NAIST Global COE International Symposium on Plant Biology 2007
NAIST Global COE International Symposium on Plant Biology 2007 - Outline -
The global COE program "Frontier Bioscience Global Program: Adaptation- and Survival-strategies in a Changing Global Environment" has just started in NAIST. We will have the first International symposium of the COE program in October 18-19, 2007. The symposium will focus on the frontier in pant biology and international scientists will be giving talks in various fields of plant biology. You are cordially invited to participate in the symposium.
