Thank you all for joining the online briefing! Here are the detailed information of BIOMOD 2024, including recorded video from the session. We look forward to receiving your team registration.

Team Registration

  • Team: 30,000 JPY (approx. 200 USD)
  • Jamboree (individual): TBD (see below)

Team Registration (Peatix): https://biomod2024-team-registration.peatix.com/

A fee of 30,000 JPY is due at the time of team registration, payable by credit card via Peatix. Team registration starts April 29. The registration may close early or extend due to the number cap of the jamboree venue.

This year’s individual Jamboree registration fee will be decided based on the number of teams that are willing to attend on-site ($220/person in 2019). Online participation also requires an online registration fee to cover streaming etc. We strongly recommend joining on-site to experience the BIOMOD jamboree fully. Jamboree registration starts in August and is due in September, along with your project title and abstract.

Registrations are only considered complete when payment is received, and a confirmation email is sent.

Schedule
