We should now start to pay attention to individual differences in these physiological parameters, which should be considered not as errors, but as natural variation between individuals. Therefore, we have to make efforts to study the biological characteristics that can explain these similarities and differences. To face this challenge, we have to consider factors affecting morphological and physiological polymorphisms along with the concept of the eternal triangle as discussed by Professor Paul T. Baker. So our task is to establish a methodology for Physiological Anthropology in order to meet this challenge. The organizing committee extends a very warm welcome to you. Do join us in Delft in August 2008 where the main theme will be "Human Diversity: design for life" Registration & deadlines The deadlines for registration and submitting abstracts are as follows: early registration: before 2 May 2008 normal registration: before 4 July 2008 submitting an abstract: before 30 May 2008 All congress delegates and invited speakers must register and pay in advance of the congress.
