Your experiences about the travel processes(Providing ticket, accommodation,...) : |
the ticket was too expensive without any support from the university, unfortunately. |
Please give a briefing of your own observations and outcomes of the congress: : |
the meeting was preparing a variety of lectures, symposia, and workshops. Attendees learned about new findings in Toxicology via platform and poster sessions, settings where they can closely interact with other scientists in intense-yet-friendly atmospheres. In addition, the Annual Meeting will be playing host to a huge exposition where attendees introduced to new technologies and products that might be useful in supporting their research.
During this ongoing period of continual integration of new knowledge and technology into Toxicology, it has become clear that there is a growing need for greater scientific precision during investigations that could contribute to the protection of people from various chemical hazards. Throughout its past annual meetings, the JSOT is proud to have been a forum for meeting participants to convey their latest scientific achievements in the field of Toxicology. Continuing along this line, the main theme for the 41st Annual Meeting has been set as “Translation from Basic to Applied Researchâ€. |
