Invitation

Dear friends and colleagues:

On behalf of the organizing committee, I'd like to cordially invite you to participate the Annual Conference of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine International Society - Asian Pacific Region (2008 TERMIS - AP). This annual event will be held at the Chien-Tan Overseas Youth Activity Center, Taipei on November 6 through 8, 2008. The weather in Taipei at this time of the year is usually pleasant with a temperature around 20oC.

In this Conference, there will be 3 plenary lectures and 36 invited lectures offered by distinguished speakers from Asian Pacific countries, North America and Europe. The topics to be covered include tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, stem cell technology, cellular/genetic therapies, drug delivery systems and bioreactors.

With your kind support and participation, we believe that we can make this Conference successful. Besides the scientific program, we'd also like to invite you to enjoy the culture, scenery, and hospitality of Taipei, especially for those who have never been to Taipei before. I certainly hope that there will be enthusiastic discussion and dialogue on the recent progress and future perspective of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in this coming Conference. Also, I wish that the friendship and the communication among all participants would last forever. Finally, I look forward to seeing you all in Taipei in November.

With warmest regards,

Ging-Ho Hsiue, PhD
Distinguished Chair Professor.
