Abstract
South Korea is a country exemplified by a combination of upscale new technology and ancient mysticism. The busy streets of Seoul hustle and bustle like any large, active metropolis, yet the city's inhabitants radiate an intrinsic sense of peace, creating a timeless atmosphere. The combination of emerging technology and profound respect for the Korean culture and heritage makes this country a unique environment in which to organize a successful scientific meeting. Cell Stress Society International, in its quest to cross the cultural frontiers of science and propagate research on the stress response, partnered with the newly created Korean Cell Stress Society to hold the 8th International Workshop on the Molecular Biology of Stress Responses on June 1–4, 2010.
