USE2008 Symposium on Ultrasonic Electronics

This symposium was first held in December 1980 to bring together experts from diverse fields of ultrasonics, including both fundamental and applied topics. Since then, more than a quarter of a century of innovations in ultrasonics have been presented and discussed at this symposium. The symposium consists of oral and poster presentations in a single session. Since 2004, the symposium has widely accepted English papers and presentations from all over the world, and one day of the three meeting days is reserved for such an International Session. Moreover, since 2006 all poster sessions have been presented in English. Over 250 papers and 400 participants are expected, including an invited talk by a distinguished lecturer from the IEEE UFFC. Authors of presented papers are eligible to submit a regular paper or a communication to a Special Issue on Ultrasonic Electronics of The Japanese Journal of Applied Physics (JJAP). Young Scientist Awards will be selected from the papers presented at the symposium, and the Best Paper Awards will be selected from papers published in the Special Issue.

We welcome you to Sendai, the City of Trees. We hope you will enjoy a very pleasant and fruitful stay in Sendai.
