Abstract:
The 4th Italian Zebrafish Meeting took place in Palermo from February 7 to 9, 2024. The primary aim of this meeting was to bring together a diverse group of principal investigators, young researchers, facility managers, commercial vendors, and others to provide an important forum for presentation and discussion of the most innovative and exciting scientific research currently ongoing in Italy using the zebrafish model. Nonetheless, the meeting program has been conceived to allow the dissemination of cutting-edge scientific research across a wide range of topics and to shed light on its future directions, without geographical boundaries. Indeed, people from various parts of the world joined the meeting, and 210 participants presented their latest work in talks and posters. Importantly, the meeting had designated time to foster open scientific exchange and informal networking opportunities among participants of all career stages, thus allowing initiation of new collaborations and strengthening of existing partnerships. The meeting was a tremendous success as testified by the highest participation ever since the first meeting of the series in 2017, coupled with the highly positive satisfaction rating expressed by the attendants.
