Each year IUPAC endorses a large number of independently organized conferences, symposiums and workshops that cover a wide range of specialized topics in chemistry. Endorsement by IUPAC attests to the quality of the scientific program and indicates the host country’s assurance that scientists from all countries may participate. The conference must be located in a country represented in IUPAC by a National Adhering Organization. See program details.

IBS is organised under the auspices of the IUPAC

Name: 17th International Biotechnology Symposium and Exhibition (IBS 2016)
Start: 2016-10-24T00:00:00-04:00
End: 2016-10-26T23:59:59-04:00
Location: Melbourne Convention Centre

since 1960 and is the most representative biotechnology event at the global level, at which more than 1,000 participants congregate from academia and industry, to explore the advances and frontiers of science and applied biotechnologies. IBS intends to present and promote the relevant contribution that chemistry provides to the development of biotechnological research and industry.

The IBS 2016 program will present the most advanced issues in biotechnology, green chemistry and its related fields, which will be discussed by a selected group of international speakers and lecturers. Topics will include agri-business; industrial and environmental biotechnology; pharmaceutical, medical and molecular; bioenergy and bio-refinery; the bio-economy, policy and investment; and biosensors and nanotechnology.
