We are pleased to inform the participants that the review process has been completed. Email of acceptance has been sent to presenters. We managed to offer everyone a slot for their submitted presentations. We will have 5 concurrent sessions, with a total of 300 oral presentations including some slots for general discussion. A total of ca 80 posters will be presented in two separate sessions (of 40 each). After the afternoon break, Poster presenters are invited to introduce themself and their work during a 1-min (60 sec, no more) postral presentation (from Poster-Oral), thus a 40-min session prior the Poster presentation between.

Additionnally, two general discussions will be held, one about the "www.bioguiana.org network" on Monday 9th, the other about "Women in Science" (ATBC2008 Parity commitment) on Friday 13th at 17:00-18:00.
