ISEV Workshop on EV biomolecular corona

The International Society of Extracellular Vesicles (ISEV) is collaborating with the University of Brescia  and the Italian Society of Extracellular Vesicles (EVIta) to host the first-ever workshop on EV biomolecular corona. The event will bring together experts from the synthetic and biogenic nanoparticle fields (with focus on EVs) to share tools, foster new studies, and showcase the remarkable and most recent research in the EV-corona space worldwide. Talks and round-table discussions will revolve around four main topics:

1. Fundamentals of Biomolecular Corona: origin, thermodynamics and colloidal properties.

2. EV corona biogenesis, biological significance and molecular composition.

3. Biogenic nanoparticle corona separation and characterization.

4. Potential applications of the biomolecular corona (e.g., clinics, diagnostics, etc).

The workshop will be held on February 27th-28th, 2025 at the Faculty of Law, University of Brescia, Palazzo Calini ai Fiumi, Brescia, Italy

Announcement

We are pleased to announce that Prof. Kenneth A. Dawson, the Director of the Centre for BioNano Interactions at University College Dublin, Ireland, and a globally recognized expert in the field of nanoparticle protein corona, will open the workshop with a plenary talk.
