                  | In the last few decades, plasma and laser technologies have made remarkable
                  progress in various applications such as material analyses, thin film formation,
                  and nano-scale processing. Recently it has been recognized that these technologies
                  could have also significant impact on biological and medical sciences and
                  technologies. The current level of interaction among plasma/laser scientists
                  and biological/medical scientists, however, may still be insufficient and
                  more close interaction among experts in these fields could open up new
                  opportunities of applications of plasma/laser technologies in biology and
                  medicine. In view of this, we have organized this Workshop to promote open
                  discussion among scientists interested in these fields. In the 3rd Workshop
                  on Biological Applications of Plasma/Photon Processing (BAPP-3), we have
                  planned a variety of invited presentations regarding biological/medical
                  issues on which plasma technologies may possibly have significant impact,
                  as well as other presentations with broader perspectives.
