Meeting SFBMEc 2013

Dear colleagues,

You are welcome to attend the next meeting of the French Society of Extracellular Matrix Biology that will be held in Strasbourg, March 21-23, 2013. Please note that the meeting will start on Thursday (at 1.30 pm) and will finish on Saturday at noon. English will be the official language.
The aim of this meeting is to promote the interactions within the French community and to promote fruitful scientific interactions with international colleagues by oral and poster presentations on all aspects of the physiopathology of the extracellular matrix (ECM) at molecular, cellular, tissue and organism level. Recognized national and international leaders in the field are invited for key note lectures. Topics covered are development, cancer, dentistry, dermatology and rheumatology amongst many others. Contributed papers will be accepted for presentation either as oral (if selected) or poster; non selected oral presentations should provide a poster. Young researchers are explicitly invited to participate and excellent work will be granted with prizes. Note that students from the University of Strasbourg will have free access to conferences.

Registration is now open and all the documents are available for download below:

Poster Presentations and poster snap-shot

Size poster board: 0.9 meter wide x 1.20 meter high
Poster snap-shot: To encourage poster viewing and interactions between scientists, we will organize a poster-snap shot session. Each one will have the opportunity to present in 2mn the main results of the poster. Two poster snap-shots will be organized (one on Thursday and one on Friday) and the poster viewing will stand on the same day.
