Welcome to JDRC14!

You are cordially invited to attend the 14th Japanese Drosophila Research Conference (JDRC14), which will be held online from September 13 (Mon) to 16 (Thr), 2021. JDRC14 aims to provide an opportunity to learn the latest Drosophila researches and to network among Drosophila researchers in Japan. We also welcome non-Drosophila researchers who are interested in Drosophila studies.

It is regrettable that the meeting cannot be held face-to-face in Tsukuba due to the current situation of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, as the organizers, we will do our best to make the meeting a place for active exchange, and we would like to invite you all to participate and make presentations.

We have already closed the abstract submission system, and received 141 abstracts. Thank you very much. We will be announcing the details of the conference after the program is prepared.

About the time schedule
Whereas we have fixed the exact schedule yet, we plan to have our scientific programs from 8:45 am to 6:30 pm Japan Standard Time on each day. We understand that this may be inconvenient for people living in the US and Europe, but we would appreciate your understanding. The program at a glance will be announced on the web page as soon as it is decided.

We are looking forward to seeing you, and hope this meeting will be an exciting time for Drosophila researchers even online!
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us!
