A scientific meeting bringing together young researchers at national and international levels.
📅 April 18–19 2026
📍 Acıbadem University
Purpose
The Life Sciences Congress, organized by the Acıbadem Mehmet Ali Aydınlar University Molecular Biology and Genetics Club (ACUGEN), aims to promote science as a shared objective through an original and creative platform based on free and open scientific engagement.
The congress seeks to encourage participants to contribute to global science by addressing national and global priorities while adhering to scientific and ethical principles. By highlighting national and international collaborative research activities and project-based studies conducted by distinguished academics, the congress aims to inspire the development of impactful, responsible, and socially conscious scientific work.
Theme and Topics
The ACUGEN 5th Life Sciences Congress is structured around a central theme exploring the future of life sciences at the intersection of artificial intelligence technologies and space biology. This theme emphasizes the use of artificial intelligence in biological data analysis, the effects of space environments on living systems, and innovative research emerging from the convergence of these two rapidly evolving fields.
The congress aims to strengthen interdisciplinary interaction and scientific collaboration by bringing together artificial intelligence–assisted approaches and space biology–oriented research across a wide range of disciplines, including molecular biology, bioinformatics, neuroscience, and biotechnology.
