This annual meeting will cover cutting-edge topics in all branches of astronomy, as well as in interdisciplinary fields. Lectures will be in one of three forms, i.e., plenary lectures, parallel-session reports, and public outreach talks. The plenary speakers are invited by the SOC, while the talks in parallel sessions are recommended by the chair of the corresponding session. The meeting will be organized based on eight parallel sessions, as follows:
1> radio astronomy
2> solar and planetary astronomy
3> stellar and galactic astronomy
4> Instrumentation, time-keeping
5> astro-mechanics and astrometry
6> high-energy (astro)physics
7> galaxies and large-scale structure
8> astronomical history, education, and public awareness of science


If you wish to attend the meeting, please register and submit your abstract ONLINE. For more details, please wait for further notification.
