Largely following the successful format of the last CBE6 in Woods Hole, the scientific program will count on keynote lectures by experts from worldwide, invited to present their latest work, news and perspectives on different topics related to chemosynthetic ecosystems.

A series of oral and poster presentations will be selected by the Scientific Committee from the abstracts sent by the participants, covering seven main topics.

We hope this Symposium will be a great opportunity to increase connections to worldwide initiatives, and to bring the vast array of chemosynthesis-related science to the attention of undergraduate and graduate students, as well as early-career scientists.
