"BIOLOGY: FROM MOLECULE TO BIOSPHERE"
Kharkiv, Ukraine
28 – 30 November 2018
DEAR COLLEAGUES!
We invite you to participate in the XIII International Conference of Young Scientists "Biology: From Molecule to Biosphere", which will take place in Kharkiv on 28 – 30 November 2018.
Conference organizers: Faculty of Biology and the Scientific Society of Students, Postgraduates and Doctoral Students of V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University.
Students, postgraduates and young scientists (under 35 years of age) conducting research in various fields of biology (including biomedicine and ecology), as well as those working in the field of biological education, are invited to participate in the conference.
The form of participation is in-person. Conference participants may choose one of two forms of presentation: 1) oral presentation, 2) poster presentation.
Working languages of the conference: Ukrainian, English.
The conference program covers the following areas:

plant physiology and biochemistry.

Travel, accommodation and meal expenses are covered by the sending institution or at the participants' own expense.
A scan or photo of the registration fee payment receipt must be sent to the organizing committee's email address, with the payer's full name mandatory.

Poster formatting. The poster size must be 84.0 × 59.4 cm (A-1 format). Each poster must include: title, full name(s) of the author(s), authors' addresses (including e-mail). Materials for affixing posters will be provided by the organizing committee.
The conference secretariat submits the received participant abstracts to specialists in the relevant fields for peer review. Reviewers ensure that the abstracts meet current scientific standards. The text of the abstracts must make clear why the work was carried out, what methods were applied, what material was processed, what results were obtained, and what conclusions follow from these results. As a consequence of these requirements, abstracts must be concise and substantive.
Based on the reviewers' conclusions, abstracts may be accepted unchanged or with minor editing, sent for revision within a short timeframe (to be agreed with the conference secretariat), or rejected. In the event of rejection, the registration fee will be refunded minus postage costs.
We draw your attention to the fact that ecology is a biological science about interactions; its objects are ecosystems, communities, populations, organisms — and by no means the environment as such or its pollution.
