Gathering researchers from around the world, BCBMTP will highlight technological innovations that harness the wealth of biodiversity in the Philippines and have useful applications in healthcare and community development.<br />
<br />
It will be an opportunity for interdisciplinary collaboration, connecting evolving fields within the life sciences at varying scales of inquiry, from the molecular level to the ecosystem level, to communicate important findings, foster integrative research, encourage resource protection, and influence national policy.<br />
<br />
There will be plenary lectures by invited speakers and short talks. In the lineup thus far are Dr. Baldomero Olivera (University of Utah), Dr. Eric Schmidt (University of Utah), Dr. Margo Haygood (University of Utah), Dr. Terrence Gosliner (California Academy of Sciences) and Dr. Gary Rosenberg (Drexel University).<br />
<br />
Also included in the conference are poster sessions and multiple events for networking and exchange of ideas among leaders in the field and junior researchers.<br />
<br />
The local organizing committee is composed of experts from the MSI, IB and the Philippine Genome Center while the international organizing committee has experts from the University of Utah, California Academy of Sciences and Drexel University.<br />

The first of its kind, the objective of this activity is to feature the rich biodiversity of Lake Taal, and in doing so, raise awareness of the protection and conservation of these natural wonders. The exhibit will have two setups: a dry exhibit, which will be in the form of informative posters about Lake Taal and its biodiversity; and a wet exhibit, which will showcase live specimens of fishes, amphibians, reptiles, arthropods, and aquatic plants contained in glass aquaria. The former will be held at the UST Museum itself, while the latter will be displayed at the UST Main Building Lobby.</div>

The University of Santo Tomas, together with the California Academy of Sciences, PUSOD, Inc., University of the Philippines - Institute of Biology, Ateneo de Manila University, the Association of Systematic Biologists of the Philippines (ASBP) and the Biodiversity Management Bureau, in cooperation with International Society of Limnology (SIL) will hold the 1st Philippine Symposium on Freshwater Biodiversity and Ecosystems from June 7-10, 2016 at the Buenaventura Garcia Paredes, OP Building, University of Santo Tomas, Manila.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 4-day event will gather international and national experts from the fields of limnology and freshwater biodiversity. We envision it to provide a venue for the dissemination of current research updates on the field from the Philippines and abroad as well as showcase the results of the USAID / NSF PEER Project of the University of Santo Tomas and the California Academy of Science on Lake Taal biodiversity.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This event is going to be held in cooperation with the International Society of Limnology (SIL), specifically the Working Group on Inland Waters of Tropical Asia. As such, we intend to have a special session devoted to Asian tropical inland waters, which can provide opportunities for researchers in the region to interact and collaborate on future projects.</div>
