We would like to take this opportunity to cordially welcome all to join our 10th anniversary Prince Mahidol Award Congress to be held at The Imperial Queen’s Park Hotel in Bangkok , Thailand from 1st –3rd February 2002. The Prince Mahidol Award was inaugurated in 1992 by the Prince Mahidol Award Foundation under Royal Patronage, with Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn as president, to recognize the leadership and outstanding achievements of world class scientists who have contributed to the world community in medicine and public health. During the past 10 years, The Prince Mahidol Awardees have been selected for their eminent achievements and their awards have been conferred by His Majesty King Bhumipol each year during the last week of January. This year is the 10th anniversary of the Prince Mahidol Award, and thus, a special scientific congress is being organized to commemorate the event.

The title of this 10th anniversary congress for the Prince Mahidol Award is “Medicine and Public Health in the Post-genomic Era” . The topic of this congress was carefully chosen to highlight the recent and rapid advancement of molecular biology and achievements in sequencing the genomes of humans and other organisms. These advances will have an immense impact on the future of medicine and public heath all over the world in each and every community. The congress has invited eminent scientists to give addresses on topics such as genomic medicine and control of tropical diseases, bioinfomatics, pharmacogenomics, nutrition in the post–genomic era, emerging disease surveillance, social and ethical issues in the post-genomic era among others. Congress participants will share the most up – to – date information in the post-genomic era and have the opportunity to carry out in-depth discussions with world class scientists.

On this very special occasion, we would like to extend a whole-hearted welcome to all those interested in joining the congress on “Medicine and Public Health in the Post-genomic Era”.
