How green can a zebrafish lab really be? 💧 🐟
Aquatic facilities rely on flowing water, pumps and filters running day and night, but small, clever changes can make a big difference.
Interested to learn what you can do?
Join us next month for the second webinar by the Young Researchers Committee (YoRC) of the European Zebrafish Society (EZS) & International Zebrafish Society (IZFS) to discover how you can rethink sustainability in practice.
Our speakers, dr. Kathleen Whitlock, dr. Maximilian Breuer and dr. Viviana Vedder, will share practical tips and inspiring examples on how lab can save water and energy, reduce waste, and shrink their environmental footprint, without compromising animal care or research quality.
Whether you’re a group leader, researcher, or facility manager, or simply care about making science more sustainable, this session will leave you with fresh ideas and strategies to implement in your own lab.
When? November 6th, 5 PM (CET)
Where? Free online Zoom Webinar: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_tGuZ7wq_S8WC0dkAGJuU3g (Registration is free but required!)

Welcome!
On behalf of the European Zebrafish Society (EZS), we are delighted to welcome you to the 13th European Zebrafish Meeting, which we are organizing in Wien/Vienna. It has been a wonderful tradition to host these large international meetings in different places across Europe, and Wien is of course a fantastic site to have this meeting. The organizing team is very much looking forward to the event, and to the opportunity to meet so many colleagues in person in Austria.
As the other meetings before, this meeting will have its own local flavor, but the unifying scheme over the years is the excellent and topically diverse science that is on display. As usual, we have a full program with plenary and parallel sessions, workshops and award lectures. There are additional measures to support PhD students, post-doctoral fellows and junior staff.
We would also like to thank the sponsors and exhibitors, who play a vital role at these meetings and continue to support our conferences.
It will be an intense few days of scientific and social interactions, and we hope you will enjoy this exciting meeting and a trip to Wien!
