Division 2, Bioelectrochemistry

Bioelectrochemistry includes a broad variety of scholarly approaches leading to a better understanding of all living things at the macroscopic, microscopic/single-cell and nanoscopic/molecular level, characterizing biological processes at the molecular level and relevant to the mechanisms of biological regulation of cells, with beneficial applications in medicine, agriculture, industry, and ecology. This symposium features the highly interdisciplinary area of bioelectrochemistry, with contributions from all different aspects of electrochemistry and electroanalysis, and hopes to bring together scientists working at the frontiers of bioelectrochemistry and electrophysiological research.

Topics will include
- Electron transfer in biological systems
- Biosensor development and sensor architecture, including micro- and nanostructures
- Biofuel cells
- Bioelectrochemistry of cells and microorganisms
This symposium is also of interest to researchers working in the areas of the disciplines of biophysics, biotechnology and medical biophysics, and it is hoped that it will foment fruitful exchanges of ideas and open up new perspectives for future advances.
