Description
WCC is held by World Federation of Societies for Chronobiology (WFSC). The purpose of the Federation is to strive, in all countries, to promote education and the attainment of the highest level of knowledge and understanding in the field of chronobiology. Chinese Society for Biological Rhythms (CSCB-CSBR) will co-host this event with WFSC. CSCB-CSBR has a large scope of experts of around 100 groups in more than 40 institutes in China, from microorganisms, botany, animal science, physics and mathematics etc., with their contributions to scientific community but also by social influences. Our goal is to organize a scientifically vibrant meeting that advances our knowledge of biological rhythms by top presentations and by lively discussions. The over-arching theme of the conference will be “Chronobiology: Translation Opportunities and Challenges”
