Abstract submission:

The majority of the talks will be given by invited speakers but some talks will be chosen from openly submitted abstracts. Abstracts should contain only new and unpublished material and must be submitted electronically by the abstract deadline. Selection of material for oral and poster presentation will be made by the organizers. Status (fellow's talk/poster) of abstracts will be posted on our web site as soon as decisions have been made by the organizers.

Stipends:

We are eager to have as many young people as possible attend since they are likely to benefit most from this meeting. We have some funds to partially support graduate students and post docs. For detailed information, please visit the webpage athttp://www.csh-asia.org/stipends.html. Stipends will only be available for participants with abstracts.
