5th International Workshop on Taxonomy of Atlanto-Mediterranean Deep-Sea & Cave Sponges

We are pleased to announce the 5th International Workshop on Taxonomy of Atlanto-Mediterranean Deep-Sea & Cave Sponges to be held in Italy (Rapallo–Genoa) next September. The workshop brings together a panel of world international scientists, experts in the field of Porifera taxonomy, ecology and biology, mainly referred to as deep-sea and cave sponges, from the Mediterranean and Atlantic Seas.

Contributions from other geographical areas are equally welcome.

Each workshop day will be divided into two sessions: the morning session will be dedicated to presentations made by international speakers illustrating their recent research; the afternoon session will take place in laboratory-equipped rooms and will be dedicated to sample preparations and/or observation.

Participants will be able to analyze their own samples and it will be possible to make direct observations and compare opinions with Porifera taxonomists from different countries.

A dedicated poster session is also planned.

There are no registration fees.
