敬邀參加中華科工聯誼會「癌症治療和預防的開創性研究」科技研討會 ! (10/20)

聖地牙哥中華科工聯誼會(San Diego Chinese American Science and Engineering Association) 與與聖地牙哥加州大學(UCSD) IEM研究所、加州州立大學聖地牙哥分校(SDSU) HDMA研究中心共同主辦「癌症治療和預防的開創性研究」科技研討會(Pioneering Research in Cancer Treatment and Prevention)，並將於10/20(Sat)在高通公司Q棟禮堂舉辦舉行，歡迎對此議題有興趣的南加民眾在10/15(Mon) 點選以下報名專頁參加。此研討會由中華民國科技部、駐洛杉磯台北經濟文化辦事處科技組贊助，科工會將提供免費盒餐和精美充電器紀念品給參加研討會的貴賓喔～！

駐洛杉磯台北經文處科技組組長張揚展表示，2018年諾貝爾醫學獎頒給兩位癌症的免疫療法先驅學者美國免疫學家艾利森（James P. Allison）和日本免疫學家本庶佑（Tasuku Honjo），使得癌症治療與預防科技更受矚目。聖地牙哥是全球生物科技及無線通訊的重鎮，特別是癌症的精準治療，全球聞名。此次科技研討會專注於如何運用跨領域技術，在癌症治療和預防方面的研究合作，開創新而有效的抗癌方法；此次研討會將匯集國立交通大學、陽明大學及洛杉磯加州大學(UCLA) 、UCSD、南加州大學(USC) ，以及SDSU的著名科技學者擔任講員，對這個議題展開討論和交流。
