IMPORTANT NEWS REGARDING COVID19 SITUATION
The millimeter wave and terahertz regions are frontier areas for research in physics, chemistry, materials science, biophysics, biology, and medicine. The interest in novel imaging, sensing and spectroscopy in the above communities has grown steadily during the past twenty years, as new instrumentation, as well as new techniques and new applications have become available.
In 2010 a workshop series entitled “International THz-Bio Workshop” started in Korea with the support of the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology. In 2016 its international organizing committee was encouraged to consider a rotation of this workshop series between different geographical areas. It was then decided to host the THz-Bio Workshop 2017 at ENEA-Frascati in Italy. After the success of this event ad a search of future possible sites, it has recently been decided to hold the 9th International THz-Bio Workshop at the world known “Ettore Majorana Foundation and Centre for Scientific Culture” in Erice, Sicily, in the frame of the activities of the Erice International School of Bioelectromagnetism (http://www.eisbem.eu/).
The aim of the “THz-Bio Workshop” is to bring together scientists from different communities to discuss a broad range of scientific issues in the Terahertz and adjacent parts of the Infrared and Microwave spectral regions. Topics of the Workshop include, but are not limited to: spectroscopic measurements on biological systems of increasing complexity, mechanisms of interaction and effects induced by the electromagnetic field, safety issues, technological developments of terahertz active & passive instrumentations and THz-Bio sensing & imaging. The programme of the Workshop will consist of invited, contributed papers and posters. Selected papers presented at the Workshop will be published as a special issue of the Journal of Infrared, Millimeter and THz Waves.
We cordially invite you to attend the “9th International THz-Bio Workshop”, which will be held ONLINE on April 19-23, 2021
