Call for participation of young investigators
# We expect young investigators from Korea, China, Japan, and other East Asian
countries to attend this symposium.
# There is no clear definition about "young investigator". Graduate students, post-docs,
junior faculties are our main expectations. However, if you think you are young, it is OK!
# There is no registration fee for this symposium.
# Participants should cover one's travel expence (air flights, trains, bus, etc.) between
one's plance and meeting venue, namely, OIST Sea Side House.
# Organizing committee will provide free two-night stay (Aug. 10-11) at OIST Sea
Side House for all young investigators who will attend this symposium. This includes
free meals as follows: dinner on Aug. 10, breakfast, lunch, and dinner on Aug. 11, and
breakfast and lunch on Aug. 12.
# All young investigators are expected to present posters.
# Organizing committee will choose some young investigators to give short oral talks
during this symposium.
# All talks and discussions will be in English.
