NIG International Symposium 2016

This event is sponsored by National Institute of Genetics (NIG) and held as the NIG International Symposium 2016.

Tokyo Symposium at Institute of Industrial Science, the University of Tokyo

Force, Information and Dynamics: X factors shaping living systems

Exploring frontiers of quantitative biology by identifying X-factors that shape living systems

Quantitative biology is a growing discipline goes beyond the quantification of biological phenomena and attempts to unveil fundamental and general principles governing living systems.

After decades of emphasis on the study of GENES to reveal such principles, recent advances in quantitative biology have shed light on other key factors in biology, designated as X-FACTORS. X-factors include FORCE and SYMMETRY, which control the shape, size, and movement of cells and tissues, and INFORMATION, which characterizes processing and transduction of intra- and inter-cellular signaling. Enumerating such X-factors represents a milestone in quantitative biology.

In the Tokyo Symposium, we shall focus on X-factors in biology. This symposium was designed to share and discuss our vision for the frontiers of quantitative biology with cutting-edge researchers from around the world. We expect active discussions on state-of-the-art techniques to measure and manipulate X-factors and on the integration of different X-factors, leading towards a deeper understanding of the nature of living systems.

Date: Jan 9th - 11th, 2016.

Jan. 9th 13:00 to Jan. 11th 12:00

Registration is OPEN(Dec/10/2015)

Registration from here.
Please be sure that the above registration and abstract submission are both ONLY for Tokyo Symposium.
For the registration and abstract submission to the other workshops and symposium, you may visit the other sites (Events). Seating capacity: Approximately 150, excluding invited speakers ( approx. 20 people ).

Poster Abstract submission deadline: Dec. 10th thr. 2015

For a poster presentation, please submit your abstract from here.
After the deadline, we will still open the opportunity for poster presentation. Please feel free to submit your abstract and bring your poster. Late coming abstracts may not be included in an abstract booklet.

Poster Size & Schedule

The size of poster board is w 1130[mm] × h 1630[mm].
Standard A0 (841[mm]×1189[mm]) or B0 (1030[mm]×1456[mm]) size poster is recommended.
You can put your poster from 12:00 of Jan 9th. Please remove your poster at the end of the mixer and poster session on Jan 10th.
If you are planning to bring the same poster to Mishima Symposium, A0 size should be fine.

Please include your photo on your poster so that participants can know who you are.
