The IMBCs attract both local and international participants, offering a communication platform among international scholarly societies working in marine biotechnology. The IMBC is organized under the auspices of the IMBA (International Marine Biotechnology Association) and is associated with the “Marine Biotechnology” journal.
The philosophy of IMBC in the 21st century is based on applying scientific advances in marine science, molecular biology, engineering, and information technology to gain a better understanding of marine ecosystems. The goal is to develop new products, processes, or services while ensuring sustainable management of marine resources. Marine biotechnology, which combines both fundamental and applied research, is essential for innovations in sectors such as health, food, cosmetics, pollution control, and energy production.
The conferences will cover a wide range of topics, from marine pharmacology to bioenergy. They will bring together internationally renowned experts, fostering high-level scientific exchange.
IMBC promotes the development of international partnerships among laboratories, universities, and companies, thus accelerating research and innovation and the creation of consortia. By promoting discoveries and strengthening global dialogue, IMBC also aims to draft a roadmap for developing innovative and sustainable solutions for the future of marine biotechnology.
10 sessions are planned, as well as masterclasses.
