Heimatbühne Kochel a. See; Monday 16.09.2024 afternoon
In the PDT School, selected speakers will demonstrate the basics of photodiagnostics (PD) and photodynamic therapy (PDT). The aim is to refresh the basics, but also to introduce students, young scientists and scientists who are new in the topic, to the field of PD & PDT.
For this purpose, the basic topics of Chemistry, Physics, Biology as well as the expanding fields of Antimicrobial PDT and PDT in the Clinics will be presented. At the end of the PDT School, there will be an open Discussion and Round Table about the content presented as well as further questions.
