About the Bioscience and Biotechnology International Symposium

The main purpose of the symposium is to provide a platform for young researchers and students to engage in cross-disciplinary discussions on leading edge scientific topics to shear new results and ideas. In particular, it will be our pleasure if this symposium provides young researchers with a window of opportunity to obtain new perspectives on their own research works through such interdisciplinary discussion, and contributes to the development of new scientific fields and the fostering of future generations of leaders.
