Official Information:

Bioinorganic chemistry is discussing the role of different metal ions (including the essential and toxic elements) in physiological processes

The major subjects of the conference include:
Structural and functional models of metalloenzymes
 Inhibition of metalloenzymes
Metal ion interactions with biomolecules (DNA, peptides, etc.)
Chelation therapy: Design and synthesis of selective chelating agents
Metal based drugs
Metal complexes as anticancer and antiviral agents
Metal complexes in the clinical diagnosis
Human diseases related to metal ion excess and/or deficiency
Metal ions and neurodegeneration 
Metal ion toxicology
Environmental aspects of bioinorganic chemistry, phytomining and phytoremediation
Analytical sensors based upon metal ions and/or ligands
