Interdisciplinary Researches of Biotechnology and Soft Materials in United Kingdom and Kitakyushu April 14 (Thu), 2011, Kitakyushu, Japan Symposium chair; Prof. Kazuo Sakurai (University of Kitakyushu) Prof. Tony James (Bath University) Supported by; Biomedical Material Center of Univ. of Kitakyushu The Society of Polymer Science, JP, Kyushu Branch The Society of Fiber Science and Technology, JP, Seibu Branch JST, CREST Program Conference Scope There is anymore no clear boundary between the science & technology of soft-materials and modern biotechnology. To promote and strengthen the potential in biotechnology for future, understanding the interdisciplinary of soft-material science, including organic chemistry, polymer chemistry, and biochemistry, and biotechnology is essentially important. We will invite several outstanding researchers on these fields to present their recent studies. 14:00 Opening Remark 14:10 Tony James (Bath University) Sensing for Health using Boronic Acids 15:10 Kazuo Sakurai (University of Kitakyushu) An attempt to mimic virus-like polyhedron shape for drug delivery 15:55 Poster session and coffee break 16:25 Phil Gale (University of Southampton) New Anion Receptors and Transporters 17:25 Shigeori Takenaka (Kyushu Institute of Technology) Development of an electrochemical biosensing technology using ferrocene derivatives 18:10 Closing Remark 18:30 Wine Party Conference Fee Free, Wine Party at cost Place Meeting room of Media Center http://www.kitakyu-u.ac.jp/env/lang_en/map.html Symposium Chair Professor Kazuo Sakurai University of Kitakyushu, JST/CREST Contact Sponsorship Sponsored by Biomedical Material Center of Univ. of Kitakyushu The Society of Polymer Science, JP, Kyushu Branch The Society of Fiber Sci. & Tech., JP, Seibu Branch Office e-mail; sakurai@env.kitakyu-u.ac.jp Kazuo Sakurai
