How to get
We are happy to announce the meeting of the Polish Zebrafish Society. The meeting will take place in Warsaw, at the International Institute for Molecular and Cell Biology in Warsaw on the 26th and 27th September 2019. The meeting is not only for the members of the Society but for everyone who is using or interested in using or just fascinated by the zebrafish model organism. The two-day meeting will include state of the art lectures, oral presentations selected from abstracts and a poster session. We encourage PIs, post-docs, PhD students and just budding scientists to attend the meeting.
Don't miss the opportunity to meet and network with colleagues in Poland that share your zebrafish interest!
Conference fee:
-100 PLN for PZS members
-150 PLN for non-members of PZS
- for PhD students free of charge (the PhD student is exempt from the conference fee only if the abstract is accepted)
