Registration for Adhere2 is open!
Following the success of Adhere1, a European-wide conference focused on cell adhesion, and the unanimously positive feedback we received on the format, location, and atmosphere, we are delighted to announce that Adhere2, the second in this new series of meetings, will take place in 2025!
Adhere2 will be held from September 3 to 6, 2025, in the same beautiful location, the 3000-year-old city of Zadar, on the Croatian coast, at Hotel Kolovare.
Adhere2 embodies a collaborative and dynamic concept, fostering interaction and knowledge-sharing. It will follow the same format as Adhere1. There will be no invited speakers, except for the plenary speaker. Instead, Adhere2 will determine its own content based on contributions from those who attend. The program featured concise lectures delivered by Principal Investigators eager to share their research, complemented by poster sessions that showcased the work of PhD students and Postdocs. These sessions fostered lively discussions and idea exchanges in a relaxed and engaging setting, enhanced by refreshments and a welcoming atmosphere.
Similar as 2023, the registration fee will include meals during the conference, encouraging social interaction among participants, as well as an organized boat trip and ample networking opportunities.
Thank you so much for considering participation in Adhere2! We look forward to seeing you in Zadar!
Best regards,

The Adhere conference is a new meeting series with the aim of bringing together the European cell-matrix adhesion research community and is organised by three researchers in the field: Andreja Ambriovic-Ristov, Vassiliki Kostorou and Ben Goult.
