We intend to have a gathering of researchers from the polymer community, biomedical industry, pharmaceutical companies, and sensor community who are interested in the state-of-the-art in molecular, macromolecular, and supramolecular recognition. This includes covalent and non-covalent assemblies, new synthesis strategies, artificial receptors, transduction effects, and bio-conjugation. Recent advances in these fields will be highlighted. The symposium will encompass six half-day sessions. We intend to have both invited and contributed oral papers and posters. We particularly solicit contributions from young and new investigators in this field. Abstracts and preprint submissions instructions can be found at:
