On behalf of the organizing
committee, I invite you to participate in the
International Conference on Biodiversity and
Natural Products (ICOB-6 and ISCNP-26) to be
held at the Delta Prince Edward, in Charlottetown,
PEI, Canada. We are well underway with the
planning of this meeting which we hope will
be of great interest to you.
The Scientific Program
will include symposia in areas such as: isolation & structure
elucidation, synthesis, biosynthesis, biodiversity
and discovery of novel metabolites, spectroscopy,
chemical ecology and is being assembled with
the assistance of an esteemed international advisory
committee.
The meeting will consist
of Plenary Lectures, Invited Lectures, Oral and
Poster Presentations. In addition to the exciting
science that will be discussed, a variety of
excursions will be available to view many of
the wonderful sites of Prince Edward Island,
the birth place of Canada’s confederation.

 Prince Edward Island, although
not large, offers all of the modern facilities
and services of a larger province. As long ago
as 1864, Charlottetown was noted for its ability
to host major conferences. Canada's most well-known
conference, the meeting of the Fathers of Confederation,
took place here - a meeting which laid the foundation
for the Dominion of Canada.
Convention delegates
come to PEI to enjoy not only fine meeting and
accommodation facilities, but also world class
live theatre at the Charlottetown Summer Festival
and superb dining in a wide variety of distinctive
settings from traditional mouth watering lobster
suppers to intimate cafes and lively dinner theatres.
Nightlife offers variety and excitement with everything
from harness racing to Irish pubs, rock bands,
and jazz clubs.
 Providing
a warm and homey atmosphere to guests is important
to Islanders and a number of companion / family
programs reflect this value. For those who prefer
to wind down in the evenings, our Island offers
a safe, secure and picturesque spot to simply stroll
and enjoy. Imagine a beautiful sunset on one of
our sandy beaches, a horseback ride through the
fields, or a movie at the old fashioned drive-in
theatre. Visitors to Prince Edward Island frequently
comment on the sense of comfort they experience
while travelling our beautiful province. The friendliness
of our people, our warm hospitality and strong
sense of community combine to create peace of mind
in Islanders and visitors alike.
