Welcome to Nagoya, Japan
On behalf of the local organizing committee, I cordially welcome you to the 21st Annual Meeting of the International Society for Gravitational Physiology (ISGP) to be held in Nagoya, situated in the center of Japan. The meeting will be held in Nagoya International Center and Hotel Castle Plaza, both located just close to Nagoya JR (Japan Railways) Station with recently inaugurated high-rise twin towers. You may not lose your way looking up conspicuous twin towers.
Four symposia and two satellite symposia will be organized during the meeting along with voluntary oral and poster presentations. Japanese astronaut Chiaki Mukai, M.D. will present a special lecture on "Space in Our Future". Participants are invited to social events including Welcome Reception, Gala Dinner, Celebration Party, and Regional Tour to Ise-Shima National Park with a visit to Ise-Jingu, the oldest and most important Shinto shrine in Japan dedicated to the imperial household.
The beginning of April, the period for the meeting is the best season in Japan with cherry blossoms full in bloom. Nagoya and its vicinities are where the three greatest governors of feudal Japan, Nobunaga Oda, Hideyoshi Toyotomi and Ieyasu Tokugawa were born and original Japanese culture has grown up. Nowadays Nagoya has become a modern city with aerospace and automobile industries. We hope that you can enjoy not only the scientific meeting and discussion, but also our culture and traditional way of living.
We are looking forward to seeing you in Nagoya.
Tadaaki Mano,
President of ISGP

The registration fee includes participation in:
Transportation
There are airport buses available from the Nagoya International Airport to and from the JR (Japan Railways) Nagoya Station. The fare is 870 JPY. The running time is approximately 30 minutes. It takes 10-15 minutes on foot from the bus stop of JR Nagoya Station to the Hotel Castle Plaza. The participants can also use a taxi from the airport to the station. The taxi fare is approximately 5,000 JPY.
From Tokyo International (Narita) Airport, the Limousine Bus service and Airport Shuttle buses are available to JR Tokyo Station, the fare is 3,000 JPY. JR operates special limited express services on the Narita Express (NEX) from Narita underground station to Tokyo underground station in approximately 60 minutes, the fare is 2,940 JPY. Tokyo and Nagoya stations are connected by Shinkansen bullet train in 1 hour 40 minutes by Nozomi Superexpress (11,140 JPY) or 2 hours by Hikari Superexpress (10,380 JPY). The through fare from Narita Airport to Nagoya is 13,650 JPY (Nozomi) or 12,890 JPY (Hikari).
From Kansai International Airport (KIX), JR operates limited express Haruka to Shin-Osaka Station, where train exchange is available to Shinkansen for Nagoya with through fare of 8,430 JPY (Nozomi) or 7,970 JPY (Hikari).
Refer to Map 1 from Nagoya International Airport to Nagoya Station, Map 2 from Nagoya Station (or Meitetsu Bus Center) to Hotel Castle Plaza and Nagoya International Center, and Map 3 for the information on underground pass around Hotel Castle Plaza and Nagoya International Center.
ATTENTION
If you take a taxi to the hotel, be careful to tell the taxi driver the exact name of the hotel "Hotel Castle Plaza" slowly, because there is another hotel with similar name of "Hotel Nagoya Castle", which is located rather far from JR Nagoya Station.
Information to Chairpersons
