European Phycological Congress (EPC8)
Every four years, the international phycological research community gathers for a congress. This time, we all met at the picturesque coastal city of Brest, located in western France. The meeting provided a great diversity of talks spanning from algal ecology, cellular biology, and biotechnology to the relationships of coastal communities and the wider public with algae. The meeting had a great choice of talks, with multiple panels running at the same time, and showcased an impressive choice of posters.
From our lab, Onyou, Charlotte, and Justin presented well-received talks, and Matt, Sabina and Abi presented their posters, which led to many interesting conversations.
