Dear colleagues,
This is the first announcement for ISEPEP3 (the 3rd International
Symposium on the Environmental Physiology of Ectotherms and Plants,
August 24-28, 2009, Tsukuba Japan). Feel free to pass this on others who you think may be interested in attending.
I am making arrangement for the registration fee around 250 US$
(including morning/afternoon tea and lunch, conference dinner, booklet
of abstract etc.).
As accommodation hotel fee in Tsukuba City Center will be around 70 to
100 US$ per person and per night. I may negotiate with these hotels
asking for symposium price, but usually direct booking through internet
turns to be cheaper. Let you know more detailed information on the
accommodation and also the excursion through the updating ISEPEP3 homepage.
ISEPEP3 homepage is

I want ISEPEP3 to be as fruitful as possible. Your advice and
suggestions are very much appreciated.
