XIII International
Symposium on Tardigrada
This was the fourth tardigrade congress held in
Italy and the second one in Modena. The Symposium was attended by 96
participants (+15 accompanying persons) representing 25 countries from
four continents (Asia, Europe, North and South America).
During the congress 41
talks (in nine sessions) and 58 posters (in two sessions) were
presented. The topics discussed at the Symposium included taxonomy,
phylogeny, morphology, biogeography, ecology, physiology, molecular
genetics, genomics and life histories.
The Young Scientist Award for the best
oral presentation and the best poster was given to Vladimir Gross
(Germany)
and to
Tarushika
Vasanthan
(Canada), respectively.
