Dear Colleagues and Friends, 

On behalf of the Asian Society of Andrology, I would like to extend you a cordial invitation to attend the First Asia-Pacific Forum on Andrology to be held on 17-21 October 2002 in Shanghai.  

The Forum will offer a perfect occasion reviewing the current status of andrology development in Asia-Pacific region and in the whole world as well. The Scientific Committee has been working diligently to prepare a well-rounded programme and world-renowned scientists have been invited to give talks. It may be of special interest to you to gain a deeper insight into researches pertinent to the use of traditional and herbal medicine. The timing of this meeting could not be more appropriate when scientists interested in the field are requiring up-to-date information to chart their way forward in the new century to meet the challenges that novel developments bring.

 Shanghai needs no introduction as a tourist and epicure attraction. It was founded about 2,500 years ago as a small village by the name of Shen and is now the biggest and most modernized city in China with an excellent combination of vivid Chinese tradition and modern development, and a climate that comforts the heart. You will enjoy antique temples, ancient bazaars, typical Chinese dishes and well-known jade Buddha, together with the high-tech industry, aerial tramway and skyscrapers. Holding this important meeting amid such exciting surroundings, coupled with the already keen interest worldwide, promises to make the gathering one of the most memorable and stimulating occasion in the history of male study.

 We shall exert every effort to provide attractive scientific, social and cultural programmes to make your stay in Shanghai exciting and unforgettable.

 Looking forward to meeting with you in Shanghai!
Sincerely,



Shao-Zhen Qian, M.D.
