Introduction

Welcome to the workshop on "From Research to Application, Towards Better Management of Snake Related Injuries & Envenomation." As we explore the intricate world of snakebite incidents, this gathering serves as a pivotal platform to bridge the gap between cutting-edge research and practical application.

Our mission is to foster a collaborative environment where experts, professionals, and enthusiasts can exchange insights, innovations, and best practices in the field. Snakebite remains a significant public health concern globally, and by converging our knowledge, we aim to advance strategies for improved management and mitigation of snake-related injuries.
