Biomedicines Webinar | Photodynamic Therapy and Wound Healing | Session 1, 19 May 2025

A message from the webinar Chair:
To celebrate the success of a Special Issue related to the effects of photodynamic therapy published in Biomedicines (“Photodynamic Therapy 2.0”), a webinar has been organized, inviting seven authors who will speak for 20 minutes about their published manuscript. This webinar will be split into two different sessions (with four speakers for session 1 on 19 May and the other three speakers for session 2 on 20 May). The manuscripts included in this volume are all of great quality, dealing with different areas in the field of photodynamic therapy, and therefore reflect the need to investigate the questions raised. This webinar will also be an opportunity to meet this need with the publication of the new volume “Photodynamic Therapy (4th Edition)”.
Date: 19 May 2025 at 10:00 a.m. CEST | 4:00 p.m. CST (Asia) | 5:00 p.m. KST
