Advanced Diagnostics Forum
Report for the "Advanced Diagnostics Forum"
In collaboration with A*STAR: the Singapore Agency for Science, Technology and Research, JAIMA held a forum " Advanced Diagnostics Innovation" on 24 March (Monday) 2014 in Singapore.
70% of the participant are researchers, members of the A*STAR. Others are from venture companies at Biopolis, or nearby visitors from universities as well as some foreign countries. The total participants are 130, (the Application Registrations are 198). As a very successful PR, the forum strengthened a presence for advanced Japanese analytical measurement technologies of Bio related instruments.

In collaboration with the (A*STAR) Singapore Agency for Science, Technology and Research, JAIMA will hold the forum on the theme of "The Advanced Diagnostics Innovation" in March 24 (Monday), 2014 in Singapore.
| Date | : 24 March 2014 Monday 9:00 - 16:40 |
| Singapore Venue | : A*STAR (Breakthrough and Discovery Biopolis, Matrix Building) |
| Organizer | : JAIMA (Japan Analytical Instruments Manufacturers' Association) |
| Co-host | : A*STAR-BMRC |
| Registration | : Free |
The Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A
STAR) is the lead agency for fostering world-class scientific research and talent for a vibrant knowledge-based and innovation-driven Singapore. ASTAR oversees 14 biomedical sciences and physical sciences and engineering research institutes, and six consortia & centres, located in Biopolis and Fusionopolis as well as their immediate vicinity.
JASIS (Japan Analytical & Scientific Instruments Show) has newly been renamed in a commemoration of the 50th holding celebration of the Analytical Instruments Exhibition (JAIMA EXPO organized by JAIMA: Japan Analytical Instruments Manufacturers' Association) as well as the 35th holding in Tokyo of the Scientific Instruments Show (SIS organized by JSIA: Japan Scientific Instruments Association).
JASIS is now trying to establish a new program named "Advanced Diagnostics Innovation" in order to accelerate in near future advanced diagnostics using an analytical instrumentation, high technological devices, tools and chemistry at the new market creation in 2013. JASIS will have a great opportunity to make any business alliance possibility between Japanese industry and ASTAR/Biopolis where a lot of interesting applications are developed at an increased rate.
We wish the Advanced Diagnostics Forum will be able to give you a great opportunity to open a door in your business development in Life Science market.
