The European Drosophila Research Conference (EDRC) is the main scientific conference for the European fruit fly research community. It takes place every two years in a European city and draws between 600 and 800 delegates from all over the world. After Barcelona (2013), Heidelberg (2015), London (2017), and Lausanne (2019), the 2023 edition will take place at the International Congress Center in Lyon, France.
The EDRC covers the whole breadth of Drosophila research, from evolution and development through to neurobiology, immunology, metabolism, and cancer research. It acts as a major conduit for scientific communication in Europe and has a strong training remit as the majority of platform speakers are chosen from abstracts submitted by early career researchers.
We wish to organize a conference where the latest developments in Drosophila-related biology and technologies will be presented.
