31th annual meeting
of
Japan Pteridine Meeting
Theme: Pediatric Neurotransmitter Disease
and Pteridines
Time: November 10, 2017
Venue:Shirankaikai-bekkan near Univ.
Japan Pteridine Meeting (JPM) is an academic society for researchers working on chemistry, biochemistry, biology, molecular biology, pharmacology, and medical sciences which are concerned to pteridines and related substances. Since 2005, Japan Pteridine Conference and Japan Cytokine and Neopterin Meeting, both of which have more than 40 years history, have organized a joint symposium every year. On April 2010, the two societies amalgamated into JPM. The 31th symposium of JPM will be held on November 10, 2017 at Shirankaikan-bekkan near Kyoto Univ. in Kyoto.
