Overview

The 4th conference on Experimental and computational approaches in Molecular Medicine (ECAMM-2024) will be held from 14th to 16th October 2024 in Hanoi, Vietnam.

The ECAMM-2024 is organized by the VNU Key Laboratory for Multiscale Simulation of Complex Systems. It is sponsored by the VNU University of Science and the Institute for Computational Biomedicine (INM-9/IAS-5), Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH.

The ECAMM has been a biannual activity of the Key Laboratory since 2016. The ECAMM is aimed to be an international conference for scientists in Vietnam, in the region and worldwide. Our mission is to foster scientific exchanges and to promote a high-standard level of research and education in Vietnam and foreign experts in the field of molecular medicine.

The conference will cover topics of theoretical, computational, and experimental multidisciplinary science in the following fields:

  • Novel drug design strategies
  • Neuromedicine
  • Cancer research
  • Viral diseases
  • Materials Informatics in life science
  • Machine learning in molecular science

Online registration for the conference is open from 1 April 2024 to 30 August 2024. Abstract submission deadline is 30 September 2024.

We are looking forward to welcoming you at the conference.

The Organizing Committee.

Our goals

Computational biomedicine is at its infancy in Vietnam, yet top Vietnamese theoretical physicists, chemists, computer scientists can greatly contribute to the development of powerful tools for contributing in solving relevant problems for the human health.

The KeyLab for Multiscale Simulations of Complex Systems offers a unique chance to do outstanding research in neuromedicine, with unique perspectives of a high level career in science. The research is strongly interdisciplinary, with colleagues from Germany (IAS-5/INM-9 at Forschungzentrum Jülich) and UK (Culham Center for Fusion Energy at Abingdon) bringing in their expertise to the projects. Students and postdocs exchanges with Juelich will further foster the collaborations.

In this context, the biannual ECAMM meeting aims to offer a platform for scientists to present their research results, learn new methods, exchange ideas, make network and cooperate … in a stimulating and friendly environment.

The ECAMM covers different topics of molecular medicine, materials and life sciences … encompasing theoretical, computational and experimental oriented research.

Previous ECAMM conferences organized by the KeyLAB:

  • September 22nd - 29th, 2019. The 3rd KeyLAB international conference: the "Second training course and international workshop on multiscale biophysics computations", Hanoi, Vietnam.
  • June 27th - 29th, 2018. The 2nd KeyLAB international conference: "Recent Computational and Experimental advances in Molecular Medicine", organized as a self-contained section in collaboration with the BME7 conference, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
  • June 30th - July 01st, 2016. The 1st KeyLAB international conference: The "2016 International Workshop and Summer school in Physics – Biology – Pharmacy: Molecular Dynamics in Drug Design", Hanoi, Vietnam. The conferene is one of several scientific activities to inaugurate the establishment of the MSCS KeyLAB.
