The theme of BVA 2016 will be “New Life Sciences: The Road Ahead”. The conference focuses on the three major themes “health”, “food and agriculture” and “environment”. Around 2000 researchers and interested students are expected to participate in the event. Alongside this conference, the BA organises a major fair titled “BioFair@BioVisionAlexandria2016” and a poster session for young researchers and scientists. As part of the “Bio Vision” conference a track under the title “Robotics and Biorobotics in Life Sciences” will be launched. It is planned to tackle these research fields in depth for the benefit of society, especially developing countries.
In the year 2014 the DZW had participated in the conference in Bibliotheca Alexandrina with lectures, information booths and a panel discussion featuring researchers from TU München, TU Berlin and FU Berlin.
