Theme
Medical care in the future boasts changes in medical practices as a result of the
advancement of both technology and medical science. Thanks to the astonishing
progress in molecular biology, genetic studies, and modern technology, lots of
diseases once fatal can be nowadays cured completely. Diverse and complex
aspects in todays medicine nevertheless stand for the uncharted territories that
request further clarification and exploration. It is our strong belief that the
advancement in medical science and technology can benefit not only the healthcare
sector but also the aspect of humanities.

medical students should also be taken into consideration. Relevant topics for the
conference are included, but not limited to the followings:
