For more than 3 years now and the BioKMT has been organizing an annual meeting on the advances in Biological sciences. The aim of these
meetings is to bring/gather Egyptian Scholars who are doing their research in top leading institutes to come and talk about their work , personal and professional experience and set guidelines on
from where to start developing Egypt scientifically.
This year we are honored to have 9 Egyptian Scholars addressing a wide spectrum work in Biological sciences.Regardless of what Egypt is witnessing in terms of
political split.We all agreed to work together to deliver a message that whatever can divide us... Science and passion of knowledge can bring us all together.
