33rd LISBON International Conference on Nursing, Medical & Veterinary Sciences: LNMVS-26

Call for papers/Topics

Topics of Interest for Submission include, but are Not Limited to:


1. Foundational Sciences 

These subjects provide the essential biological and chemical understanding required across all three fields.

  • Anatomy & Physiology: Comparative anatomy (differences between species) and systemic physiology.

  • Biochemistry & Molecular Biology: Metabolic pathways, genetic expression, and cellular function.

  • Microbiology & Immunology: Bacteriology, virology, mycology, and the body’s defense mechanisms.

  • Pathology: The study of disease processes, cell injury, and tissue repair.

  • Pharmacology: Pharmacokinetics ($PK$) and pharmacodynamics ($PD$), toxicology, and drug interactions.


2. Nursing Sciences

Nursing focuses on the holistic care of the patient, clinical management, and the human response to health conditions.

  • Clinical Nursing Specialties:

    • Medical-Surgical Nursing

    • Critical Care & Emergency Nursing

    • Pediatric & Neonatal Nursing

    • Geriatric Nursing

    • Obstetric & Gynecological Nursing

  • Nursing Theory & Ethics: Patient advocacy, nursing models (e.g., Orem, Nightingale), and bioethics.

  • Community & Public Health Nursing: Health promotion, disease prevention, and home health care.

  • Nursing Informatics: Managing data and technology to improve patient outcomes.


3. Medical Sciences 

Medicine focuses primarily on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of human disease.

  • Internal Medicine: Cardiology, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology, Nephrology, and Pulmonology.

  • Surgical Sciences: General surgery, Orthopedics, Neurosurgery, and Anesthesiology.

  • Diagnostic Sciences: Radiology (imaging), Hematology, and Clinical Chemistry.

  • Psychiatry & Behavioral Health: Mental health disorders and psychotherapy.

  • Preventive Medicine: Epidemiology and lifestyle medicine.


4. Veterinary Sciences

Veterinary medicine addresses the health of all non-human animal species, from pets to livestock and wildlife.

  • Small Animal Medicine: Canines, felines, and avian/exotic pets.

  • Large Animal & Production Medicine: Equine, bovine, porcine, and small ruminants (sheep/goats).

  • Veterinary Surgery: Soft tissue, orthopedic, and specialized equine surgery.

  • Zoological & Wildlife Medicine: Conservation medicine and rehabilitation.

  • Theriogenology: Animal reproduction and obstetrics.


5. Interrelated Topics 

The modern scientific community increasingly views these fields as a single ecosystem known as One Health.

  • Zoonotic Diseases: Diseases that jump from animals to humans (e.g., Rabies, Avian Flu, Ebola).

  • Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR): How antibiotic use in both livestock and human medicine affects global drug efficacy.

  • Comparative Medicine: Using animal models to understand human diseases and vice-versa.

  • Epidemiology & Biostatistics: Tracking disease outbreaks across populations (human or animal).

  • Bioethics & Animal Welfare: The ethics of clinical trials, animal testing, and end-of-life care.

  • Global Health Security: Food safety, food security, and international health regulations.
