The 1st NIBB-Princeton Symposium under the title "Proteomics, Metabolomics, and Beyond" will be held on Nov. 1st and 2nd, 2011, at the Okazaki Conference Center, Okazaki, Japan. This is the inaugural symposium of the academic exchange program between NIBB and Princeton University.

This symposium is designed to connect Princeton University with NIBB and Japanese researchers, and we hope it will lead to collaborations in scientific activities between them. This event will provide a venue to exchange information and discuss the development of powerful ‘omics’ approaches, mainly using mass-spectrometric technology, and its future application in solving biological problems.

In addition to the invited speakers, poster presentations are welcome from participants, some of which may be selected for short talk opportunities. Your participation is sincerely welcome and is essential for the success of this meeting.

We look forward to seeing you in Okazaki next November.
