The symposium (scheduled for the SICB meeting in Toronto, January 4-8, 2003) has a number of related goals. It shall honor Peter W. Hochachka for his numerous, pioneering and decades-long contributions to the study of biochemical adaptation to the environment. The symposium shall feature historical perspectives and the latest developments in areas encompassed by the field of biochemical adaptation to the environment. It shall provide zoologists an overview of how, over the past 30 years, the field of adaptational biochemistry has grown from an infant, highly speculative field into one that continues to be fascinating and dynamic, but is now mature, sophisticated, and highly influential. The symposium shall demonstrate that the August Krogh Principle (choosing the species best suited to the scientific question of interest) is alive and well and illustrate the broad range of techniques including nmr spectroscopy, molecular biology, and comparative phylogenetic approaches, used in studies of biochemical adaptation. The symposium shall illustrate how tightly interwoven this discipline has become with various subdisciplines in ecology and evolutionary biology, i.e., that it has become one with the rest of the biological sciences. The symposium shall have 10 speakers who will each give 30 minute presentations. Their lectures shall be written up for publication in American Zoologist.

该专题讨论会（定于2003年1月4日至8日在多伦多举行的SICB会议上举行）有一些相关的目标。 它将向荣誉致敬。Hochachka为他的众多，开创性和数十年来的贡献，生物化学适应环境的研究。 专题讨论会将介绍生物化学对环境的适应所涵盖的领域的历史观点和最新发展。 它将为动物学家提供一个概述，在过去的30年里，适应性生物化学领域如何从一个婴儿，高度投机的领域发展成为一个继续迷人和充满活力，但现在已经成熟，复杂和具有高度影响力的领域。 研讨会将证明八月克罗原则（选择最适合感兴趣的科学问题的物种）是活的，并说明了广泛的技术，包括核磁共振光谱，分子生物学和比较系统发育的方法，用于生物化学适应的研究。 研讨会将说明如何紧密交织这一学科已成为与生态学和进化生物学，即，它已经和其他生物科学融为一体。 研讨会将有10位演讲者，每人将做30分钟的演讲。他们的演讲将被写出来发表在《美国动物学家》上。
