   biology. 


   THE FOLLOWING TOPICS WILL BE ADDRESSED:

        -     Energy transfer in photosynthesis

        -     Electron transfer in photosynthesis

        -     Energy transfer and exciton interactions in        
              artificial aggregates

        -     Chemical reaction dynamics

        -     Solvation dynamics and vibrational relaxation


The conference will include 22 main lectures by invited speakers.
In addition poster and short oral presentation will be accepted.
