Center for Residency Training and the Committee for
International Relations of Diskapi Yildirim Beyazit Training and
Research Hospital will take place from July 10th through 16th.
This meeting is titled “The Workshop on the Health of Boren
from Medical Geology Perspective”. The effects of boren on
cellular, tissue and organ level will be discussed by the
prominent authors in the world. We are willing to gather the
graduate and postgraduate students and researchers with the
prominent scientists of the subject and help improve the
knowledge and the experience in this regard. In order to
promote experimental studies, an animal model on the use of
boren on the rats will also be taught beside intensive
discussions and lectures on the theoretical subjects.
This activity will take place at the conference
hall of the research laboratory at the Etlik Campus of the
Diskapi Yildirim. Beyazit Training and Research Hospital. The
program is available on our website (www.diskapieah.gov.tr).
The registration for the hand-on course is closed due to limited
