About
The first NMIN Trainee Symposium provided NMIN HQP and members of the NMIN HQP Network (NHN) with unique value-added professional development opportunities, allowing for skill and knowledge acquisition to enhance career development and complement academic and scientific training.
The Symposium also fostered networking and collaboration among trainees and young professionals who share an interest in the field of nanotechnology-enabled drug delivery, gene therapy and diagnostics. See the program.
This event immediately followed NMIN’s 2022 Scientific Meeting, held at the same venue.
