15th International Congress of Biorheology

& 8th International Conference on Clinical Hemorheology

May 24-28, 2015 Seoul, Korea

You are cordially invited to attend the joint meeting of the ISB and the ISCH which will be held on the campus of Korea University, Seoul, Korea from May 24‐28, 2015.

As with prior joint meetings, the congress aims to cover all aspects of bio‐ and hemo‐rheology. Basic science and clinical investigators in these or related fields are strongly encouraged to join this meeting and share recent advances in research.

Participants will have an opportunity to interact with prestigious plenary and keynote speakers and to attend outstanding oral and poster presentations.

Additionally, a variety of social activities will be offered including an opening reception, a banquet and a conference tour. A program for accompanying individuals is also being planned.

We look forward to meeting you in Seoul, Korea in May, 2015.
