Osheroff (1996 Nobel Laureate in Physics, USA), Prof. Dr.Richard Robert Ernst (1991 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry, Switzerland), and Prof. David Gross (2004 Nobel Laureate in Physics, USA).
Around 500 students from Asian countries are to participate in the ASC 2008, having a theme of "See the Future, Be the Future".
The gathering is expected to be a 6-day inspiring and life changing moment for the 500 Asian students, who will learn from Nobel Laureates and other world class scientists in the fields of Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Medicine.

Rao (on Learning Science), Prof. Jiunâ€Huei Proty Wu (on From Einstein to Modern Cosmology), Phyliss Osheroff (on Recent Advances in Biotechnology Research), and Prof. Masatoshi Koshiba (on 21st Century Science from Asia).
The idea of the Asian Science Camp was co-proposed in September 2005 after the 55th Annual meeting of Nobel Laureates and Students in Lindau, Germany, by Professor Yuan-Tseh Lee and Professor Masatoshi Koshiba.
The proposal expressed the aim to enlighten science talented youths through discussions and dialogs with top scholars in the world, and promoting international friendship and cooperation among best young students of the next generation in Asia.
