More than thirty years after the 6th International Conference on Copepoda in Oldenburg, Germany, the World Association of Copepodologists (WAC) is bringing the international copepod research community back to Europe. We are truly honoured that Napoli and the Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn (SZN) have been chosen to host this important event. The choice of Napoli is also deeply connected to the history of copepodology itself. The 16th ICOC will bring together researchers, taxonomists, ecologists, molecular biologists, students and young scientists from around the world to share discoveries, exchange ideas, renew collaborations and build new connections within the global copepod research community, focusing on one of the most abundant and ecologically important groups of metazoans on our planet. |
