The 3rd SaSSOH, 2015

The 3rd SaSSOH, 2015

The 3rd SaSSOH 2015 focused on the discoveries and advancements in scientific research opening up a new approach to One Health (containing molecular biology, cell biology, physiology, bioinformatics, microbiology, hygiene, and control of zoonosis etc.), which will contribute the health of humans, animals, and environments as well as the disease control. One of the features of the 3rd SaSSOH was diversity of the participants, which included graduate students, post-doctoral researchers, professors and the invited researchers not only from Hokkaido University but also from other universities and research institutes in Asian and European countries, Australia and USA as well as those in Japan, we hope that all of the participants enjoyed this scientific research meeting and that they are fostering their international relationship.
