Conference Description
The Animal-Microbe Symbioses GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
The Animal-Microbe Symbioses GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on new unpublished results at the very frontier of symbiosis research. The unique format of our 5-day GRC is designed to maximize productive interaction and discussion between scientists. The meeting is held at a small and relatively isolated location in Italy to minimize distractions and transportation issues. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field. The GRC will be accompanied by a Gordon Research Seminar (GRS). This GRS is a 2-day event predating the GRC that will enhance scientific education by attracting the brightest young minds in symbioses to network and exchange cutting-edge ideas in a highly-stimulating and non-intimidating environment.
