&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
After the overwhelming success of “1st Biotechnology World Congress" the organizers feel i

mmense pleasure to announce the "2nd&nbsp;Biotechnology World Congress"&nbsp;(2nd&nbsp;BWC)&nbsp;to be held in Dubai, UAE, from February 18th-21st, 2013. Keeping in consideration the long list of prospective participants who could not be accommodated in the 1st Biotechnology World Congress due to its limited duration of just two days,&nbsp;2nd&nbsp;BWC&nbsp;will now be a four day international conference featuring lectures and poster presentations on selected topics by leaders in the field from academia and industry. The&nbsp;2nd&nbsp;BWC&nbsp;will be unique in promoting the translational nature of modern biotechnological research, with emphasis on both the basic science in industry and academia as well as its practical and clinical applications. Presentations would focus on pharmaceutical biotechnology, vaccines, CNS, cancer, antibodies, protein engineering, plant and environmental technologies, transgenic plant and crops, bioremediation, microbial diversity research, business development, strategic alliances, partnering trends, product opportunities, growth business models and strategies, licensing etc.



The principal goal of this symposium will be to present the world with the breakthroughs in Biotechnology and bring together both young and experienced scientists from all regions of the world to open up avenues for their meaningful collaboration at regional and global level.&nbsp; The best current research and non-commercial aspects of the field will be reviewed.



A number of Nobel Laureates will deliver keynote lectures at the conference. There will be sessions in all the major areas of biotechnology, classed on the basis of areas as given below.



An International Advisory Board has been convened consisting of eminent scientists from all over the world, including among its members, four Nobel laureates.&nbsp; Please visit the web site&nbsp;http://dubaiconf02.com/bwc&nbsp;&nbsp;for details.

Abstracts for consideration as Invited or Session Lectures, and Poster Presentations can be submitted at&nbsp;http://dubaiconf02.com/bwc&nbsp;Alternatively, a maximum one-page length abstract written in English can be submitted to us by e-mail at&nbsp;&nbsp;info@dubaiconf03.com&nbsp;&nbsp;All submitted abstracts received will be reviewed on the basis of scientific merit, novelty and practical application. Due to the limited slots available, only the best abstracts will be selected. The abstracts of the conference and a selection of the proceedings will be published in a high Impact Factor journal by an international publisher. We suggest that all interested participants register and book their hotel in Dubai as early as possible



Please join us in sunny Dubai for both work and enjoyment in February 2013 to explore a plethora of information on current research in biotechnology and to network with fellow academics and industrial researchers.
