MEDAMI2020 venue and travel information The town of Portorož (= the harbor of roses) (Slovenia) adjacent to Piran, one of the most picturesque small towns along the Adriatic coast, has first become known as a health and cure location under the K.U.K. monarchy in the 19th century benefiting from its natural healing factors as offered by the Adriatic sea, the clear air and the neighboring salines of Sečovlje. More recently, Portorož has developed into a city of science and education with a number of facilities located directly in town or nearby, such as the Faculty of Maritime studies and transport of the University of Ljubljana. Piran, just adjacent to Portorož, hosts the National Institute of Biology, and a Marine Biology Station. In Koper, 15 km from Portorož, there is a center of the University of Primorska, which also has a faculty in Portorož. In Izola, just 7 km from the Conference location, one can find the faculty of Health Sciences of this university with an affiliated hospital, covering the whole Slovenian Adriatic region. As a result of this concentration of academic institutions Portorož became a preferred place for scientific conferences, workshops, meetings and summer schools. Most recently, the following conferences have been or will be held here: • ANIMMA 2019, International Conference on Advancements in Nuclear Instrumentation Measurement Methods and their Applications, June 17-21, 2019 • 28th International Conference Nuclear Energy for New Europe, NENE2019, Sept., 9 - 12, 2019 • 27th International Conference on Materials and Technology (ICM&T), Oct. 16 – 18, 2019 • TBMCE 2019 International Conference on Technologies and Business Models for Circular Economy, Oct. 24 – 25, 2019, • 8th European Congress of Mathematics, July 5 – 11, 2020 • EMBEC2020, 8th European Medical and Biological Engineering Conference, June 14-18, 2020 We are excited to now also add MEDAMI 2020 from September 7th to 9th, 2020 to this impressive list of events and to welcome you at the conference center of Grand Hotel Portorož, a hotel with a tradition of hosting such events and extensive meeting and exhibition facilities.
