Dear friends and colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that the Eighth International Chrysophyte Symposium will be held on August
12 - 17, at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. The symposium will provide a forum to present work on all aspects of chrysophyte investigations including biodiversity, evolution, ecology, systematics, and experimetal morphology. Although the overriding theme of the symposium will be focused on chrysophytes, researchers whose primary focus is on any allied heterokont group will be also welcome.

There will be opportunities for participants to present both short talks and posters, which will be conducted interactively with plenty of time reserved for questions and discussions. Presentations of research-in-progress by young investigators are strongly encouraged. There will be no concurrent sessions. Any suggestions for coverage of specific topics in a workshop or panel format will be welcome.

As in the previous chrysophyte symposia, the proceedings will be published as a separate volume of the Nova Hedwigia, Beiheft.
