2. Scope of “3rdInternational Symposium onNanomedicine (ISNM2009-2)” and “Molecular Imaging and Systems Biology” The combination of top-down and bottom-up nanotechnologies started a real revolution in nanotechnology. Medical treatment is one of the good fieldswhere we will find applications of this new technology. As a result, we can expect these new technologies to be used to develop novel devices of treating cancer and many other intractable diseases. The aims of this symposium are (1) to provide a platform on which to discuss the future prospects for these science-technologies and construct an international human network in the fields of Nano and Biomedical Molecular Science, and (2) to incubate excellent young generation researchers in these fields utilizing this network. Concerning these aims, we especially consider the importance of Asian network, and invite several speakers in the relating fields from these countries. The 3rd symposium is arranged by Tohoku University (Prof. Ohuchi group) as a Chair University. And also the satellite symposium is arranged by the University of Tokyo (Prof. Ozawa group). Imaging is the central topics of the 3rd symposium.
