The 2008 Cleveland NanoMedicine Summit, is the anchor event for Nano Week in Cleveland (in its fifth year) and will be co-hosted by NorTech's Nano-Network, the Cleveland Clinic Foundation and Case Western Reserve University. This conference has been incredibly successful in the past (as evidenced by national media attention and feedback from attendees) by bringing together scientists, clinicians, business professionals, investors and others to learn, discuss and interact under the umbrella of nanomedicine. We expect this year’s conference to be held over the course of two days on Thursday and Friday, September 25 and 26 at the Ritz Carlton in Cleveland, Ohio.

The 2008 Summit will focus on the use of nanoparticles for diagnostics and therapeutics. Session highlights include:
• Imaging cancer
• Drug delivery for cancer
• Biological investigation with nanoparticles
• Basic research using nanoparticle building blocks for nanomedicine
• Nanoparticles for gene therapy
