S3I 2027 in Lisbon, Portugal

About this conference

This biology conference takes place at Centro de Congressos do Instituto Superior Técnico in Lisbon, Portugal on May 19–21, 2027. Abstracts and papers are due by February 7, 2027. It is one of 36 upcoming biology conferences in Portugal; the next one after it starts on May 19. It is organized by PREMC.

Sensor systems exhibit extraordinary sensitivity for detecting physical, chemical, and biological entities at the micro/nanoscale. The detection and analysis of molecules on miniature devices with many possible applications in health, environment, analysis, and security is particularly exciting. A new class of label-free micro and nanosensors is starting to emerge, allowing us to observe dynamic processes at the single molecule level directly, with unprecedented spatial- and temporal resolution and without significantly affecting the natural and functional movements of the molecules. Micro- and nanosensors by virtue of their small interaction length probe molecules over a dynamic range often inaccessible by other techniques. Their small size enables an exceedingly high sensitivity, and the application of quantum optical measurement techniques can allow us to approach or surpass classical limits of detection. Advances in optical and electrical measurement methodology, laser interferometry, quantum optics, micro/nanofluidics, control of molecules and reactions at the nanoscale, DNA origami/synthetic molecular machines, in-vivo and wearable sensing materials, all contribute to the rapid progress of the field of Single Molecule Sensors and NanoSystems. It is this convergence of previously often disparate fields that is accelerating the advancements in micro and nano-sensing.
