Introduction
Molecular imprinting technology (MIT) has emerged as an important biomimetic molecular recognition methodology that allows for the rational development of antibody and enzyme alternatives for many applications. 2022 is the 50th anniversary of MIT.Although molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have found many applications in important areas such as separation, sample treatment and sensing, biomedical applications pose the largest challenges to the MIT due to the features of biological systems such as complex composition, severe interference, dynamic changes and so on. In recent decades, a large variety of MIPs have been developed for challenging biomedical applications, including disease diagnosis, cancer therapy, bioimaging, toxin neutralization, viral inhibition, and so on. Particularly, as a biomimetic solution, nanoscale MIPs (nanoMIPs) have exhibited unique strengths in these biomedical applications.
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of MIT and to facilitate the development of MIPs for biomedical applications, the Society of Molecular Imprinting, the Royal Society of Chemistry, and Nanjing University are going to jointly organize an on-line symposium, International Symposium on Molecular Imprinting Technology for Biomedical Applications 2022 (Biomed MIT 2022), September 26-28, 2022.
