Our society faces increasing healthcare pressure due to challenges from environmental pollutions. Researches on major human diseases and health related problems have been the upfront of biomedical science. DNA damage repair is one of the key intersection between environmental cues and biological genetic factors. It has a crucial role in maintaining genetic stability and keeping us from various diseases, especially cancer. The International Conference on Biomedical and Environmental Sciences & Technologies (IcBEST) is a biennial meeting with worldwide recognition and influence, focusing mainly on genome stability and cancer. Every two years, many world known domestic and international scholars gather together and share the most recent research advances on environmental toxicology, tumor biology, cell biology and radiology.
Previous IcBEST conferences have been successfully held at following locations:
