Cold Spring Harbor Asia (CSHA) is the Asia-Pacific subsidiary of New York based Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL). Inaugurated in 2010, CSHA is dedicated to promote international scientific exchange in the Asia-Pacific Rim by offering scientific conferences and advanced training courses with highest quality.
CSHA is pleased to announce the Cold Spring Harbor Asia-Mechanisms and Functions of Non-apoptotic Cell Death, which will be held at the Suzhou Dushu Lake Conference Center (CSHA’s exclusive venue) in Suzhou, China, located approximately 60 miles west of Shanghai.
The conference will begin at 7:00pm on the evening of Monday April 15, and will conclude after the lunch on Friday April 19, 2013.
The conference will include eight oral sessions and one poster session. Many talks will be selected from the openly submitted abstracts on the basis of scientific merit and relevance. As a tradition of CSHL, ample social events throughout the conference will be provided in order to facilitating the cross-pollination of scientific ideas.
On the afternoon of April 16, before the poster session (1:30pm to 2:30pm), Dr. Anke Sparmann from The EMBO Journal will host a workshop on “EMBO's transparent editorial process, publication ethics, and how to get a paper published in a high level journal”. Anyone who’s interested in this topic is welcomed to attend the workshop.

GSK Travel Award:
We’d like to draw your attention to the very generous support we have had from GSK for this meeting. We have been provided with 50 travel awards up to $500 for this meeting’s registered participants that will cover the expenses of the conference, room and board. Awards will be selected by the committee based on the scientific merit of abstracts. After submitting their abstracts through CSH Asia's on-line system, applicants should indicate their interest by sending an e-mail to Xi Shen ([email protected]) by Thursday February 28, 2013. Confirmation of interest will be confirmed by e-mail. We will try to let you know the selection results as soon as possible through this webpage and email. Thank you!

We encourage abstracts to contain new and unpublished materials. The abstracts must be submitted electronically by the abstract deadline. Selection of material for oral and poster presentation will be made by the organizers. Status (fellow's talk/poster) of abstracts will be posted on our web site as soon as decisions have been made by the organizers.
Fellowship:
We are eager to have as many young people as possible attend since they are likely to benefit most from this meeting. A certain number of presentations by graduate students and postdocs in this conference will be selected as fellowship (USD $200-$500) awards. For more details, please visit Stipends
We look forward to seeing you at Suzhou in April 2013.
