Abstract submission
The organizing committee of the 18th International Conference on Biological Inorganic Chemistry (ICBIC18) invites abstract submissions for any topic relevant to bioinorganic chemistry.
Participants who wish to apply for a scientific contribution to the conference must submit an abstract for the consideration and approval of the Scientific Committee. Please indicate your preference for a lecture or a poster presentation. If you wish to apply for a lecture, please take into account that only a limited number of them will be selected by the Scientific Committee. Non-selected contributions will be automatically transferred to the category of poster communications.
Abstracts must be submitted until May, 31, 2017

- Nucleic Acids and Metals
- New Emerging Topics (in Bioinorganic Chemistry)
- Abstracts must be original and unpublished (works cannot be published or accepted in other congresses or forums)
- Carefully prepared abstracts facilitate the review process, as it is easier to judge the quality of presentations that are thoroughly and concisely described.
- Please write the abstract with a word-processing program, check spelling and grammar, proofread carefully, copy and paste it in to the space in the form. Choose appropriate thematic area and topic form the list provided.
