Sun Protection Conference London

9 - 10 June 2015, London, United Kingdom


Introduction
Can Nature help us to develop future sun protection strategies?

The first sunscreens protected against sun burning and were essentially UVB protectants with low factors that allowed easy tanning of the skin.

Modern sunscreen products may still provide highly heterogeneous attenuation of the suns rays not necessarily consistent with the quality of electromagnetic radiation experienced in nature.

As an industry we have been driven by the quantity of protection as indicated by the SPF and not necessarily the quality of protection. A level of UVA protection is now a requirement for most markets worldwide, but is this sufficient in terms of quality and quantity of broadspectrum protection? Are there other wavelengths that we should consider in our protection strategies? What does natural protection tell us about the biological need?

This is the 13th in the series of international Sun Protection conferences held biennially in London.

It will be an important meeting for all professionals interested in sun protection, including R&D managers and directors, dermatologists, marketing and product managers, retailers of sun care products, regulatory affairs personnel, formulation chemists, product valuation scientists, research scientists, raw materials suppliers and suppliers of sun product testing apparatus.

Speakers are of international reputation and include scientists, regulators, sun protection specialists, dermatologists, national regulatory authorities and product developers from the sun care industry.
