Abstracts on a wide range of topics will be solicited, to promote lively debate and academic exchange on current issues in many fields. |

|
|
| NEW! ISHAM2009 will launch a unique concept to provide a forum dedicated to brief poster presentations, in addition to the regular poster exhibitions, to give poster presenters a valuable opportunity to explain their research and findings in front of an audience of colleagues from around the world. Case reports are particularly welcome. We look forward with enthusiasm to welcoming many up-and-coming researchers to these sessions. |
