TC session proposals should be sent by e-mail to Toshimitsu Hamsaki: toshi.hamasaki@ncvc.go.jp, with the subject line: ISBS 2019 Topic-Contributed Session Proposal. Proposals should be submitted on or before 15 January 2019. Additional information on the ISBS 2019 is available at https://urldefense.proofpoint.
The selection of TC session proposals is a competitive process due to the limited number of slots.
TC proposals will be evaluated by the SPC, and the organizers will be informed of acceptance or rejection decision by late February 2019
Please note that there are a limited number of TC session slots, and that, unfortunately, the ISBS
2019 is unable to provide funding to cover travel expenses or registration fees for speakers participating in TC sessions. Thank you for your support of the ISBS 2019. We look forward to seeing you in Kyoto.
