The 24th International Conference on Subterranean Biology has the official hashtag #24ICSB, please use it to refer to this conference.

Call for workshops   We seek proposals for pre-conference workshops to be held in the 24th  International Conference on Subterranean Biology at the University of Aveiro, Portugal. Workshops will be exciting parts of ICSB meetings as they offer great opportunities to disseminate and learn about cutting-edge topics in subterranean sciences. Workshops can be either in the form of a full or half-day and ideally would offer conference attendees opportunities to expand their knowledge in specific applications, topics, and opportunities for networking. Workshops will be held on August 18-19th, the days before the official beginning of the conference. (more…)
