The European Phycological Congress series began in Cologne in 1996, and has continued the tradition of bringing together every four years phycologists from across the world from all fields of phycology (including cyanobacteria and algae). The seventh meeting will take place in Zagreb, Croatia.
The event includes plenary presentations, 16 symposia, contributed papers and posters that cover a broad range of topics spanning from algal diversity, ecology, genomics, cell biology and applied phycology.
Two mini-workshops ‘Chlorophyll fluorescence as a popular tool to study the physiological status’ and ‘Handling large genomic datasets’ are included in the program.
