Dear Friends and Colleagues,

We are very pleased to announce the 6th Bilateral Seminar Italy-Japan (6th BSIJ-2014) entitled

Physical and Chemical Impacts on Marine Organisms
Supporting Blue Growth
in meaningful mutual symbiosis with the marine environment

which will be held at the Area della Ricerca del CNR, Palermo, Italy, 19-20 November 2014.

The BSIJ is a consolidated meeting point of Italian and Japanese experts investigating the effect of environmental impacts on marine organisms. Researchers will gather together in a friendly atmosphere to report the result of their research, discuss and exchange information.

We also welcome scientists from other EU or industrialized countries (USA, Canada, Australia) as well as researchers from developing countries (India, China, Korea), with the aim of favouring the interactions among the scientific community interested in the preservation and safeguard of the oceans of the world.

In this edition, a Plenary Lecture on global warming and ocean acidification will be given by:

Maria Byrne
Change in the world's oceans: responses of echinoderm development to warming and acidification and analysis of the effects of multiple stressors on marine embryos and larvae
University of Sydney, Australia


The sessions of the meeting will focus on the following topics:

Current impacts in natural environment, effects on marine organisms
(Mediterranean Sea, Japanese Seas, field surveys and analysis)

Response mechanisms of marine organisms to environmental impacts
(From biological communities to tissue, cell and molecular levels)

Analysis of the effects on marine organism caused by environmental impacts
(Model organisms, biomarkers, gene expression analysis)

Sustainable use of marine resources
(Macroalgae, microalgae, bioassays, new biomaterials)

In addition to invited experts, a number of talks will be given by Ph.D. students, post-docs and young researchers, selected from submitted abstracts.
