The Young Academy invites you to the 9th Conference of the Scandinavian-Baltic Society for Parasitology

12 01 2021

The Nature Research Centre, together with the Young Academy of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences and the Scandinavian-Baltic Society for Parasitology, is organizing the 9th Conference of the Scandinavian-Baltic Society for Parasitology (CSBSP9), which will take place in Vilnius on 21–23 April 2021.
This biennial event is an official conference of the Scandinavian-Baltic Society for Parasitology. After unification of the Scandinavian and the Baltic societies of parasitologists in Bergen in 2003, the first conference of the Scandinavian-Baltic Society for Parasitology took place in Vilnius in 2005. Fifteen years later, we are happy to host the CSBSP9 in Vilnius again, this time virtually.
The theme of this year’s meeting is ‘Parasites in a Changing World’. The vision of this conference is to create a great platform for both experienced and early-career researchers in the fields of wildlife, veterinary, and medical parasitology and to share interdisciplinary science between researchers from Northern Europe and other countries around the world. The Scientific Committee of the CSBSP9 has developed an excellent programme with focus on global and regional issues in parasitology.
More information about invited speakers and other activities during the conference can be found HERE. We invite you to visit the conference website https://www.csbsp9.eu and to share information with all interested colleagues and students.
We believe that this conference will be of a paramount scientific value: it will offer an excellent opportunity for the exchange of ideas and strengthen scientific communication and collaboration.
