We are pleased to announce the SEA-EU-NET Symposium on Dengue on 5 August 2010 in Kuala Lumpur. The primary objective of the workshop is to bring together scientific experts to identify opportunities for collaboration.
The symposium will serve as a platform for a co-ordinated and joint approach between researchers specialising in different disciplines. The primary objective of the workshop is to bring together scientific experts to identify opportunities for collaboration and form consortia to bid into the upcoming EU FP7 funding calls on Dengue.
