The World Trade Organization (WTO) serves as the only and the most important multilateral institution addressing the rules of trade between nations. In todays globalized world, as trade increases and regional market integration deepens, legal issues of international economic relations are becoming more and more complicated. The issues facing the WTO are widening and go beyond a purely trade dimension. It might reach cross-cutting issues on foreign investment,
environment, food safety, disease control, public moral, culture protection and human right. It is of immense importance for law students to have some broad understanding about WTO laws so as to know the essence of globalization and economic integration. The basic knowledge of WTO is also useful for understanding other fields of law, such as
intellectual property law, service related laws (financial regulations, telecommunication laws, among others), international health law, and public international law. This course will be conducted in English.

Main topic to be discussed:

1. The WTO: History and structure

2. WTO Dispute Settlement

3. Tariffs

4. Quantitative Restrictions

5. National Treatment

6. Most-Favored-Nation Treatment

7. Regional Trade Agreements

8. General Exceptions: GATT Article XX

9. Dumping and Antidumping

10. Subsidies and Countervailing Duties

11. Safeguards

12. Agreement on Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures

13. Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade

14. Trade in Services

15. Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights

The course is designed to cover the fundamental aspects of the WTO law so that participants will be equipped with basic WTO law knowledge and skills.

The summer training camp is an intensive collaborative lab course held once every year. This year this course will take in about 22 students, mostly incoming graduate students from participating PIs lab, but also highly motivated undergraduates. The course will run from August 5th to Aug 29th, 5 days a week, and >8 hr a day. Final presentation will be held on September 4. By the end of the course, the students not only will know their fellow students very well, they will also lean some of the current neurobiology techniques. In the first week, basic neuroscience techniques, such as perfusion, gross anatomy of the brain, stereotaxic surgery techniques, frozen section, Nissl stain, immunohistochemistry of the brain sections, neuronal culture, and behavior methods will be taught. After this preparatory week, the following weeks will be divided into rotations, in 3-day blocks. There will be 4 rotations. In each station, one or two PI will be in charge. In these stations, there will be labs for calcium and voltage imaging of the culture cell, cellular electrophysiology, field potential recording in the brain slice, extracellular multiple single unit, EMG and EEG recording in free moving rats, and functional brain imaging with animal PET and MRI. Hand-on experiments will be emphasized throughout. The summer training camp is an intensive collaborative lab course held once every year. By the end of the course, the students will know the available neurobiology techniques by heart.

Embryology is an old but fascinating subject. From the morphological

observation of chick embryo development to the unravel of the molecular

control of embryonic development in a variety of organisms, we have gone a

long way. However, the more we learn the less we know. It is a miracle to see

how a single cell develop into a fully functional adult. This course is design

to build the ground for students with interest in embryology. We will discuss

the basic principles and molecular controls of embryonic development. In

particular, we will emphasize the progression from immature gametes,

fertilization, cleavage to gastrulation (i.e. the formation of gut). The cell

fate and embryonic axis formation will also be included. The popular

experimental models used by current developmental biologist will also be

examined in detail.

1. Learn the developmental processes, regulatory mechanisms during embryogenesis.

2. Expose to developmental biology research by paper discussion

3. Stimulate scientific thinking by fomulating a proposal

R program offers a powerful tool for analyzing and visualizing data, and in recent years it became very popular among (not only) ecologists. It offers great freedom in handling, analysing and visualizing any type of data, however, it also comes up with steep learning curve of S language and frustration from frequent error messages. This practical course should teach students the basic of R program operation and data visualization.

All materials are available on http://bit.ly/r-ecol The main goal is to teach students basic skills of using R program, and prepare them for more advanced courses where R will be used for data analysis and visualization.

The course is introducing main concepts in vegetation ecology. We will focus on different aspects of plant ecology at the community level, including topics like vegetation-environment relationship, vegetation dynamics, plant invasions, diversity patterns, plant traits, vegetation in the historical perspective, vegetation classification, biomes of the World, vegetation of Taiwan etc. We will discuss also more specific topics including vegetation and climate change or conservation, management and restoration.

The course is focused on senior undergraduate and graduate students, who want to gain theoretical knowledge about vegetation ecology, i.e. plant ecology at the community level. Additionally to theoretical lectures, I will also encourage students to deepen their view and interest by additional suggested readings, as well as moderating discussions on potentially interesting or controversial topics related to vegetation ecology.

Class schedule (preliminary):

1. Introduction to vegetation ecology

2. Vegetation and environment 1

3. Vegetation and environment 2

4. Diversity patterns and ecosystem functions

5. Species interactions in plant communities (competition, allelopathy, parasitism, facilitation, mutualisms)

6. Mechanisms of species coexistence in vegetation (assembly rules, niche- vs neutral, storage effect, priority effect)

7. Group discussion (based on reading required papers)

8. Plant traits at community level

9. Vegetation dynamics (succession, disturbance)

10. Midterm quiz

11. Plant invasions and invasibility of plant communities

12. Vegetation classification and vegetation maps

13. Vegetation of the World

14. Vegetation of Taiwan in the context of East Asia

This course introduces students to the economic analysis of law as a set of tools for analysing laws and understanding the effect legal rules have on the way people behave. This course also explores the extent to which the principles of economics can be used to explain the workings of the legal system and political institutions. Particular attention is paid to apply economic analysis to contemporaneous law and policy controversies in East Asia.

The course neither presumes nor requires a background in economics.

Teaching/Learning Methodology/Methods：The course is organised as an interactive seminar. Student participation is expected and counted significantly towards the final grade. At the end of the course, students should be able to:

_explain basic economic concepts such as demand-supply, Coarse theorem, public choice, moral hazard, adverse selection etc.

_construct and evaluate basic economic models of the incentive effects of different rules and institutions

_apply economic principles in analysis of legal rules and public policy

_identify and evaluate the various economic justifications for and against in the context of novel legal and policy problems College of Law Main Campus *Restrict to graduate students.
