9th International Ruminant Reproduction Symposium 2014 in Obihiro: Call for abstract and registration

Home page: http://www.irrs2014.jp/

It is with great pleasure to announce that the 9th International Ruminant Reproduction Symposium (9th RRS) will be held August 25-29, 2014 at the Hotel Nikko Northland Obihiro in Obihiro City, Hokkaido, Japan. As you may know, the RRS is the most prestigious international conference on domestic ruminant reproduction. The conference is held once every four years, with most-recent conferences held in Anchorage, USA (2010), Wellington, New Zealand (2006), The Crieff Hydro Hotel, Scotland (2002), and Colorado Springs, USA (1998). The symposium will emphasize the most current knowledge and state of the art information on topics relevant to domestic ruminants mainly. Also, it is our consensus that ruminant reproduction directly connects to Livestock Production, so that we would like to start-up the session such as “Pathophysiology and Health in Reproduction”, and “Challenges in Optimization of Reproductive Performance”.

This symposium will be held in Asia for the first time. The thirty-five invited speakers have been selected by the Sub-International Committee that consists of world-leading experts of each scientific area. We would expect 250-300 leading reproduction researchers and students from around the world. We believe this is the most effective and significant “Up-Date” opportunity for reproduction researchers in Noth America, South America, Europe, Oceania, and Asia including Japan.

Home Page has been available from November 22, 2013. Your most recent investigations are hearty welcome to poster sessions. Reviews of the talks presented by invited speakers and the abstracts presented in the poster sessions will be included in the proceedings entitled “Reproduction in Domestic Ruminants VIII”.
