                      *** Second Announcement  ***

With the symposium "Frontiers in Biosensorics" a technologically important 
sphere of the future shall be put in the centre of interest, which is of 
great scientific and economic interest. Beside scientists and applicators 
from research and industry and representatives from the proper 
authorities, target audience of that event will especially be potential 
producers. Parallel with the symposium there will be the chance for 
scientists and industrial enterprises to present their projects and main 
fields of research and production in order to gain partners for common
future projects. Thus the Symposium will be a forum for all people 
interested in biosensorics in general and especially in contacts with 
potential partners in that field.

Another target group of the event are the scientists of different 
disciplines like e.g. immunochemistry, material research or physical 
technologies, which can contribute to the further development of biosensors 
by new results in basic research. In addition, students and young 
scientists of those fields, who will influence the development of that 
important technologically relevant sphere are invited to that symposium.

In two "blocks" the following subjects will be dealt with in special 
lectures: 

      o New biological identification systems for biosensors
      o Modified sensor surfaces and new analytical systems

After the lectures the participants of the symposium can discuss the 
subjects with the speakers.

During the coffee breaks there will an opportunity to have a look at the 
information stands, at which scientists and industrial enterprises will 
present their projects and research results. It is planned to invite 
especially technologically relevant industrial enterprises and thus to
establish an open forum between science and economy in order to promote the 
research and technology transfer in the Land of Brandenburg and over and 
above that.

The special lectures will be read by well-known speakers from science and 
economy not only from Germany but also from abroad. They guarantee that 
the symposium will be of a high quality. Parallel with that, an exhibition 
under the headline "Commercial Biosensors", with a main emphasis on 
East-German firms will show appliances, which are already available at the 
market.
