FEBS-IUBMB-ENABLE Conference 2024





















 

The FEBS-IUBMB-ENABLE Conference is an international, interdisciplinary 3-day event entirely organized for and by young researchers – PhD students and postdocs – from the molecular life sciences disciplines, bringing together up to 300 young participants from all
over the world.

From experts in biomedical research to outreach activities with local citizens, and from useful workshops to alternative career chats with scientists, this event has been fully planned and organized by young scientists thinking about the research interests, career needs, and networking preferences of young researchers.

The 2024 conference will be held from 4th- 6th December at the Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine at Nanyang Technological University Singapore in Singapore.

​

The conference comprises of three main parts:

1. A scientific symposium that explores the latest research and pioneering through short talks, flash talks and posters, developments in biomedical research, and allows young scientists to present their work.

2. Activities focused on career development, with a Career Day that includes workshops, career chats with professionals, and a job fair.

3. Diverse outreach activities in Singapore, to engage with the general public and give stakeholders a voice on biomedical discoveries.

 

The profound impact of Artificial Intelligence on biomedical and healthcare research is being explored by researchers worldwide. This has inspired the theme "Artificial Intelligence – Reshaping Biomedical and Healthcare Research".

 

The event will bring together researchers from different fields to learn about the critical role AI plays in advancing biomedical sciences and healthcare. The two-day scientific symposium features keynote speakers from different fields including metabolic diseases, population and global health, respiratory and infectious diseases, neuroscience and mental health, and skin disease and wound repair. They will help us learn more about the interplay between artificial intelligence and biomedical sciences with plenty of facetime to network and discuss their findings.

 

Several renowned keynote speakers from different fields will share their expertise and experience in four sessions:

• Metabolic Diseases, Population and Global Health, with Jingmei Li (Genome Institute of Singapore, Singapore)

• Respiratory and Infectious diseases, with Namkug Kim (University of Ulsan College of Medicine, South Korea) and Halima Bensmai (Qatar Computing Research Institute, Qatar).

• Neuroscience and Mental Health, with Woo-Young Ahn (Seoul National University,

• Skin Disease and Wound Repair, with Zongyuan Ge (Monash University, Australia) and Reiko Tanaka (Imperial College London, UK).

​

Additionally, the third day of the conference will be entirely dedicated to professional development. Participants will have the chance to broaden their horizons and expand their capabilities through three complementary career activities: insightful discussions with experts from different career paths in the alternative career chats section, workshops aimed at building new skills, and a job fair hosting potential employment options
