Abstract Due April 10, 2015The conference will include eight oral sessions and one poster session covering the latest findings across many topics in metabolic biology. Abstracts with new and unpublished data are encouraged. Selection for short talks (10-20) and poster presentations will be made by the organizing committee on the basis of scientific merit and relevance.

FellowshipsWe are eager to support as many junior scientists as possible. Certain number of presentations by graduate students or postdocs in this conference will be evaluated for fellowship awards (USD 100-500). For more details, please visit http://www.csh-asia.org/2015meetings/Metabo.html
