Dr. Suwussa Bamrungsap of NANOTEC Target Discovery Lab received the Poster Award for her research poster “Magnetic Relaxation Switches for Cancer Detection Based on Aptamer Functionalized Magnetic Nanoparticles” at ICYRAM 2012 which was held in Singapore during July 1-6.
The International Union of Materials Research Societies (IUMRS) launched a new Global Materials Network (GMN). As an inaugural meeting of GMN, IUMRS announced a new conference designed specifically with young researchers in mind, the International Conference of Young Researchers on Advanced Materials (ICYRAM).
The mission of ICYRAM is to provide a platform for researchers under the age of 40 to present technical findings of their research, to network within the international community of other young researchers, and to increase the breadth of their general materials-based knowledge.
There will also be opportunities for young researchers to seek the insight and advice of successful senior researchers through plenary sessions and instructive seminars.
