The conference will cover major topics of neutron scattering and neutron
radiation for health ranging from treatment of amyloid diseases, protein
folding, details of enzyme behaviour, understanding of cell-membrane
interactions, identification of new drug targets, development of
advanced drug-delivery systems, antibiotic resistance, treatment of
genetic diseases, implants and biocompatible materials,  tissue
regeneration, cancer diagnosis and therapy, radiopharmaceuticals as well
as medical applications and treatments. In addition methodological
instrument developments are an important contribution to enhance medical
