation and this web site will be updated regularly. For any urgent information, please contact Wang XI (email). The conference will consist of in-person plenary sessions with both review and topical invited presentations, as well as parallel sessions with contributed talks selected among submitted abstracts. A special emphasis will be put on active participation of young researchers (PhD and early stage post-docs). The conference will be covering the following topics:
* Cell/Molecular Signaling: Microenvironmental cues and signaling pathways
* Disease Development & Biomedical Applications: Mechanopathology & new treatment strategies based on
mechanobiology
* Morphogenesis & Multicellular Processes: Collective cell behaviors, tissue mechanics, and developmental processes
* Biomaterials/Bioengineering: Mechanobio-inspired techniques & material approaches
* Single-Cell Migration: Mechanobiology of single-cell motility & adhesion
* Theoretical biophysics: The mathematic principles of mechanobiology
