Invitation Letter
Biotechnology and Biological Engineering are coming into an exciting era as enabling technological platform for green industry, lowcarbon economy, health care and environment-benign society. In order to promote the international cooperation in above mentionedfields, the 2010 International Symposium on Advanced Biological Engineering (ISABE’2010) will be held in Beijing, China, from July 23rdto July 25th 2010. ISABE’2010 is jointly organized by Tsinghua University, China, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan, and coorganizedby Biotechnology and Business. ISABE’2010 is also commissioned to bridge the academic research activities in biological engineering,biotechnology, nano-biotechnology, biomedical technology, environmental bioengineering, biofuels and microalga technology, andfood biotechnology to various industrial practices, e.g., biomass-based chemicals, bioenergy, biopharmaceuticals, health care andenvironmental bioremediation.
On behalf of the organizing committee, I am honored to welcome all of you to ISABE’2010. It will be a great pleasure to refresh ourmemories of the established ISABE in the past, share the up-to-date advances in both fundamental researches and engineering practices
and to project the areas where we may contribute to our better life and planet. I look forward to meeting you in July and wish you all apleasant and fruitful stay in Beijing.
Sincerely yours,Prof. Xin-Hui Xing
Chairman of the Organizing Committee
