Symposium

Recent Advances in Medical Genetics and Genetic Engineering Bio-medical Environmental Application

Les 25 et  26 Mai 2006

 

Introduction & Objectives

 

The present Symposium will bring together researcher and professionals from public universities (Morocco, Belgium and USA). In setting where participants can freely explore ideas and offer insightful recommendation for changes in medical and environmental genetics fields.  Following introduction remarks and keynote presentation focussing on cytogenetics and biomedical & environmental applications, a series of working sessions have been organized in with expert facilitators will introduce each issue for discussion in medical genetics. For each session there will be a open discussion to review the funding and set forth recommendation for future actions between participants.

The aims of the present symposium are to:

- Define state of biotechnology in Morocco

- Organize meeting between medical genetic actor researchers

- Establish cytogenetics network and reinforce this  collaboration
