This book gathers selected peer-reviewed papers presented at the
Second International Conference on Infectious Diseases and
Nanomedicine (ICIDN), held in Kathmandu, Nepal on December 15-18,
2015. It also includes invited papers from the leading experts in
the related fields. The book highlights the importance of
"Interdisciplinary Collaborative Research for Innovation in the
Biomedical Sciences," the motto of the ICIDN conference. In
particular, it addresses interdisciplinary scientific approaches
for systematic understanding of the biology of major human
infectious diseases and their treatment regimes by applying the
tools and techniques of nanotechnology. It also provides
cutting-edge information on infectious diseases and nanomedicine,
focusing on various aspects of emerging infectious diseases:
cellular and molecular microbiology; epidemiology and infectious
disease surveillance; antimicrobials, vaccines and alternatives;
drug design, drug delivery and tissue engineering; nanomaterials
and biomedical materials.
This book addresses earthquakes, with a special focus on the Ghorka
earthquake, which struck parts of central Nepal in April 2015.
Drawing on this disastrous event, it closely examines various
aspects of earthquakes in contributions prepared by international
experts. The topics covered include: the geological and geophysical
background of seismicity; a detailed inventory of the damage done
by the earthquake; effective damage prevention through
earthquake-safe buildings and settlements; restoration options for
world-heritage buildings; strategies for providing technical and
medical relief and, lastly, questions associated with public life
and economy in a high-risk seismic zone. Combining perspectives
from various fields, the book presents the state of the art in all
earthquake-related fields and outlines future approaches to risk
identification, damage prevention, and disaster management in all
parts of society, administration, and politics in Nepal. Beyond the
specific disaster in Nepal, the findings presented here will have
broader implications for how societies can best deal with
disasters.
The book addresses the interdisciplinary scientific approach for
the systemic understanding of connections between major human
diseases and their treatment regime by applying the tools and
techniques of nanotechnology. It also highlights the
interdisciplinary collaborative researches for innovation in
Biomedical Sciences. The book is a first volume which presents
collection of best papers presented in the First International
Conference on Infectious Diseases and Nanomedicine held during Dec.
15-18, 2012 in Kathmandu, Nepal. The book focuses mainly on the
topics: emerging infectious diseases; antimicrobial agents,
vaccines and immunity; drug design, drug delivery and tissue
engineering and nanomaterials and biomedical materials.
