It was held during 7-13 June 2009 at the Kussharo Prince Hotel in shore of Lake Kussharo in the Akan National Park, which provides quiet environment and natural wonder of forests, calderalakes,mountainsandanactivevolcano.ThiswasthefirstICOLSto be held in Japan, previous meetings having been in Vail, Meg`eve, Jackson Lake,Rottach-Egern,HotSprings,Capri,Hangzhou,Innsbruck,Snowbird, Palm Cove, and Telluride. The conference was attended by 153 delegates from 19 countries in- cluding, Austria, Australia, Brazil, China, Denmark, France, Germany, Is- rael,Italy,Japan,Netherland,NewZealand,Russia,SouthKorea,Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Kingdom, and United States. The scientific programincluded 11 topical sessions with 32 invited talks including 2 “se- lected poster” presentations and two poster sessions with a total of 112 posters.Intheseproceedingswegatheracollectionoftheinvitedtalksand “selected poster” presentations from ICOLS2009.
