In the contemporary landscape, the presence of atmospheric particles and chemicals in urban air signifies a looming peril to our well-being, inducing immune disruption and cellular-level toxicity. Unveiling under the banner of "The Peril of Fine Particles," this symposium is poised to unveil cutting-edge research findings on the health hazards emanating from airborne toxic substances. Transitioning from our previous emphasis on the biological impacts on respiratory and sensory organs to the intriguing theme of "New Encounters," this conference will bring together experts spanning molecular biology, environmental science, medicine, and engineering. These luminaries will partake in insightful discussions, exploring sustainable solutions to effectively confront the menace posed by fine particles.
