On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we cordially welcome you to Sapporo, Japan for the ISOTT2008, which will be held during August 3-7, 2008 (www.congre.co.jp/isott2008/).
Oxygen has played the substantial role in the evolution process of biological systems, including human, as the key molecule for energy production and genetic adaptation to the environment. Considering that physiological function of oxygen is extremely diverse, multidisciplinary researches involving basic medical scientists, clinicians, biomedical engineers should be push forward. This is the very “raison d’etre” of the International Society on Oxygen Transport to Tissue, ISOTT.

Retrospect of ISOTT-2006, Louisville, Kentucky, USA
The 34th Annual ISOTT Conference was held in Louisville, Kentucky, USA, during August 12-17, 2006. The local organizing committee was composed of the faculty members, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate and undergraduate students in various disciplines at the University of Louisville, local high school students, and Louisville community volunteers.
For the ISOTT-Louisville conference, in addition to the traditional session topics of ISOTT, a few new topics were introduced, to stimulate our minds: they were Tissue Engineering and Nano-biotechnology. Translational Research component was also included in the program, to emphasize the importance of the translation of the basic science study results to the actual application for the human well being.
