Dear Colleagues
On behalf of the Korean Cell Stress Society (KCCS) and the Cell Stress Society International (CSSI), we cordially invite you to attend the biennial International Workshop on the Molecular Biology of Stress Responses, to be held on June 1 through 4, 2010 in Hanwha Resort in Seorak, South Korea. The Seoraksan National Park is in a beautiful part of Korea. This meeting is primarily targeted at students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty from Korea and the region, and is part of an initial step in the creation of a Federation of Cell Stress Societies in Asia. Past workshops were extremely successful in establishing collaborations among laboratories of different countries.
The workshop will begin on Tuesday, June 1 with an overview course for those participants with little to no knowledge of stress proteins, followed by an opening ceremony and reception. The scientific sessions, Wednesday through Friday, will consist of presentations by invited speakers and participants and one or two poster sessions. We will conclude the workshop with a farewell party on Friday night. In addition to the wonderful scientific program we have lined up, we plan to offer social activities throughout the week. And for those who arrive early, or want to stay later, we will provide information on sightseeing activities in the beautiful country of South Korea.
We sincerely hope that you will join us at this exciting conference, and I look forward to your prompt response.
Contact Helen Neumann for additional details.
The Fourth International Congress on Stress Responses in Biology and Medicine, Sapporo, Japan, sponsored by the CSSI and the Japanese BSSR, was held October 6-9, 2009, in Sapporo, Japan. The Tenth Anniversary of the CSSI was celebrated. The meeting attracted approximately 250 participants. By all accounts, it was a great success.
Chairman: Noriyuki Sato, MD, Ph.D.
