We are pleased to announce that the next annual Swiss Zebrafish Meeting:
16th Swiss Zebrafish Meeting, June 27, 2024, University of Fribourg, Switzerland
This one day symposium will bring together people who are involved in zebrafish research from Switzerland and the surrounding countries. Two renowned speakers have confirmed their participation, Christian Mosimann from Colorado and Gilbert Weidinger from Ulm.
Registration is for free.

Entitled Neural Crest development and disorders: From patient to model system and back again, this international scientific conference is organised by the Ph.D. students of the NEUcrest project, a research and training consortium funded by EU Horizon 2020 program, aimed at deciphering the molecular bases of NC development, developing models of human neurocristopathies and experimental tools for NC research.
Together with an engaging series of plenary talks by leading experts in the field of Neural Crest biology in development and disease, this conference strongly highlights the new generation of young scientists of the Neural Crest research community.
Over the course of 2.5 intense days, attendees can expect exciting sessions and discussions exploring all facets of Neural Crest development, covering the initial phases of NC induction and specification over to NC cell differentiation, and Neurocristopathies. To include a patient perspective to the ongoing research, this conference also invited a speaker, living with a Neurocristopathy to share her experience and her view of the expectations from public and patients for current research.
