We are very happy to invite you to the 10th Basic Science of CF conference 2013, which will take place in Malaga, Spain.
13 km from the city of Malaga and forming part of its bay with a coastline of almost 7 km, lies the territory of Torremolinos, formerly a district of Malaga and a separate municipality since 1988. Its location between the bay of Malaga and the spurs of the Mijas Sierra protects it from the north winds. Torremolinos enjoys a privileged setting to which it owes the temperateness of its climate, a truly wonderful climate that offers mild temperatures with a daily average of 19 degrees during the winter months.
During this conference you can expect to hear about recent unpublished results and engage in discussions of data and ideas in an informal and interactive environment. A key characteristic of the conference is the high attendance of young participants, both PhD students and post-docs, who contribute enormously to the success of this annual event with their enthusiasm and vivid discussions. So if you are a young researcher we strongly encourage you to join us, and to submit your current research. You will have excellent opportunities to discuss your data, interact and discuss science in a great atmosphere with the best of European and International experts in this field.
This year’s programme includes a number of symposia with international experts covering topical aspects of basic research in cystic fibrosis together with invited talks from submitted abstracts; there will also be two key-note lectures as well as informal and interactive special interest group discussions and workshops. For two evenings we will finish the day with poster sessions and a chance to win the best poster prize! This combination has been extremely successful in the past and the conference offers a forum for informal brain-storming-type discussions.
We welcome all scientists, not just from the field of CF research, but also from a diverse range of related topics, to an exciting conference of high scientific quality.
We look forward to seeing you in March 2013 in Andalucia.
