About the Workshop

This is the first time that we gather distinguished ecologists from both Taiwan and Japan to form a workshop.  The purpose of this workshop is to facilitate interactions among ecologists from both countries.  The workshop serves as a platform to discuss important ecological and environmental issues in the 21th century.  This workshop also aims to cultivate exchanges of ideas among scientists and students. 

Contribute Talks/Posters

Contributed talks are welcome for the Conference. Each talk is 30 minutes with 25 minutes presentation and 5 minutes reserved for questions and answers. For those who are interested in contributing a talk, please use Online register system to submit your title and abstract by December 3rd, 2008. We shall decide the contributed talks by December 5th , 2008.

Students and other participants are encouraged to contribute a poster presentation. The abstract submission and deadline for poster presentation are the same as the contributed talk (see Registeration).
