We are pleased to announce the Cold Spring Harbor Asia conference on Frontiers in Single Cell Genomics will be held in Awaji, Japan, located approximately 60 km west of Osaka city.
The conference will begin in the evening of Tuesday November 5, 2024, and will conclude after lunch on November 8, 2024. The conference will include eight oral sessions and one poster session covering the latest findings across many topics in Single Cell.

We encourage abstracts to contain new and unpublished materials.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 to attend our international meetings since they are likely to benefit most from meeting other international colleagues in the same field. A certain number of presentations by graduate students and postdocs in this conference will be selected as fellowship (USD $100-$500) awards after the meeting to off set the registration fee. Announcements of the awardees will be made during the Banquet of the meeting.
We look forward to seeing you at Awaji, Japan in November, 2024.
