According to Prof. Dr. Pham Quoc Hung, the ocean is an abundant source of biological resources. Researching marine organisms can significantly contribute to the development of new pharmaceuticals, biomaterials, healthcare products, and medical technologies. Furthermore, biotechnology, artificial intelligence, and other advanced techniques will assist humanity in exploring, exploiting, and utilizing these resources more efficiently and sustainably.
Additionally, Prof. Dr. Pham Quoc Hung also noted that these research directions require close collaboration among multidisciplinary scientists, as well as between universities, research institutes, hospitals, and businesses. Nha Trang University expects BME11 to forge new connections and unlock numerous opportunities for cooperation in education, research, technology transfer, and applied product development between the university and the participating organizations.
Taking place from July 29 to 31, 2026, the conference focuses on key topics such as tissue engineering and regenerative medicine; artificial intelligence and data science in healthcare; biomedical optics and imaging; biomaterials; nanotechnology; medical devices, and technology transfer.
On the final day of the conference, July 31, 2026, plenary sessions, the Closing Ceremony, the award presentation, and a guided tour of the educational and research facilities will be held at Nha Trang University.
