The 14th International p53 Workshop from October 27-31, 2008, will be held at Fudan Crowne Plaza, Fudan University, Shanghai City, China. The p53 workshops have been held biennially, in different cities around the world, for the past 26 years. They have served as important events and opened new research avenues for basic and applied bio-scientists. The 2008 workshop will feature new, exciting, and unpublished basic, translational, and clinical research findings by internationally recognized scientists. This workshop will serve not only as a forum for researchers to share their latest findings relevant to p53, but will be an important experience for students and postdoctoral fellows who are working in this area. A number of travel fellowships for students and postdocs will be available and awarded based on the quality and impact of the submitted abstracts. For those who are interested in travel awards, please pay the registration fee and submit the abstract by June 1, 2008.
Fudan Crowne Plaza at Fudan University in Shanghai has a great conference facility, poster viewing stations, and food services. Rooms at Crowne Plaza and a number of hotels near Fudan campus will be available at a very affordable price for conference attendees. Shanghai, meaning “the City on the Ocean”, is one of the most prosperous, dynamic, modern and exciting cities in the world. We look forward to welcoming you to Shanghai in October, 2008.
