Other Meetings of Interest
We are delighted to announce the upcoming congress commemorating the 100th anniversary
of the first description of the
entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema kraussei by Gotthold Steiner in 1923
(Steiner, 1923). This event will be a unique opportunity to celebrate a century of scientific achievements in the field of nematology and entomology. Join us in celebrating the centenary of the discovery of Steinernema kraussei and contribute to the advancement of knowledge and solutions for sustainable agriculture and pest management.
The congress will be held in Logrono, Spain from Wednesday 10th April, 2024 until Friday 12th of April, 2024. Organized by Raquel Campos-Herrera, this event will take place right before the 2024 meeting of the European Society of Nematologists (www.esn-online.org) in Cordoba, providing participants with an opportunity to attend both events and maximize their knowledge and networking experiences.
We will bring together renowned experts, researchers, and students from around the world to discuss the latest findings, innovations, and challenges related to entomopathogenic nematodes. Symposia will be organized to include competent experts in the field to summarize existing knowledge and provide valuable insights and perspectives on the history, evolution, and future of nematode research. Poster presentations, workshops and networking opportunities will allow participants to engage with their peers and learn from the best in the field. We look forward to welcoming you to the congress and experiencing an unforgettable celebration of a century of nematology and entomology.

V International Symposium on Fungal Stress (ISFUS)
September 22 – 26, 2024
If your research interest includes fungi, then you should plan to attend the V International Symposium on Fungal Stress (ISFUS) in Iguazu Falls, Paraná, Brazil, from September 22 – 26, 2024, which is hosted by the Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná.
This symposium will feature 44 international speakers from 16 countries. ISFUS is the most international microbiology meeting in Brazil. Most of the speakers are leaders in the field. The quality of the meeting has been compared to the Gordon Research Conference. Furthermore, the magnificent Iguazu Fall is the perfect setting to attract researchers from around the world.
The number of attendees at the symposium is limited to about 150 to facilitate interactions, cross-cutting discussions, and a convivial atmosphere between scientists from throughout the world at all stages of their careers.
Come celebrate and explore the luster of the Fungal Kingdom and the beauty of the natural world.
