Abstract
12th Socratic Lectures symposium took place online on January 11, 2025. It featured five plenary lectures, 12 scientific sessions, a poster session and a newly introduced session called “The student zone”. As we received more than 40 papers, The Proceedings of the 12th Socratic Lectures is organized in three parts. Part I contains mainly papers from the medical fields, Part II contains mainly papers from the natural and social sciences and Part III contains standard operating procedures of a pipeline for assessment of extracellular particles. The pipeline was designed within the project Nanostructurome. Socratic lectures thus present an important meeting point for the participants of various projects and for the publication of scientific results, opinions, repositories, and any kind of documents that are useful in the management of the projects. But in the first place, the 12th Socratic lectures were a meeting point for scientists, artists and friends from many different fields.
